Thanks Spicolli, I’m sure it actually is good. I just wanted to share my uneducated opinion here on the internet. Probably the main reason I have a vendetta against it is this. I was watching the US Open of tennis with my girlfriend, (she likes it but damnit if the sport hasn’t grown on me) During one of Andy Murray’s matches the cast of Entourage was there and they were interviewed. After Murray won the match he was interviewed and the only thing he had to say was that Entourage was his favorite show and that it was cool they were there. At this point I was kind of turned off to both the show and Murray. I’m sure it really is a good show. Maybe I’ll netflix it sometime.

Hart, you busted my cover. Also, I’m totally crushing on Detective Lassie. Nothing says manly like those men together.

Oops I guess I should read who writes the post before I ask a question to the poster. Sorry Hart didn’t mean to confuse you with Dagger, that could ruin your reputation.

DVR is definitely the way to go. I am not home usually to watch the shows when they actually come on, so I watch them well I am supposed to be sleeping. My dog hates it because it keeps her awake, but she loves Entourage and the Shield.

Hart, I am amazed at this list because I watch and DVR all of these shows. Plus, even better, they all come on HD so I can watch them all on the big screen with Dolby Digital 5.1 surround sound. AWESOME!!!!

Wait…people still plan their lives around shows? Does no one have a DVR? I’m not yuppie with Tivo or anything…but DVR is the way to go. And yes, Psych lives on that DVR. I may or may not have a crush on two or more members of the cast.

Anyone see that new show on Fox called “Fringe”? I missed the first episode, but saw the second. All I can say is meh. It wasn’t great, but not horrible, interesting story line. It is kind of like X-Files redone.

Sorry I couldn’t comment on any of the shows you talked about above Dagger because I don’t watch any of them.

Dagger, are you watching the new Road Rules/Real World challenge, The Island? Or as I like to call it Survivor on MTV. Anyway I haven’t watched any of those since college, but damn they are easy to get hooked on again.

In response to Tron’s post:
Tron, give “Entourage” a chance.

The show is almost exactly how every guy would act if he were given fame and millions of dollars. One of the best parts of the show is that the actor and his friends go to real Hollywood movie star hangouts and celebrities play themselves. Also, each character is unique and their roles are written very well (example: Kevin Dillion as Johnny “Drama” Chase).

Last, but not least: “Let’s Hug it out Bitch” was said in one episode in the first season. That’s it. It just became a pop culture reference and everyone ran around and said it (just like when everyone loved to say “I’m Rick James, bitch” for at least a year). Jeremy Piven is brilliant in this show.

The first season is only 6 or 7 half-hour episodes, and it doesn’t have big, continuous storylines (like Lost or Heroes) . I will be surprised if you’re not a fan by the third episode.

Although I’ve never seen Entourage it looks dumb to me. It looks like the kind of show that tries so hard to be quick witted and cool and ends up being lame and boring. I may be wrong, it seems like lots of people like it, but in my mind its just a bunch of douche bags running around being too hip to be real. That, and the one guy from PCU saying “Hug it out bitch” every five minutes.

NPH would never do that to us.
