I know people will say I'm crazy, but the characterization in this show is usually so fucking good. All the guys have such distinct, well-written personalities. And their relationships to each other are so well written. It is insanely good in that regard. Yeah, last season Vince was not himself but... I think you could see how certain aspects of his personality could lead down that path. It was just disappointing to watch it happen. They need to fix him for this last season.
I confess though I still think of it as the Ari/Drama show because to me it's like they run the awesome parts. E's brilliant, Turtle... Mrs. Ari, Lloyd is AMAZING but it's like the two of them have these distinct craziness that make for a good comedic tv.
I really liked when Stellan SkarsgÄrd guest starred, he was great.
I mainlined all seven seasons of Entourage last year and am so depressed there's only going to be one more. :( :( But then again stuff was getting pretty crazy (especially for Vince) so maybe that's for the best.
Oh wow I remember watching all that stuff in the beginning. It was so good. There's a sense of genuine EXCITEMENT and 'rooting for the team' that I never got with other shows. I'm just so sad it's ending.
I saw it coming, even from the first few seasons. Vince's assholery was subtle back then but it was there...yet even when I kinda suspected how 7 would end, it still made me feel sad that it ended that way.
I'm guessing a Robert Downey Jr Resurrection rather than a Sheen or Lohan.
Vince does have a sense of aloofness and selfishness that always got him into trouble. I do like him though, despite it. And I love his friendship with E, through the ups and downs. I am really hoping for an RDJ kind of comeback. Go Vince & Company!

But I still enjoyed the entire show as a whole, and am not letting the weirdness of 7 get to me. It was like everyone else but Vince evolved nicely.
