I love Entourage, but my favorite part of the show is whenever Ari Gold is on.

He is freaking hilarious. This got me to thinking, I think I would like a show about Ari Gold's Agency detailing his interaction with various other celeb types.

This opens the floor to a whole shitload of possibilities and various characters and of course, Ari Gold would be the center of the show.

So, here is my question? Do you think a show about Ari Gold would be a good idea?

Horrible idea.

He works great because he works within the context of the great show.

He's on for a few minutes then gone. And we can't wait for him to return.

It's very rare that a great character in an ensemble show can then go on to sustain a show by himself.

Frasier is one of the rare exceptions.

And I may be completely wrong.

"ARI" might be awesome

It all comes down to the writing people!

Thank you.

I love Ari too, but I don't know if I could take him for a whole show. He's so intense.

It'd like too much ice cream cake, or too much tequila.

Or too much of both all at once.
