Seth Green Day made me Blue

I Like It I Don't Like It
After watching tonight's Entourage, I felt blue.  All of our main characters : Vince (Adrian Grenier), Eric Murphy (Kevin Connolly) and Ari Gold (Jeremy Piven) are at crossroads in their career.  Said crossroads represent more than just a paycheck however.

Vincent is finding out that he may not be the actor he thought he was in prior seasons.  Now that he is in a serious movie, he finds that his scenes and lines are being taken away bit by bit by a director who is looking to make a great film.  In the last episode, we thought he was crazy.  Now we are finding out that that is just not the case.  So, Vince continues the trend that has taken him through this season- one of self-doubt and, ultimately, growth.   Will this be a really tough road for him?  Absolutely.  But, in the end, he should end up a much more talented actor and a better man.

Ari Gold is fighting for a friend and for his place in the world.  Funny that I wrote a piece last week about how the women of Entourage are truly in charge.  Ari himself said this more than once on the show tonight.  Did he try and take back some of this power from Barbara (in a scene that I know the college boys will find funny, but did not hold the same punch for me as the same bit Ari pulled on Josh Weinstein a few weeks ago)?  Yes.  But, Barbara still had to agree to let Andrew Klein in, even if it was at Ari's risk. 

What of Eric Murphy?  Tonight found him chasing Seth Green around in what turned out to be a fool's game.  Seth never intended to be in Charlie's (Bow Wow) pilot.   Truly, it seemed the only thing Seth wanted was another shot at Sloan (Emmanuelle Chriqui).    Interestingly, it looks like he might have miscalculated, because, by playing his game, he may have brought Eric and Sloan one step closer to getting back together. 

In regards to Eric and Sloan :  it always bothered me that Sloan was so bothered by how Eric was always running off to do something for Vince.  After all, Vince is his job.  Tonight, she made two jabs that lead me to believe that her character is not able to take Eric's job seriously.  The first was when she said that her boyfriend worked.  As if to say Eric did not work.  The other was when Eric was leaving and mentioned that he was up at Big Bear where Vince was filming a movie.  Sloan made a comment like "of course", as if to say that "of course" Eric would be with Vince (she actually said, as always, but same thing).  Well, he is his personal manager ,isn't he? Where else would he be?  During their relationship, Eric never ran off for a night out on the town with the guys or to hang at the pool.  There was always business that took him away.  Although there seemed to be potential for Eric and Sloan to get back together tonight, it also seemed that she still doesn't get his job.  And, if she truly loved him, why would a 9 month absence (6 months in Columbia and 3 in Italy) make a difference?  Men and Women are going overseas to Iraq and the Middle East and their loved ones wait a lot longer than that, don't they?  

So, I know I digress away from the 27 minute show tonight, but these are things that have been out there for a while, and seeing Sloan and Eric together tonight brought it to the surface.  These two will never move forward until she takes his job seriously and he gets over his jealousy of Seth Green.   And, that makes me kind of blue.

  • I hope they keep E and Sloan apart and find him a woman that supports him in his career- oh, and that can slip into sweats, drink beer, and watch the Islanders with him. That's who Eric Murphy needs!

  • Wow, this picture is intense. Adrian Grenier does look really good in it. Last nights episode shows he can act and his character Vincent Chase maybe not so much. But, there is definitely growth there.

  • OK for a start ladies I know you all are going to hate me but.....Phoaw!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! How goodness damn good does Sloane looks. Oh my gosh, oh my gosh, oh my gosh! Smoking and for some who said the same way about Adrian, I would like to use the same phrase ---- she looks tasty too!!! She looks hot... ok, now let's proceed to normal reviewing... lol

    The episode saw E having to control his emotions and temper for the sake of business..., its hard for a guy, especially when one jealous 'EX' (but apparently not... according to Sloane).

    After much confirmation, and probably what all guys need was that Seth Green did not bed Sloane and never has. So Seth is actually the guy who probably has been very 'jealous' and still is, of E who went out with Sloane and thinks why not him if she chose E. Jealousy is the word, so therefore its Seth lost for losing the plot. I got a funny feeling, Turtle might get cast in it, I dont know why, since the doors are open at the moment and ends up represented by E as well. LOL, that would be funny.

    As for Vince, it seems like his acting skills has room for improvements and the director is just helping him, maybe yes and maybe no. Who knows... maybe Verne sees potential in him, but Vince needs to be taught. It all could be wrong,.... but Vince is back on the learning ladder again. So we just have to wait and see, but as for all actors, there are always room for improvements. So does DeNiro and Pacino.... coz Seriously Kill's story was ... ok , but the acting ... was that tiny far off...., that makes you feel could be better rather than just a paycheck. So back on acting training for Vince.

    As for Ari Gold and Babs... its a funny situation. She is power tripping for sure. She could have acquire a profitable business and try someone out with potential 'some pass record' agent. Why does she not give him the chance? Could it be because of some other reasons?

    But the dressing up of Andrew Klein did not go as well, maybe its to downplay the character so he can deliver something for Ari in the next season... so something is up there (like 'watch this space'). And for Ari to storm into Bab's ceremony is something.. and i bet Ari Gold is known to be some kind of A hole in the industry... LOL, I think???!! LOL

    All in all, I am going to watch this episode again just because Sloane is in it. E for acting like any guy who is a proper gentleman, the only one in the film i must add, and see the development of the characters. I kind of like today's episode, it reaffirms things like Sloane never did Seth Green, Sloane still likes E, E still likes Sloane, and Vince's acting can be improve... that is the only way his character can evolve...not just through his present acting skills, but maturing acting skills... a different skills set to wow the industry and the audience's respect back. Ari's evolving as the main shareholder in the company and learns how to deal with things more politically when working with a woman. They can be so sensitive!!!! hehehehehe

    Sloaneeeeee!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
