I’ll be the first to admit that I never saw myself as being much of an Entourage fan, but after a bit of talking with some people at work, I finally decided to give the show a shot a few months ago and was I ever impressed. Being in Canada and not having HBO as part of my TV plan, I was limited to watching reruns of the show compliments of a local TV station, that is of course, until I found alternative methods of getting my hands on the first two seasons and part 1 of the third season.
Once I finally had the ability to enjoy the show from the very beginning, I was hooked. It was only a matter of days before I had wiped through the entire first, second, and third seasons of HBO’s Entourage. My experience with coming to the final episode of the third season was much like that of when NBC’s Heroes went on hiatus. I had gotten so into the show that it really sucked not being able to have that fresh episode every week, luckily that has all come to an end.
On April 8th the show made it’s triumphant return to HBO to close out its third season and things are as good as ever. Naturally, since I still don’t have the ability to watch Entourage on HBO, I’ve found other ways of getting my paws on the episodes to stay my cravings.
Apparently I’m not the only one that missed the show while it was on hiatus. According to the TV gods at Variety, Entourage returned to HBO to some of its highest ratings ever, attracting some 3.77 million viewers, a whopping 40% more than the shows season two debut.
