This episode, while not as bad as the 1st Dom episode, was one of the lowlights of S3. Turtle, Ari and Lloyd carried the episode. Is it just me or are they turning Ari into Jerry Maguire?

I was thinking about the first episodes of each season and all of them are pretty weak.

 

The pilot was kind of blah, "The Boys Are Back in Town" wasn't that strong and "AquaMom" was pretty boring. And this season's premiere wasn't all that hot either. But when the third episode comes, that is when things start picking up.

No. It was 20 minutes tops.

 

Amanda in her see through underwear was nice. I bet that's probably all we're gonna get out of her, but whatever.

 

Ari crying over Vince, hijacking his therapist, and then getting his mean streak back was nice. That whole scene w/ the therapist and his wife towards the beginning was gold.

 

Looking forward to next week but I couldn't believe how short this episode was.

nah, a show like this doesn't have engaging enough storylines to keep going for an hour at a time. There's only 5 main characters and a small handful of supporting characters. It's not like the Wire or Oz or Rome or something that has multiple main characters that need at least an hour to develop their stories. Entourage is basically 4 guys having the time of their lives out in California with a manic agent running around stressed out.

Mmmmm. That's good Gugino cleavage. Like Mik mentioned, the shit with Ari and his shrink was very well done. I'm not sure if I liked the ending, only because it's really, really unlikely that Vince and Amanda just fuck and go back to have a professional relationship. Maybe Ari finds out about it and tries to blackmail Amanda into cutting Vince loose?

How can Drama not know who Liddel is? We've seen them watching UFC a few times over the years. I know Drama is in his own world but still. Aside from that, good stuff with Liddell. Eric continues to drag these shows down while Ari gets more awesome.

"How can Drama not know who Liddel is?"

 

A very small percentage of people watch UFC.

 

Like I said, we've seen the gang watching UFC before. Drama lives in his own world, so that explains it. The other guys knew who Liddell was. I loved that it was a good touch showing how oblivious Drama is when he's not depressed.

I loved this episode.

 

The Liddell/Drama stuff was unreal. Hilarious and awesome. I saw the ending coming but still very cool.

 

The pool scene w/ Artie Lang, Carley Bobby, Ari and his wife was dynamite.

 

The only thing that sucked was E's storyline but this is all leading to Amanda's imminent firing so whatever. I just hope they don't go the Mandy Moore route again...

That Drama plotline in this episode was some of the most predictible stuff I've seen in a sitcom in a while. Completely unfunny. It looks like the main Ari/Vince/Amanda plot will pick up next week though.

I thought Ari could've been a bit more raunchy to Arti's wife. That wasn't "frat boy talk". We don't do that shit to each other's girlfriends. It was lame. But if they were going that route, at least go the full route, instead of "DAMN, WHAT A BODY". That blowoff sucked. As did the obvious ending to the funny Lidell/Drama sequence. During the initial scenes I was like "THIS IS GONNA BE GREAT" and at the end, I was like "That's...It?"

 

Edit: I just watched it again with more people and liked it better, but everyone saw the ending a mile away.

This could have been one of my favorite episodes if the Ari storyline wasn't so boring. Which is a shame because I love Artie Lange.

 

And I am hating E more and more.

I can't be the only one thinking that the ending shot was going to be E talking to Vince about Amanda and then saying "I just fired her" or something to that effect. Either way, it's clear that the direction they're going in is that Vince's relationship with Amanda starts to have a negative impact on his work. I'll go one further and say that E goes to Ari for advice and that's the beginning of the end for Vinny and Amanda.

Another factor is that they get comp'd alot of things as well. The party they threw was sponsered, so they didn't spend much. Obviously they spend a ton because they know Vince will make the money.

 

Five Towns. Is this a hit for Drama or do we see a one week bust and Drama's back in the dumps?

Posted

It will do well. Drama needs a break and I think something might happen where Drama ends up supporting the crew more than Vince. I am guessing Drama is making about 30,000 an episode and if the series does well, he might get a movie.

Great episode.

 

Vince going to fire Amanda only to find out that she had nothing to do with it and that it got fucked up by Josh Rubenstein was pretty awesome. I wonder if Vince just goes back to Ari or what now.

 

And is Amanda done with the show?

 

But all that stuff with Ari and temple was gold.
