not big arcs, but the one that stuck out for me the most E.

E was more of a growing away from the group, and in to his own. first with moving out, then with leaving his little shop and taking the new job, and finally not dicking around with sloan anymore.

"as far as I can remember, there was no season-long story arc at all. Unless you could the bullshit shenanigans between E and Turtle and their girlfriends, or Drama trying to get back into acting. Or maybe Lloyd's drama, or the agency buyout (which was only a couple episodes, i think). But really, there was no big storyline that held the season together was there?"

Honestly...it sounds like you do remember a lot about what happened this season.

However, I think the big difference this season was that there was nothing big with Vince. Entourage started out with Vince trying to be a big star. Then it was his relationship with Mandy Moore. Then it was him being a huge mega-star but trying to be picky about his roles...then him hitting rock bottom. Then him re-gaining his stardom. Then around all of that were the other characters and their smaller situations (E and Sloan, Ari opening his own agency, Drama just trying to get a job, etc.).

This season was more about the other characters having big situations (Turle and Jamie, Drama and his acting, E and Ashley/Sloane, Ari and Lloyd/taking over agency) and the only thing going on with Vince was a stalker and him just banging a bunch of other hot chicks.

I don't really have a problem with the way this season went. There were some weak episodes, but there were some good ones too. I have no problem with a shit ton or Ari rants, seeing more of Sloan, and seeing Drama go off on that dude who was trying to bang Jamie. I'm sure they'll do some big stuff with Vince next season.

yeah, i guess that's pretty much true. There was no season-long "will he or won't he get this role!" or whatever, which I guess was never too exciting to begin with.
If I had known, though, that E and his girlfriend troubles were supposed to be "important" to the show, then maybe I would have paid more attention to them?

I really enjoyed this season b/c it got away from all the Vince drama that was Season 5. I kinda thought it was funny he said he was making probably $20 Million this year to Matt Damon but he was poor as shit last year.
