Hold Up, We're Getting A New 'Entourage' Show But This Time It's All Based Around Thierry Henry's Life

Whoa, whoa, whoa. You can't just sell this as Entourage-style show without any promos. I need to hear the music for the intro. I need to know what friends Theirry has. What sort of models will be in every episode with some sort of gratuitous nudity? Back to the intro song, it's not the most iconic by any means. But, for me, it's the intro I think of first when I hear the HBO sound: 

But I do like the move to doing sports Entourage. We got the movie side already with Vinnie Chase, let's get the sports side now. Who cares if it'll be the same ups and downs with ultimately the main character pulling through? Maybe this time Doug Ellin will be able to kill off his main character: 

Henry actually makes a ton of sense as the guy to follow too. He's played for 3 of the biggest clubs in the world. He married a model for a few years. He's good friends with Tony Parker - I just feel like there's a storyline there. I will say casting here is going to be important. You don't need the big names, but you gotta have the perfect fit. If there's a Turtle, they gotta look like Turtle. Jerry Ferrara was perfect for that. E looked exactly like an E. Gotta nail those, but let's be honest I'm watching this. No doubt about it. Give me all the mindless TV.
