Entourage: Fore! - Review

It had to happen sooner or later right? The bubble has burst with this subpar episode following last weeks train wreck. It just goes to show two things: don't break with a tried and true formula and never, ever give the best lines to guest stars.

After a strong start to it's sixth season, Entourage has stumbled a bit nearing the midway point. Tonight's episode called Fore! left nearly all the character development it had earned in the dust. And what's with Johnny Drama? He's going south in a hurry. His insecurities were hilarious when he got zero respect and couldn't get a job but now he's just plain mean. Especially after last weeks fiasco when he had the nerve to ask Turtle to get Jamie-Lynn to agree to be his love interest on Five Towns. That was just plain wrong on so many levels and was completely out of character for such a loyalist like Drama.

As quickly as I got on board with and really liked the character growth, I'm just not happy with the last two episodes. Creator Doug Ellin is veering off into a very weird direction that puts the show in danger of alienating the rest of the core fan base. But the episode wasn't all bad as it definitely had it's moments. As an homage I will also break with my review formula. Why not?
