Dessert first, dinner tomorrow

So the Sopranos was bone-chillingly brutal last night, but I want a night to ponder some things, because constitutional law (writing and all) is a tough nugget to crack.

Fortunately, Entourage came on afterwards and was the perfect after-dinner mint to the dark/heavy Sopranos. The plot line continues to focus on Medellin, and this time they brought in Adam Goldberg, playing a Jewish trust fund kid, and everyone's favorite psychotic director, Billy Walsh.

The entire "convince Walsh to do the movie" scene was fantastic. From Wally Balls (future nickname?) to the "midget porn" extras walking around to Walsh's vision for the future of porn, it was absolutely hilarious. The Entourage writers/directors are so good at making the absurd seem normal for Vinny Chase and co., and this episode was no exception.

Not nearly enough Ari this time around, although the previews for next episode is a good omen. I kind of wish something good would happen to them this season...I'm finding it increasingly hard to believe that anyone as famous as the fictional Vince could ever be so stupid with his money. That's what he has Jewish agents and accountants for...

Did anyone watch the Adrian Grenier documentary about searching for his father? And does anyone out there actually care who his father is? Could they have picked any less of an interesting HBO star to go search for his father? I'd be surprised if Adrian is any deeper than Vince...or is that just crude type casting.

Check this space for Sopranos tomorrow.
