Entourage 7x01

One of my favorite shows of the moment is back for a seventh season! Just the opening sequence makes me giddy. I’ll be following Vincent Chase and his Entourage the whole summer. Turtle is now operating a car service with sexy drivers – except that one of the girls always gets lost, but Turtle can’t bring himself to fire her. Ari Gold is thoroughly in his element running the biggest agency in Hollywood. He just needs another challenge – and the mail boy offers him just that, the NFL is selling their TV rights, he says. Eric is now happily engaged to his dream girl Sloan, and he’s working at one of Hollywood’s great management firms. Johnny Drama is on a holding deal that will soon expire and there’s no network around that wants to develop a show with him. So, Drama wants Ari and his assistant Lloyd to set up a team to find him the right script. As for Vince, he’s back acting in an action flick. The director pressures him into doing his own stunts, and Vince doesn’t want to chicken out, but Eric and Ari find it unsafe. Ultimately, Vince gets in the car, with the director in the passenger seat. They hop through fire and crash into the set. He returns invigorated, ready to do a retake if necessary. It’s sure nice to see the guys again, but this wasn’t a particularly spectacular season premiere. We’ll have to see where this season will take us. I’m sure it’ll be fun, though.
