In case you missed the “Entourage” series finale, congratulations. The resolution is the same as it was every week: everything worked out great for everyone. (And in case you’re wondering what song played over the final scene, HBO went deep into its pockets to shell out for Led Zeppelin’s “Going to California.”) Here’s how the AV Club summed it up:
- E is back with Sloan.
- Ari is back with his wife about whom I never cared enough to learn her name.
- Vince is with some beautiful and intelligent and SANE woman with a British accent OR SOME ACCENT I DON’T KNOW HOW TO TELL WHAT ACCENTS ARE.
- Drama likes da pusssaaaaaayyy.
- Turtle.
- Lloyd is still working as an agent at the company Ari just quit and gave over to Babs via yelling.
- Billy Walsh appeared long enough for me to be like, “Remember the fake penis?”
- Everyone lied to everyone else, and somehow, this qualifies as resolution.
What this scene from Joe Mande presupposes is, “What if these horrible, selfish, two-dimensional characters died in a plane wreck?” I watched this video knowing full well what would happen, but I happily laughed all the same because — for just the briefest of moments — I imagined a world where we wouldn’t have to deal with the inevitable “Entourage” movie. It was beautiful.

Said inevitable Entourage movie will have to be better than Bucky Larson.
Everything about that episode was predictable except the Led Zeppelin. I was kinda hoping Sloan’s dad would murder E.
I thought he presupposed that he didn’t die at Little Bighorn.
So the overarching moral of the story is Douchebags be Winnin’?
I don’t know which was worse: The finale to Entourage or the finale to Big Love. OK, I know Entourage was worse, but BL is a close second. And if anyone ever again complains about the Sopranos (or hell, even the Seinfeld) finale, just show ‘em these two finales to get ‘em to STFU.
“Ari is back with his wife about whom I never cared enough to learn her name”
Even the show didn’t care what her name was. She had no name until the second to last episode finally mentioned it.
^Yes, I watch the show. Its not good TV, but it is entertaining and only twenty minutes long which happens to be my attention span.
…then they all headed over to Wahlburgers for a portebello burger and a brew…..
Did they ever explain how turtle got his name? Nevermind, I don’t care.
I was hoping someone would cut from the planes taking off to the planes crashing into the World Trade Center, what with it being 9/11 and all. Then it would all turn out that the whole series took place pre-9/11/01.
I know my opinion matters *so* much in the grand scheme of things, but here are the things I think I think (thank you Peter King)
1) The show is finally over MAYBE
2) I would have rather heard “Tangerine” than “Going to California” as the Led song at the end – maybe because I love Almost Famous and maybe because Tangerine is a better song in general.
3) I always thought Turtle had his nickname because he was fat and looked like a Turtle
4) Did I mention that I am glad that Entourage is over and all my pothead friends will stop talking about the show’s genius and will maybe pay attention to Mad Men or Breaking Bad as the best show on TV rather than Entourage
5) F*** Entourage
6) At least it wasn’t all a dream of a mentally challenged boy
I hope they don’t make a bunch (or any) Entourage movies.
