Unless you slept through the last 12 years, you have heard of HBO’s hit series Entourage. From executive producer Mark Wahlberg, movie star and burger connoisseur, the series loosely borrows its logline from Wahlberg’s own experience of shooting to stardom in Hollywood.
Vincent Chase (Adrian Grenier) has become the next big film star, and his childhood pals from Queens, New York, hitch their wagon to his rising star. Drama (Kevin Dillon), Turtle (Jerry Ferrara), Vince’s manager Eric (Kevin Connolly), and his high-strung agent Ari (Jeremy Piven) revolve around Vince’s success as an actor. Together, they take on both the strange and surreal in the unfamiliar land of Los Angeles.
Entourage used real-life themes to explore fame, relationships, and, probably most prevalent, male friendship. Although it’s not particularly the most culturally vital series and doesn’t often speak on important issues, these guys will crack you up and those celebrity cameos will have you seeing stars.
