Entourage is finally back. Feels like the summer all over again; like it never left.

I’m not sure why they waited until the end of the summer to Premiere it, but I’m not so mad. It’s been a real long time since we saw an Entourage episode and it was worth the wait. Last season was a little weak–Vinny Chase got real real annoying, and we didn’t see enough of Ari.

Maybe I’m just a dude, but I’m not that into last season’s Vinny Chase–he was too soft, got everything he wanted, and was too much a momma’s boy. But that’s neither here nor there.

Opening scene for Vinny Chase shows him on a beach in Mexico–hooking up with two gorgeous south american chicks, surrounded by blue water, bungalos, and women as far as the eye could see–refusing to come back to the grind of LA.

Ari Gold’s introduction pans to him walking down his hallway, greeted with condescending insincere modicums of moral support from colleagues and staff members, forcing him to stop in his tracks and warn his staff of their immenent firing. Mid-tirade, he interrupts himself and threatens Lloyd’s life for not answering the phone.

It’s really hard to paint an Ari Gold scene-so much of it is in his tone, volume, and unspoken language. Anyways, I love Ari Gold and am glad he was back in this episode in a big way.

E looks like he’s grown up a bit. Turtle and Drama were on point as always.

What a review. Take that Roger Ebert.

We sent some funny t-shirts to the guys on Entourage. I don’t remember which t-shirts specifically, but I know we sent My roommate is gay, Livin the Dream, I’m not a Gardener I just like Hoes, That’s how I roll, It’s my duty to please your booty, Life comes at you fast, Best Buds, Keep the Ration Strong

I think they could do a whole show on the My roommate is gay t-shirt. Turtle wears it out to a bar. Drama shows up. I’m not sure where it goes from there, but I’m taking suggestions.

Thank god Entourage is back.
