I usually skip over all the Vince and Co. drama and just watch the Ari parts.
Reynolds, I'm a dangerous-minded man on a ship loaded with hurt. Now, why you got me chatting with your peons?

Vince and crew have grown on me. i really didn't like anyone except E the first season. they did a pretty good job of fleshing them out without making them woobies.

They grew on me until this season. Then they turned into every client from hell that I ever had to work with.

Apparently Patton just had to ask nicely:
One episode into its fourth season, HBO's gritty cop drama "The Wire" has been picked up for a fifth and final season.

who here watches Entourage? i fucking love Ari.
raises hand
Just started watching this season (might not have if LUCKY LOUIS - ptoooi - had been on right after DEADWOOD instead). Does anyone know what the deal is with Debi Mazar? She's in the main credits, but I think I saw her twice this season, for a total of two minutes. Was she prominent in prior seasons?
Then they turned into every client from hell that I ever had to work with.
Oof, I can see that. Luckily, I don't have to deal with clients of any kind as part of my work, so I can enjoy the "from hell" part without it inducing flashbacks. Still don't know if I'm supposed to think Vince is the vacuous twit he seems to be, or if they are trying for "free spirit" and failing badly, but I do enjoy Drama and E.

she was pregnant. so she probably took time off to have the baby and such. she's not prominent per se, but she pops up every now and again.

heh! My band just got mentioned on Ed Norris' radio show (he is disgraced former police commisioner who appears on the Wire now as Bunk's fellow homicide detective)! He had the Charm City Rollergirls on and we're playing their championship bout on Sunday. It's just a total Smalltimore moment.

Or, possibly, the detective character is named Ed Norris after the disgraced former police commissioner but the real Ed Norris has appeared on the show. It's all so convoluted.
