Entourage
15 September 2006 by jaksoulIt’s that feeling you get when the band you have liked for ages (and no-one else knows about) releases a single and are suddenly all over the TV. All your non-musio mates start getting into them, before you know it, one of their tracks is on an advert and that ’secret obsession’ of yours is forever tainted.
So it is with the wonderful ‘Entourage’. After a brief namecheck in that oracle of all good american tv (the backpage of the guardian guide), I engaged in a bit of late night scraping in order to furnish a fitting diversion for a relaxing weekend away and struck .avi paydirt.
It’s clever, funny, upbeat and enormously compulsive (I am desperately trying to pace myself and am now just two episodes behind the US). It’s got some amazingly quotable characters who just get better and funnier as time goes by- Ari and Johnny Drama are literally the stuff of legend.
You owe it to yourself to hunt it down on ITV2 (or just advance to go if that’s your thing)
But don’t be telling everyone about it, let’s just keep it amongst friends.
