HBO's former series Entourage gets a bit of a bum rap as a show by, for, and populated with douchebags. Originally created by Mark "Marky Mark" Wahlberg (douchebag), Entourage was inspired by his non-famous homeboys (douchebags) and their (douchebaggy) Hollywood adventures.
The series—which ran for eight seasons, from 2004 to 2011—revolved around A-list star Vincent Chase (Adrian Grenier), his best buddy/manager Eric (Kevin Connolly), his driver/pal "Turtle" (Jerry Ferrara), his half-brother/failed actor "Drama" (Kevin Dillon), and their Hollywood party lifestyle. So why is the douchebag label sort of a bum rap? Because at its heart, Entourage was a series about friendship and loyalty—in a town where friendship and loyalty are a goddamn joke.
