I've seen this show being advertised as starting on ITV2 tonight I think, but with the UK being as slow as ever to show new shows, season 2 of this series is already available to buy on DVD in America.

Is this show funny/worth a watch? I'd much rather buy a boxset than watch an ep a week.

Zoot I have never seen the show but I have heard good things about it and was tempted myself as the wow have the first 2 seasons for £16.99 or less R2/R4. :)

Entourage: Complete First Season R2/R4

Entourage: Complete Second Season R2/R4

R1 boxsets are also pretty cheap. :)

It's been excellent so far, worth picking up the first season to see whether you like it or not. It's definitly recommended to watch the episodes one after another, they are only about 25 minutes long, so it's quite easy to sit through an entire season (especially with the first season only being 8 episodes long).

I'm half way trhough the third season and it's finished for it's mid-season break and it's not back until March next year!

Hmm I'd tend to agree, but then there are some things which it took me the entire season to fully appreciate - like the first seasons of 24, Deadwood, Rome and to a lesser extent Sopranos... Rome and Deadwood took the longest, but not because they were in some way bad, so much as HBO had already set a high bar for them to match

Still, anything "TV" made by HBO is worth buying in my opinion - have yet to come across a bad/unenjoyable product... Although I'm in two minds over Sex and the City (IMO their "least" show to date... But if that's the least good thing they come out with....

)
