HBO's Entourage returned this week and was consistently awesome. I'm convinced that Entourage will never die, it is just too cool for death. The premiere kicked off a bunch of new threads withe the Entourage getting pulled in all sorts of directions. Eric is thinking of moving out, everybody's wondering why Drama even has his own house since he's always at Vince's, and Vince has a big premiere and needs his license for a new movie. Llyod is determined to get a promotion, and Ari is prepared to put him through weeks and weeks of hazing to get it. Sadistic douche. Now here is a look at the episodes coming up next month.
