Exclusive: Season Five Look!

Does anyone else remember their respective jaw dropping when Medellin ended up being a failure? When Vince shrugged it off, walked out like a man, only to see his brother getting laid on the beach? Vince's life can only become increasingly worse, both in Hollywood and other respective places. And it does. After accepting the failure of Medellin at Cannes, and word traveling back that it's a colossal failure (the viral marketing shtick on Medellin's official site shouldn't be there, honestly), Vince and Turtle head to New Mexico for some alone time. Meanwhile, back in Hollywood, Eric has to head back and secure a new assistant -- Jane.

As Eric hires his new assistant, Drama is becoming the new Vince. Honestly, this road was inevitable. He has begun filming the new season of Five Towns, and he's recognized everywhere. In fact, the paparazzi are a key player in his day-to-day routine now. Lest we not forget Eric in this haze. Eric has a new client. Charlie -- he's a comedian with a bad attitude, and becomes increasingly upset with Eric, who can't seem to land him work. Anywhere. Either he's horribly unfunny or Eric's neglecting him.

And then... and there's Medellin. Are they recutting the film? Is Walsh coming back? What's the overall reception back home after Cannes? Well -- the result doesn't bode well for our star. After secluding himself in Mexico, reviews are pouring in that Medellin is horrific, and that any studio that would even attempt to recut it is profoundly paranoid.

Let's talk Ari for a moment. Upon his arrival home after a stressful and possibly tear jerking visit to Cannes, the cherry on the sundae is Richard Roeper absolutely trashing Medellin on his show. Ari can't stop hearing about it -- of course, Lloyd is hit with about every known object to man while trying to console Ari about his loss.

But wait, maybe there's that one man who pull Vince from his vast depression over Medellin. Maybe there's that one man who will offer Vince another top notch role. That man is Carl Ertz, a producer who's dying to cast Vince after a complete disaster with losing his lead -- Emile Hirsh. What's the film? Danger Beach. Corny as hell -- but Carl presents the deal of a lifetime to Ari and Vince. A thick, meaty role for Vince to revive his career - and wait, he's willing to pay Vince top dollar! How do you turn something such as that down?

You don't. And they don't. Ari sets a time and date for Carl to meet Vince -- but unbeknownst to Carl, Vince is missing in action. Thus bringing Eric and Drama back together, and chartering a flight out to New Mexico to find Vince and bring him back to reality.

They find Vince. Who's been wasting his vacation away fucking hot Mexican women. Okay, maybe not wasting away. Of course, in usual Entourage style, everything is resolved quickly -- after a quick heart to heart between Eric and Vince -- they fly back to L.A. to meet with Carl.

Vince does end up meeting with Carl. Per usual, Vince is on his behaviour and ignites his puppy dog eyes to win Carl over. Nothing is decided -- except that Vince doesn't want the title to say Danger Beach. He seems to prefer High Tide. Carl doesn't seem to mind. Again, Ellin and the writing crew are very smart. They aren't attaching Vince to anything. Or holding him down.

Oh, and as for Vincent's reputation in Hollywood? Poor. Very poor. Every agent seems to smirk at the idea of representing Vince. Obviously Medellin took a large tole on his career... and possibly Ari's as well.

As I said before, the fifth season will change everything in Entourage. With Drama becoming the sole income of the family. With Eric finally finding success as a manager. With Vince watching his group becoming more successful on their own. And Turtle still using his friendship with Aquaman to get laid.

And that's all in the first episode.

Silo? They don't say, but I imagine it was kept out because they are planning something for it.

Ya, I wonder if the studio dropped Silo because of the Medellin reaction and I wonder if Harvey is making it good.

good to see drama is succeeding but i always thought it was funny that drama was based off donnie wahlberg. I could only imagine donnie constantly talking about his new kids on h block success before his movie career took off

Dude drama was so not based on donnie wahlberg. Drama is based upon well Drama the real Johnny Alves if you watch season 2 mark wahlberg sessions tey have the real johnny drama there(who was actually mark and donnies cousin) From what I hear drama on the show is an exact replica of the real DRAMA..... It's turtle's season not lloyd's.

"I am the fucking game bro"

its still funnier to think of him being based off of donnie wahlberg maybe they'll have him make a viking quest movie as a homage to new kids on the block getting back together

Looks like this will be Lloyd's season seeing as he has his name in lights in the main credits now.
