So I made my first wikipedia edit today. I added some minor comments to the episodes section of Entourage, the TV series, regarding Jeremy Piven's status past season 3:
"There has also been some speculation that Jeremy Piven and HBO have had difficulty coming to terms on a contract extension, leaving the actor unsigned past Season 3. Additionally, rumors have swirled among fans that Piven's character, Ari Gold, is slowly being phased out of the show. These rumors seem to be supported by the show's most recent episode and the direction the show seems to be heading."
I figured this certainly added some value to the article in terms of giving insight into speculation on upcoming seasons from the fans' perspective. Jeremy Piven's character, Ari, happens to be extremely vital to the show, and not so ironically, my favorite character. Piven is tremendous and his character, though a vulgar, egocentric maniac, is basically my role model (weird, I know). More importantly, Ari is a fan favorite and the mere thought of him not being in upcoming seasons has contributed to my gross lack of sleep, and I'm sure many others too. I feel my update touches upon a very important issue, that if true, could spell the end of Entourage as we, the fans, know it. Though the comments I added are mere rumors, this fan gossip is still very important to understanding the show from a broader perspective.
later.

I have to admit that as I was skimming through your blog in past weeks, I must have decided that this post was a bit too long for me to read from start to finish. You are absolutely right when you say that Ari is vital to the show's success, I can't imagine that I'd enjoy the show even half as much if he wasn't on it anymore. This post just ruined my day a little bit.
