Entourage Season 5 - Blu-ray Forum

Thertel88 · 03-22-2008, 07:52 AM

Production begins on Season 5 in April 2008[2] with 12 episodes to be initially produced. However, Producer Ellin said that if HBO decides to order more at the last minute, then they are up for it.[3] Season 5 planned to satirize the writers' strike but has been scrapped as Ellin feels that most people are over the whole debacle and would prefer to deal with different material. Due to the writer's strike, Season 5 will premier in September 2008 instead of June.[3]
Among the story lines for Season 5 will be the return of Domenick Lombardozzi, the actor who plays Dom.[3] Ellin wrote him in intending for Dom to be a permanent fixture of the entourage.[3] Unfortunately, he didn’t anticipate the audience’s negative reaction to the character, which ultimately led to Lombardozzi’s early exit.[3] Ellin has a personal goal to bring Dom back, but this time he’ll have a storyline we can empathize with. Giving him terminal cancer is one idea they're considering.[3] Ellin says he has four more seasons of scandalous behavior in reserve, insisting that Entourage will probably run through year eight.[3]

Thats what Adrian wanted. Think its kind of stupid they are bringing Dom back. 4 is enough for the group, it was great occasionally seeing Sloan, but other than that Doms short stint was enough, but as long as its only 2 or 3 episodes then its fine, any more it will be terrible

This is a show I wanted to hate and ignored it for 3 seasons. Then finally decided to check out an episode. I was immediately hooked and watched all four seasons back to back. Awesome show and I look forward to season 5. Suprised Dom is coming back. What is so important about having him on the show? Is he screwing a producer? Art imitating life, immitating art?

Dom was a good character for what he was used for, should have left it at that. I felt the same about Scrubs, I severly wanted to hate it, and last year I watched 1 episode, and bought all the seasons right away

when I made that first post I hadn't read the whole thing. no idea why dom would come back, I thought he was terrible.

still, better than nothing. I like this show because it feels like at any point the most ridiculous possible occurence will always happen. it's like 24 but with money and fame instead of guns.
