Fyi, the complete series is coming out on DVD and Bluray on November 6th.

Amazon currently has them both for half the price of sites like Future shop and Best Buy. I bought the blu ray for $185 with the slightly faster shipping (next day was another 15 bucks) and all the stupid import fee deposit, while Best Buy has it listed for 325 bucks.

Just out of curiosity is HBOGO not supported in Canada? Here in the states ( or Oklahoma at least) if you have a subscription to HBO on your cable at home you get HBOGO for free. You can stream movies, all the HBO original TV series, Comedy Specials, and sports for free.

Since the thread has been bumped, anyone heard any new news of a movie or spinoffs?

It is apparently coming to Canada. At one point Astral Media (Owner of HBO Canada) claimed they would roll it out in fall 2012 but I think the whole thing has been put on hold pending the outcome of the Bell/Astral merger.

There is some concern that the CRTC will allow the merger but force Bell to sell HBO Canada so I don't think they want to spend any money on it at the moment.

massive bump here ......a week or so ago i started watching entourage again. the dialogue between the boys is fantastic; however, since teh shw was initially written, the world has changed a lot and much of the word play between the characters no longer flies.

i would have thought that adrian grenier would have really been in a lot of stuff since these days; however, he seems to have done smaller scale stuff and producing/directing

I don't care what anybody says, that show is fantastic and a better portrayal how the vast majority of guys do act or have acted with their own "Entourage"

The comradery with the boys, chilling out, having fun, trying to get laid, struggling with one's low sided and more.

The reason why that show was as big as a hit as it was as it was a fairly strong portrayal of how it was and how it probably still is. I was always amazed at the level of cameos that show was able to draw, literally the largest names in tv, movie and sports. I don't recall a current or previous show in recent times that drew that level of star power.

Love that show! Johnny Drama was always my favorite and he played the role sooooo well given his status as a brother to an A-Lister.

This show would have absolutely sucked without Ari and Drama. Vince, E and Turtle were never remotely interesting as characters, and most of the plots were pointless and uninteresting too. But Ari and Drama made it worth watching.

The greater overarching problem that kills the viability of HBOGo in Canada is that HBO already sold the streaming rights to their programming to Bell. It's all (or mostly...) on Crave.

Weird how things have changed since the post 9 years ago.

What a random bump. I literally just finished watching the entire series (for the first time) in a 4 week span or so. Will be watching the 2015 movie next.
