You know I need you desperately...
Yesterday, I finally got around to watching the season finale of Entourage. Brilliant! Absolutely nothing short of spectacular TV viewing. Heck, the entire season has resulted in this show moving to the top of the pack in my list of favorite shows. If I had actually tuned in during season 2, I'm sure it would've taken numerous prizes in the Primetime TV Kappy Awards. Alas I was a late bloomer with Entourage and didn't finish watching the first season on DVD until the second season was half over. And we didn't have TiVo back then.
This morning, however, I read some horrific news regarding the show. This courtesy of IMDb. And I pray it's all lies.
Federline to Guest Star on 'Entourage'
Britney Spears' husband Kevin Federline has scored another acting role on a hit TV series and will guest star on Entourage. Federline has already shot a guest appearance on CSI: Crime Scene Investigation that will air in October. Now the aspiring rapper has scored another plum part and will appear in three episodes of Entourage -- playing himself.
My only hope of redemption regarding this news is that Federline will be a corpse in CSI. This I can forgive.
Me [at Federline in C.S.I.]: Ha! So much for leaving behind a good-looking corpse. What would you like on your tombstone!
Perhaps he will be used by Ari (Jeremy Piven) as an example of what Vinnie (Adrian Grenier) might become if he doesn't get his career under control in Entourage. Or they'll show him being fired or otherwise rejected by Ari because he's a no-talent assclown who has no hope of making it in Hollywood. This would make me laugh.
Me [at Federline in Entourage]: Yeah Ari! You show that no-talent assclown who the boss is! Suck it, Fed!
Alas, I fear it will be nothing of the sort and that K-Fed will actually have a significant role. I fear that Federline will wind up as Turtle's (Jerry Ferrara) next rap star client. Sad. Truly.
Oh dear God, say it ain't so!!
uggghhhhhhh!

You just ruined me day. I LOVED the season finale as well but K-Fed on the show? Nostrils flared and ears heating up - I hate him.

Dragon, I second that.
Elaine, sorry to have ruined your day. But I felt just as crappy about it.

This guy really needs to give it up. I'm still wondering if he can actually dance, I've never seen him do it, though that's supposed to be where his "talent" lies.

If his dancing is nearly as "good" as his rapping, he should be shot immediately.

I have been meaning to check out Entourage. Now I'm not sure. But CSI? I have watched that from the very first episode. Please let KFed be a corpse. If not, I may be tempted to do damage to my TV.

Jacquie, don't you watch any TV? Get a TiVo. Fed gives me the shivers too.
Dagny, you should definitely still give it a go. Since it's now between seasons, you can always rent the K-Fed-free seasons 1 and 2. Allow those to suck you in. Then you may watch it despite this miscasting. I'll still watch.
