Entourage
Millions of dollars, hundreds of women, minimal work, and a general laissez faire attitude towards life…those are the fratty lessons that the boys of Entourage seek to teach us.
We understand that this show has some high negatives in the context of its fratitude. Yes, we are well aware that most every person on this show dresses like a gigantic douche. Yes, we are aware that Hollywood is not known as a hotbed of fratting hard. However, the positives are so high that they not only get this show on the list, but they very nearly rocketed it to #1. This is true despite the episode where Drama had to do that thing with the bunny suit…
We literally don’t know where to begin. It’s as good a start as any to map out the typical day for Vinny and the boys. Wake up whenever. Hit some golf balls off your private driving range. Head out for brunch at an expensive restaurant. On the way home, pick up Plan A’s at a traffic light just by looking at them. Return home for extended session at the pool with aforementioned Plan A’s, followed by an even more extended shacking session. Take a nap. Wake up, go to a party in Malibu, knock down copious amounts of fratwater, and then pick out another Plan A for the rest of the evening. If anyone can show us a frattier day on any TV show, we’d like to see it.
Closely guarding this lifestyle is Ari Gold (Zeta Beta Tau, Harvard University), who had a business attitude that all post-grad fratters should aspire to have. He loves money, power, and status. He hates assistants, people that don’t do what he says, and getting in trouble with the Mrs. Most of all, he has an almost orgasmic pleasure for firing people that don’t do what he wants.
Of course, Ari doesn’t leave his fratdaddy attitude at the office…
But we digress. Also undeniably fratty is the way that Vinny and the crew spend money. Four Aston Martins? Done. Marlon Brando’s house? Sign the check. Trip to Vegas for the weekend? Any time. $300,000 on one hand of blackjack????
Dealer busts, and so do you if you’re missing out on this show.

While I agree that these guys do have a fratty attitude about life, they’re still douche bags, and everyone knows 1 ah shit kills a thousand attaboys.
Wow. Zeta Beta Tau. Ari Gold. Jeremy Piven. Fratty. I see.
You’re losing stripes faster than an ass bandit in an Al Queda militia.
“Hey fellas, you know what’s fratty? Being a Harvard Jewish guy in L.A. who was in a Jewish fraternity that acts like an asshole while showing all his money. What’s more fratty is watching a fictional Harvard Jewish guy in L.A. who was in a Jewish fraternity that being douche to everyone while showing all his money.”
For Christ sake, get a hold of yourselves. Is there guest writers here or something?
Just a couple of comments:
1) As we can see from the comments of other posts, there is a wide array of genres that people think are “Fratty” when it comes to TV shows.
2) We can’t think of any TV show that doesn’t have high negatives if you look hard enough. That’s just the nature of the beast.
This show made the list because it’s a good example of young people living the good life, and, frankly, it is very entertaining while doing so. We never said it was a guide to life, and it would obviously be a douche move to emulate much of the dress and activity that is on the show. But to pop in the DVD and enjoy? No problem.
I agree with this list. No show will be 100% free of douchebaggery. I find entourage to be very entertaining while showing some displays fratty behavior.I know many fratdaddies feel the same way. Entourage is definitely an overall favorite.
i no longer enjoy anything that isn’t deemed fratty
College Gameday better be No. 1. Nothing frattier than waking up i the morning, making a whiskey drink and watching college gameday at the tailgate (or going to it if your school is actually good at football)
Not to make a hub-bub; my point was just that this show screams douchebaggery, one need not look for it. And it is possible to enjoy something fictional of course, that is not fratty. (It may due however to have our “fratguard” up so as not to let douchebaggery try to seep into our subconsciousness.)
Moreover I can understand how a fratdaddy can also be a “douchebag enthusiast” (i.e., one who enjoys watching douchebaggery because it is so foreign and contemptible as to be entertaining.)
Except for the fact that they’re at a Big10/Pac-10 school 75% of the time.
shit, entourage is just a good show. i’ll watch that anyday of the week.
yea espn is a big ten and pac ten lovefest
the office better be #1 or im done
Ole Missin out!

They had a pretty circle shirt in season 1 (guy in cafe next to turtle).

I once bet $300,000 on a hand of blackjack…. and lost… I ended up jerking off two Mexican guys so they would give me a ride back to Cali…
SigEp, Cal-Berkely c/o 2004!! Yea, Boi!!!!
Sig Ep ROCKS!!!!
where’s #1?
OleMissinOut,
Could you tell me where to get those “circle shirts” you speak of? Do you know if anyone sells them or something?
Entourage is the greatest show currently running on television hands down. If you think this show isnt “fratty” go fuck yourself. Seriously, bend over starting sucking your own schlong and give yourself a personal money shot. It comes back September 7th. There is nothing better than being hung over after a gameday, smoking gravs and watching Entourage>Flight.
sooo there is a number one right? or has doug and eric completely ditched out on this site…
try the link under what he posted
#1 is coming soon. We were on vacation for the holiday. Our duty is to frat hard first, write on FrattingHard second.
