Maybe You Can Have It All

"Maybe you can have it all," is the series slogan. This slogan perfectly describes the theme of the show. Vince is a poor boy from Queens with a dream to make it in Hollywood. Everyone loves this kind of story in which the protagonist rises from nothing and makes a life for himself. It is similar to the fantasy of winning the lottery.

They say that Americans love to see celebrities fail. Well I say that we love to see a success story, but hollywood tragically influences people to make poor decisions. Entourage is refreshing because Vince is an actor that keeps focused and handles his fame well. Vince is a likable character because he is grounded. He remembers where he came from and he has the same childhood friends. His friends are his family and he is loyal to each of them. In the last episode of season six, he even starts getting involved with charities.

Because Vince is the star of the show and he is a good guy, viewers cheer on his success. In a society that is obsessed with fame, shows like entourage will always thrive. People like to live vicariously through Vince and they like to believe that this could happen to them. And why shouldn't they?
