Watched all seasons again lately, and it got me wondering if any new eps were on the way. Well here is what I got thanks to Wikipedia.



Production on Season 5 began in April 2008 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. 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 writers' strike, Season 5 will premiere on September 7, 2008 instead of June.

Among the story lines for Season 5 will be the return of Domenick Lombardozzi, the actor who plays Dom. Ellin wrote him in intending for Dom to be a permanent fixture of the entourage. Unfortunately, he didn’t anticipate the audience’s negative reaction to the character, which ultimately led to Lombardozzi’s early exit. Ellin has a personal goal to bring Dom back, but this time with a storyline viewers can empathize with. Giving him terminal cancer is one idea that was considered. It is also rumored that rapper Saigon will return to the series in Season 5. It has been confirmed by various news outlets that Rapper Bow Wow will play Eric's newest client: Charlie, a young, up-and-coming comedian trying to get a break. Ellin says he has four more seasons of material in reserve, implying that Entourage will probably run through season eight. T.I. is also expected to make a guest appearance in the fifth season.

Season Five also promises Johnny Drama a hit show, a break-up and a daytime meltdown on "The View". The scene, taped outside of Caesars Palace in Las Vegas, includes co-hosts Sherri Shepherd, Elisabeth Hasselbeck and Whoopi Goldberg.


So...looks like it's still on thank god! Here's whats rumored to be in store in a nut shell


Eric is still trying to get more clients.

Drama show is still doing great.

Dom is back....YUCK! Fucking hate that guy.

Possible more success for Turtle and Saigon or other possible rappers.

Enough ideas for 4 more season if HBO doesn't shelf the show!

Entourage used to be one of my favorite parts of summer, it's such a great show. When I heard it was pushed back to the fall I was really disappointed, but I guess now we get a Christmas/New Years episode which I think could be fun.

Well the writer's strike threw off a lot of shows.

I am disappointed in the reappearance of Dom....I really hated him.

I am excited for the return of this show for sure.

Yea I dunno why they wanted to bring him back to the show. I don't care if they give him cancer or whatever they do to try and make the audience sympathize with him. He was such a douche while on the show I don't think there's really much of a chance of recovery to win the audience over to liking him.

Jamie-Lynn Sigler, Meadow from The Sopranos, is signed on for a few episodes. She's going to play herself and the love interest of one of the guys.

God, I thought Dom was a terrible character. He ruined the synergy between the guys.

I hate Dom. I'm happy to hear it's starting September as they originally pushed it back to November after the writers strike. Still lame that we don't get it over the summer as it has been a highlight of every summer for the past couple of years. It really hurts a show to have so much time inbetween seasons IMO, I hope it doesn't affect Entourage to much as I would hate to see it canceled.
