sparksjl Kevin Dillon. Where do I begin? But for him I would have rated this series an 8. In a nutshell, no one but now one, plays a loser, like a real life loser. There was no acting required by Dillon for the character of Johnny Drama the loser, hanger on. Turtle was by far a better actor and did a great job in his similar yet unique role. However Dillon oversold what he is in real life. A true LOSER of an actor, just being himself. He was as stiff as cardboard, two dimensional using only two facial expressions, bad smiling attempts and bad frowning attempts to cover the whole range of the character's emotions. He is just another "brother of that other more famous guy" tag along. Except for Dillon I would have truly enjoyed this series and binge watched it over a couple of weeks of down time. Jeremy Piven was the true hinge pin for this series and without him, it would have tanked and tanked badly. YMMVP.S. Update to my original review. I rarely watch Vietnam movies but I watched Platoon because Kevin Dillon was in it. I wanted to be fair to him and see him in a movie and not just a TV series. Guess what? It was Johnny Drama goes to Vietnam or Bunny survives Vietnam and goes to Hollywood. The same wooden performances and 2, count 'em 2, facial expressions for every scene. Bad attempts at smiling and worse attempts at frowning to cover the whole range of "drama". There was no drama in Johnny Drama or "Bunny" because there is no drama, comedy or anything else in the hack known as Kevin Dillon. But bit players with more famous brothers gotta work too I guess. I mean look at Don Swayze and you can get where I am coming from.Yes this review sounds like I'm just Dillon bashing but I tried very hard to enjoy Entourage because Jeremy Piven IS a great actor. But I couldn't because of Dillon's poor attempt at being himself, not acting, not the character, which my dog could have done a better job portraying, but his acting alone. Again YMMV

nazhrp Just watch it and you will not be disappointed!!! This is the best TV show i have ever seen (ever!!!). Every episode is faultless and the emotional attachment to the characters is brilliant. The acting is of the highest quality and the story is well written. This is what a TV show needs to be like, not like the shitty, overrated, long-winded show called: The Walking Dead...etc. I haven't seen a TV show this good since FRIENDS.I haven't seen the movie of the Show but I will. To be honest, I didn't want a movie to be made as I feel it won't be as good as the series and it will spoil the reputation of the Show.

niallh20 Oh how i love this show. It's perfect and the comedy is excellent as is the acting, writing,cinematography,music and direction. Jeremy Piven does a magnificent job at playing Ari. The entourage are mediocre but special mention has to go to Johnny Drama played by Kevin Dillon who provides laughs every episode. The cameos and supporting characters are brilliant as well (Billy Walsh and Matt Damon- my two favorites)The show introduced me to wonderful music from The Verve, Gang Starr and also giving nod to classics from The Ramones, The cure and Rolling Stones.The highlight of the show for me though is the Locations. Going on holidays out to Los Angeles last year gave me the excitement I felt seeing many of the locations used and the show made me want to move to glitz and glamour of Hollywood. Personal favorites were Warner Bros Studios and The house the boys lived in in the first season.Watch the Show and you will be addicted. VICTTTOOORRRYYYY!!!!!

televisionseriesreviews Entourage is a TV series which is vaguely based on Mark Wahlberg's life in Hollywood. Vincent Chase played by the very charming Adrian Grenier is a young and in demand film star. He's represented by Ari Gold, a ruthless agent determined to be the most powerful person in Hollywood. Jeremy Piven plays the role of Ari Gold brilliantly, and admits to have taken many attributes for this character from a real Hollywood agent named Ari Emanuel.Vincents other entourage include his brother Johnny Chase, known as "Drama" who used to be a relatively successful actor back in the day, however his career is now on the down side. Johnny Chase is played by Matt Dillon's brother Kevin Dillon, and his job is now to cook for Vincent and the rest of the crew. Jerry Ferrara plays the role of Turtle, Vincent's driver while Kevin Connolly who plays Eric Murphy, also known as E, is Vincent's manager. The series is made to seem like a reality show most of the times, and although the characters and their situations are of course amplified for entertaining purposes, the lifestyle these four young men live is a true reflection of young Hollywood these days.Like most fans of this show I can't wait for the movie to be released in June this year.
