Not feeling the whole Ashley thing either. She looks and sounds too young. It would be good if they kept her on the show for a little while as a psycho who stalks Eric but not as a regular.

Ok I give Drive a 7.
I really liked Amongst Friends and give it a 9.
But I gotta give One Car a 3. Agree with other posters that it was a bland episode. Just couldn't get into it and thought the Turtle theme was way too contrived.
Didn't like Ashley until I saw her lounging on the couch in just a t-shirt. Still looks young though!
Still love the show though.

I really hope we see more Dana Gordon At some point this season. I like the whole JLS / Turtle thing, I'd like to see that continue. 86 Ashley! She sounds and acts like she is 15, Sloane is way hotter! I hope E's career takes off. I kind of like he and Ari being friends a little, but dont over do it, keep those two at arms length. Lloyd adds a lot of color to the show, he is funny.
Overall, this season has a different feel to it> The verdict is still out for me, not sure how much I love it yet. Good news though, I read just today that it has been picked up for another season

Hey man, I think it's a mistake. Or, rather they just wanted to keep it there.

Actually on the episode where they are shooting at Terrence's. Turtle says "Whose family is all of Sicilian ancestry". So...

If you want it to go away so bad then why bring it up. It was just between two people until you entered and brought it up..............Why wont people that post on boards ever learn that if they want a discussion to die then they need to not reply to it...............

Yes!! her behaviour was Yenta like........so I agree that she was acting like a Yenta........ I guess when I read the article it didnt come off like that , and seemed more like your were referring to her as an overbearing Jewish mother which is very close......

Yep, no doubt about using the word "yenta," I agree with you there. I was referring only to it as a state of mind, that type of gossiper. Turtle's mom would never call herself that (though in Queens, she probably knows what it is!)

Just because theyre not going to film turtle taking notes in class doesnt mean its a good idea. This show is only twenty minutes, they shouldnt waste a second on turtle signing up for classes, getting his books, first day of school, etc. That has nothing to do with the original premise of the show.
And obviously ALL men arent the same. No group of people is entirely the same, but there are majorities, and the majority of men want hot cars, hot houses, hot parties and hot women. Thats what catapulted this show, theyre trying too hard.

No...........Im 100% Italian, and we dont ever refer to ourselves or other Italians as Yenta's Yenta's are Jewish, now if she were an Italian Jew then she could be a Yenta, but if she were a traditional Italian Catholic then Yenta wouldn't apply..........JMO
We just say overbearing Italian mother and that says it all............
We really have no way of knowing what nationality Turtle is but with the name Sal and his Mortadella reference early on IM guessing Italian......

Thanks, AJ. The true entourage fans know what were talking about. Remember that feeling when a new episode used to air? I was giddy with anticipation, then I spent 20+ mins laughing loudly with my friends and enviously watching the lifestyle of the characters. I would almost cheer when every epidose ended, a cool story twist with a great hip-hop track bumping in the background as the credits begin.
Now I still have anticipation when an episode is about to begin, maybe its the hope that the show will return to the greatness of the past. Then I sit for 20+ minutes, laugh a few times. Now the credits roll while a slow dramatic track is playing in the background. And I have one thought everytime: 'That's it?!' Man I miss the real show.
