"Entourage"

“Entourage”, HBO’s Academy Award Winning series, chronicles the life of freshly A-listed movie star Vincent Chase as his navigates through the unfamiliar setting of Los Angeles guided only by the brother like loyalty of his hometown crew from Queens, NY whom he brought along for the ride.

The series is loosely based on Mark Walburg and his real life experience with the main premises behind the show. “Entourage” wittily tells stories of major career decisions and social setbacks all underpinned by the concrete loyalty and steadfast dedication of Vince’s two best friends and older brother who make up the group. With his cut throat spinster agent always a phone call away, and his best friend nominated as his manager, every decision becomes one made by the group. They succeed together, and they fail together in a dedicated allegiance to each other that is unprecedented in their cut-throat movie star scene, and at times is mocked by jealous onlookers but envied and respected by all.

The shows success and unpredictable popularity has powered it into it’s fifth season, with plans in place for a sixth. With HBO’s knock-out lineup of “The Sopranos”, “Deadwood”, and “Six Feet Under” now all finished, the executives will be sure to pull Vince through as many Hollywood calamities as he and his “Entourage” can handle.
