Seeking a cure for "Entourage" withdrawals

This was not, by any stretch, a bad Sunday night of TV.

The Yankees played the Red Sox at Fenway.

The cheating Patriots played the Chargers in Foxboro.

Robert Duvall, Tony Bennett and even some younger folk like Jon Stewart won awards at the Emmys, which for some bizarre reason were presented at a theater "in the round."

It wasn't a bad Sunday night. But, something was missing.

I'm having "Entourage" withdrawals.

The HBO series, which centers on the life and times of heartthrob actor Vincent Chase (Adrian Grenier), his three close buddies, manager and psychotic director, is on hiatus until next year and I miss it already.

The season finale saw the gang at Cannes, where their self-produced movie sold for far less than expected. There were many memorable moments in that and earlier episodes that we'll have to resort to some trivia to get us through the long layoff.

With that in mind, here is my list of favorite season four moments for each character in the series. Use the Talkbacks to add your own:

Vincent Chase (Grenier) -- With his cash reserves depleted by "Medellin," our hero picks up a girl on the street (literally) and finds himself gambling on soccer action at Dennis Hopper's beach house. As usual, everything works out.

Eric Murphy (Kevin Connolly) -- Watching 'E' fumble through the beginning of his work relationship with Anna Farris was fun, but not as fun as watching him run across ex-girlfriend Sloan at the Mondrian pool and forget the name of his British companion. Eric's best moment, though, was fighting Billy Walsh at Barney's.

Ari Gold (Jeremy Piven) -- Any scene with Ari is a showstopper, but the episode in which he pulls out all the stops to get his son into a posh private school is an all-time classic.

Billy Walsh (Rhys Coro) -- Seeing the director in the bathroom with a bottle of booze and an unloaded gun was priceless, but Walsh's best moment this season was when he interrogated the crew on "Medellin" to find out who slept with the hot Latina actress he was obsessed with at the time.

Turtle (Jerry Ferrara) -- Two words: bunny suit.

Johnny Drama (Kevin Dillon) -- In many ways, Drama is the George Costanza of this show because his flaws and neuroses are exposed. The best moments he had came in the finale, when he fell for the lovely French lass at Cannes and in the episode when he ends up with the bunny suit and the furry.

I liked Drama trying to prove his youth/hip-ness by smoking tons of killer bud in his trailer with younger co-stars....

I jumped into Entourage a little after this past season started, and I'm glad I did. Excellent show. Funny, smart, and sometimes ending too short... I want to keep watching! My favorite moments are for sure the bunny suit, and the line Drama says at the end of the episode dealing with that suit. Arri trying to sign the soap opera star so he wont be kissing his wife was pretty funny. The interaction between Arri and Lloyd I find extremely funny, and I agree with the past post that it would be an interesting thing if that kind of interaction would fly in a normal office. Heck, we are all into our own things and stand by them, as long as that is "respected", why the hell should we all get offended when things like that are said. But... this show is hollywood, and its not real, so I doubt this would fly in real life. ha.

Ari Gold and Nicky Rubenstein the producer of the flick were at their best on the Holy Jewish Holiday and when Ari went to therapy and melted down that was the best. Lloyd and Ari...let's be politically incorrect here, don't you wish you could say that stuff in mixed company sometimes.
