Meat Is Murder Vince hustles his way into his next role under Ari's nose and without any worthwhile help from Eric. The titular Entourage is ever less important in each episode. Some vegan fascist shows up and has been dating Vince for months and she's kind of cool but then she goes away again. Val Kilmer shows us his nasty thighs. Drama gets stepped on a few hundred more times. Shauna sides with Ari, foreshadowing maybe the coolest villain team-up since that Batman movie with Michelle Pfeiffer. Except they aren't villains, because Eric? Is an ass. |

Meat Is Murder
The Script & The Sherpa - Vince hustles his way into his next role under Ari's nose and without any worthwhile help from Eric. The titular Entourage is ever less important in each episode. Some vegan fascist shows up and has been dating Vince for months and she's kind of cool but then she goes away again. Val Kilmer shows us his nasty thighs. Drama gets stepped on a few hundred more times. Shauna sides with Ari, foreshadowing maybe the coolest villain team-up since that Batman movie with Michelle Pfeiffer. Except they aren't villains, because Eric? Is an ass. |

Don't Date Big Girls
Date Night - Vince and Justine continue their non-sexy journey to active sexual contact. Ari and Eric square off for the battle over Anna Stern. Drama dates a bodybuilder lady. Ari gets the beatdown from his wife. A crazy girl with no underwear and some fabric of the future flies in from Flagstaff. Radio is irritating, if you live in L.A. Nothing of note happens for thirty whole minutes. Again. |

Things Get Better!
Talk Show - Jimmy Kimmel and Sarah Silverman share their happy, healthy home with us. Emily and Eric take their romance that millimeter further. Sara Foster appears onscreen for the second time ever. Abby from Dawson's Creek throws down some smack, but it's the good kind of smack that she's throwing. Turtle's not even that bad. |

Meet Emily
The Review - Vince gets a bad review, which causes Marvin to tell Ari Eric told him Ari told Eric Vince could buy an expensive car even though Vince can't drive. Jessica "Sno-Cone" Alba hangs out with prostitutes. So do the Funky Bunch. Ari is scary, a little bit. No cute highlights this week, either. David Faustino is still short and sweaty. |

I [HEART]...the HELL?
Entourage - We meet Vince, Eric, Turtle, and the other guy. And Ari's big mean hate-on for Eric. And a big mean dog. And a big mean Ali Larter. Throughout, there are a lot of characters interfering with what I like to think of as "The Eric and Piven Show." And no Anna Stern, as yet. Also M.I.A. is Sarah Silverman, so far. Slow and punctuated by waiting, for characters and viewers alike, and full of bad decisions, ditto, and validating both the Piven, and our love of same: Welcome to the Funky Bunch '04. |
