The fourth season of Entourage follows Vincent Chase's quest for legitimacy (and Oscar) through his dream project, the Pablo Escobar biopic Medellin, whose development deal was the focus of season three. As expected, the production is riddled with troubles: Vincent (Adrian Grenier) and Eric (Kevin Connolly) clash over the ability of the film's director, Billy Walsh (Rhys Coiro), to handle the grand scale of a film. Eric even flies in Oscar-winning screenwriter Stephen Gaghan (playing himself) to the shoot in Colombia at Billy's request in order to rescue the script, only to send him home when Billy comes up with the ending himself. ("I've never had anyone pay me not to work before," says Gaghan in a hilarious cameo. "It was nice.") But as the pet project puts strains on their friendship, Eric finally takes a step off of Vince's coattails to become a manager in his own right; his first step is snagging actress Anna Faris (as herself) as a client (in true Hollywood form, after she hits him with her car). As buzz on Medellin ebbs and flows, Eric and Vince's agent, Ari Gold (Emmy winner Jeremy Piven) wheel and deal to lock in distribution and spin the behind-the-scenes drama to their advantage. Key to the negotiations is a swaggering, hotheaded studio magnate named Harvey Weinhald--the caricature is obvious--who threatens the life of any agent who double-crosses him. And that's right where our boys land, but is it a gamble that will pay off? The fourth season, as always, is rife with celebrity cameos (Dennis Hopper, the late Sydney Pollack, Kanye West), but the Medellin plot pushes out any chance for other Entourage cast members to get a storyline (Johnny Drama gets a condo! Buys a hat!), which ultimately becomes a detriment considering that Medellin, as the big finale at Cannes attests, may not have been worth all the hype. Bonus features include commentary by the cast and creators, a panel discussion, and the Medellin trailer, which with its slo-mo, self-important music and bad makeup, is a gem. --Ellen A. Kim

 Trying to make a transition, some bumps but successful May 14, 2009
Burgmicester (Pittsburgh)
After 3 stunning seasons of Entourage, the writers and producers seem to be trying to make a transition for the show and the characters. Episode 1 is the making of Medellin and the show uses a technique where the characters are talking to the cameras as a "ghost" reporter takes their points of view. It is very well done and the Season 4 is off and running.
As the season progressed, I found myself enjoying the shows, and here's the "but": They were going over much of the same territory. Yes, the guys have made some moves and changes, but there wasn't anything new developing. Ari is still stealing his scenes, and Lloyd is now coming around. There are some new character traits that are beginning to show - especially with Ari, but not enough to give the show its edge back.
That is, however, until episode "Snow Job" begins. Everything changes. The writers have made a successful transition to an entirely new level. The season's finale, "The Cannes Kids" blows the doors off. The writing is superb, the filming is getting better and better. This is the best 30 minute show on television. Can't wait to begin Season 5.

i love this show...if you havent watched this season you will love it i promise...best show on tv
 Enjoyable but does get kind of repetitive March 2, 2009
T (NC)
I enjoyed this season just as much as previous ones, however I do feel the series is running out of steam. Stories get kind of repetitive, there is no real character growth. Ari, Lloyd and Bill Walsh carried this season for me. Unlike many reviewers, I liked the first episode very much.
I also don't look for any kind of moral message in this show. I am a woman and it is obvious that women in this show are mainly portrayed as sexual objects. However, it seems to be a reality in the world of money and fame. Instead I like getting an insight in the world of filmmaking. I never thought it was so complex...
On a negative note, what I don't like about this show is a huge number of dropped story lines. It wasn't that noticeable in previous seasons, but this time it stood out for me.
Great Show! February 11, 2009

This is a great show...fun to watch. It's also an interesting insight into Hollywood. I also don't relate to these types of guys at all, but I still really enjoy watching it.
