Season 5 of Entourage is Coming our Way September 2008!
"We're not signed for it, but we want to do it," declares Kevin Connolly, who co-stars in the show based on actor/exec producer Mark Wahlberg's showbiz experiences with Adrian Grenier, Kevin Dillon and Jerry Ferrara. "I'll tell you. I swear to God if you stick that paper in front of me, I will sign on the dotted line for 50 seasons! Anything to make it not go away. I think anybody that wouldn't would have to have their head examined. The worst thing about this show is that someday it will come to an end. It's going to be like the worst day of my life."
Connolly says the troupe -- which is halfway through shooting the fifth season of the show that returns in September -- "just shot an episode in The Joshua Tree Monument in the desert. Our first episode was in Hawaii, and we're going to do a New York episode, and that's just three out of 12. So just for the locations alone … And one of the other benefits of being on an HBO show is the time commitment is really small. We shoot four months out of the year ... It's so ideal." Not to mention the plethora of hot babes encountered by this entourage weekly. Rough job!
He adds, "Ultimately we'd like to do eight years of the show. That would be where everybody would feel like 'We did it,' you know, because we're not like a network. Eight years for us is just about 100 episodes" -- enough needed for syndication -- "and that's five years on a regular network."

The Cast of Entourage is looking to spent another 3 years together!
Kevin Connolly would spent the next 50 Years on Entourage signing guest stars like Bow Wow!
"Cast members like Rex Lee are hearing the HBO comedy will head back into production in March. Lee (who plays Hollywood assistant extraordinaire Lloyd) admits "I'd love to get back to work".
This is in line with the New York Times and other publications that have stated "Entourage" will now be back in Fall 2008 instead of the original pre-strike June 2008.
Some sources have been less commital and stated that the show will return late 2008/early 2009.
Originally, the show was to begin filming around now, so it does not seem too far off the original back to set date.
Considering Doug Ellin and his team has 3-4 pre-strike scripts ready to go, it doesn't seem too hopeful to think they will make a September 2008 return date.
Lets all hope this is true.
