Say your final farewells now, for it will be a while before the boys are back in town. HBO's acclaimed program "Entourage," which follows the career of fictional actor Vincent Chase and his best friends, wrapped up its sixth season last night. While Vince, Eric, Drama and Turtle will be back for a seventh season, the wait for its arrival will be just as painful as assisting Vince's agent, Ari Gold (a multiple Emmy Award-winning performance by Jeremy Piven). In order to make the wait seem a little shorter, here are the top five episodes from the first five seasons that will make you say "Yeah, yeah."
"The Script and The Sherpa"
Episode five, Season one
In this episode, Vince struggles between pleasing his girlfriend and his friends as each tries to give him their contrasting opinions on which new movie he should take a role in. It's rather relatable material, as many guys wage an internal battle to please their buddies or their girlfriend. However, the episode doesn't become memorable until Val Kilmer makes a hilarious guest appearance as "The Sherpa," a burned-out hippie who, not surprisingly, has the largest supply of marijuana in California during a drought. The interactions between Kilmer and the rest of the cast are nothing short of hilarious as Kilmer takes the role of the stoner-hippie to a level that rivals Cheech and Chong.
"The Bat Mitzvah"
Episode 18, Season two
While this episode lacks any real guest star power, the main cast is more than capable of delivering all of the laughs. Panic arrives at Ari Gold's door when his retired boss, Terrance McQuewick, wishes to steal Vince as a client. However, this is just another opportunity for Ari Gold to prove yet again what a delightful jerk he is. He pawns off his own daughter to Vince during her Bat Mitzvah in order to shield Vince from any proposals Terrance might spring out. Turtle and Johnny Drama stay true to form as the laughable idiots, delivering quote-worthy one-liners as they get stoned to take advantage of the Bat Mitzvah feast.
