I know a lot of people who either never really watched this show or just didn't really fuck with it too much. One thing I really enjoy about movies and TV are the interesting cameos that you get to see here and there. In this show, the cameos never quit. And not only are so many famous people on this show, but they all play themselves. No extra roles, just a slight fictional (or maybe not so fictional) version of themselves. Including people like, Eminem, Pauly Shore, Ralph Maccio, Saigon, Mark Wahlberg, Jessica Alba, Sarah Silverman, Lisa Ann, Sasha Grey, Scarlett Johanson and so many more. Like, much more than I can fit here without giving you too much to read. It's always fun to see who's going to pop up next.
My favorite character is Ari Gold, Vince's manager. His anger problem is out of control. I mean, the things he says are like, wow dude. How are you able to work with people? Shit is maaaaad funny. Sometimes I used to watch this show just to hear what insult Ari might yell out next. He's hysterical. I definitely give this show a 5/5. I loved watching it and I was definitely excited to see the movie when it hit theaters. Give it a watch!
