Seth Rogen hates Entourage
After his unlikely romance with Katherine Heigl in Knocked Up was the subject of intense skewering on Sunday's episode of Entourage, Seth Rogen let E!'s Daily 10 know he thinks the show's creater Doug Ellin is a moron:
"Yeah, those guys are assholes. I actually ran into Matt ... Kevin Dillon in a Starbucks. And he's like 'You know, I've got to kind of apologize because apparently the guy who created our show doesn't like you so much.' And I said 'Well, I have reason to believe because I think [showrunner] Doug Ellin is a moron from all I can understand so it makes sense he doesn't like me.' And I've kind of said some disparaging things about the show. Although in our defense, [producer] Mark Wahlberg called us misogynistic in an interview, so I think they kind of started that.
It's on. Luckily I never have and never plan on watching Entourage."
I kind of expected a snappier comeback from Seth Rogen besides "Yeah, well, I'm never watching their show." Unless he knows something about premium cable ratings that I don't. Is there a highly profitable Seth Rogen demographic I'm unaware of?

Entourage is the shit!

Didn't they beat Seth Rogan up in an episode of Entourage? Oh wait, what's that? That was Seth Green? Harumph, I always get my C-list actors confused.
4. Quinn - July 21, 2009 5:04 PM
I watched 1/2 an episode of Entourage and it sucks ass. Not defending Rogan though, but Entourage is way overrated.
5. Phil - July 21, 2009 5:07 PM
Isn't that the show about a bunch of philandering Hollywood douchebags? Why do people like that?
6. The Jerk - July 21, 2009 5:10 PM
@4..I'm going to agree with Quinn here..its like one of those types of shows where its gets completely hyped way more than it should be and the episodes are so fucking repetitive it makes me wonder how many seasons does it really take to understand what a bunch of worthless guys do to make some change or get laid like that fat fuck stoner 'turtle' who fails practically every episode. There are way better shows than this bullshit, like WONDERSHOWZEN... ;D

Thou shalt not bash The Rogen!!
8. Deacon Jones - July 21, 2009 5:22 PM
Fuck Rogen.
HBO is the only network that has the balls to show how a bunch of guys from the east coast would act if they hit it big - buy things you can't afford, smoke pot everyday, play video games, drive beautiful cars, and bang seriously hot tail.
Piven should be given the Medal of Honor for his performance on that show, he's unreal.
9. Andrew - July 21, 2009 5:22 PM
Seth Rogen's comment made no sense. He just made himself sound stupid. Now, I usually like him -- and also Entourage -- but this is just dumb. They made a joke. He's never made a joke at somebody else's expense in one of his movies? Get the fuck over it, Rogen.
P.S.: I always thought I would hate Entourage from the bits and pieces I occasionally caught -- and then my girlfriend made me watch it. Now I really like it. It's a funny show.

I've been watching Entourage for a while now and it's really starting to blow. It's the same thing every episode.
Drama makes boorish comments each episode...
Turtle is just aggravating-tries way too hard to be hip.
Vince is sooo carefree and doesn't worry about anything
Ari is overly dramatic and just insults everyone
E is boring
Yawn! Guess that's what happens when your creative force is Marky Mark.

Entourage is garbage. I've seen like two episodes and it was just awful. Weeds takes a giant s*** all over that crap a** show. The funniest part is that the cast members are a bunch of cheap jerks in real life. Piven was banned from a restaurant for leaving a a season 1 of entourage as a tip. He was sitting with a table of 12. What a cheap f***. Not surprising seeing as the show is a piece of s***.
13. Mac - July 21, 2009 5:35 PM
Here is the artcile on Piven tipping season one of entourage. It's actually from this site: http://thesuperficial.com/2007/03/jeremy_piven_banned_from_nobu.php

And I hate Seth Rogen.

You have just proven that the show Entourage sucks. You know a show sucks when your girlfriend makes you watch it.
16. havoc - July 21, 2009 5:40 PM
So what's the deal?
Is this guy fat or skinny? Everytime I see him he's one or the other....

17. Guy - July 21, 2009 5:42 PM
Seth Rogen is a hell of a lot more sucessful and famous than those no-names (pre-Entourage), & I'm sure they will go straight back to being no-names once their 20 minute show runs out of steam.
18. Vince - July 21, 2009 5:47 PM
Seth who?
19. Harold - July 21, 2009 5:51 PM
Let's see here...
Seth Rogan got famous for smoking pot and being a regular dude in pretty much every movie he's ever in.
Entourage guys got famous for smoking pot and being regular guys in pretty much every episode of Entourage.
They've been around for almost the same exact amount of time.
So, essentially they are one and the same. All of Seth Rogan's movies are the exact same thing, as is every episode of Entourage. I still find both entertaining.
Really they just need to give SR a part on Entourage, and call it a fucking day.
20. jimmy conway - July 21, 2009 6:03 PM
Who is that hairy douchebag?
21. No - July 21, 2009 6:04 PM
That is untrue about all of Rogen's movies being the same and Entourage being around just as long.
Nobody smokes pot in Super Bad. Nobody smokes pot in Knocked Up. Freaks&Geeks and 40 Year Old Virgin are the only shows and movies I recall him smoking pot. Also, Freaks and Geeks first episode was in 1999 which he was a part of. Entourages first episode was in 2004.
Seth Rogen wins.
22. Ruth - July 21, 2009 6:08 PM
Since when has anyone cared what this douche thinks? Entourage is one of the best shows out. Cast is awesome. Music is great. Cars are amazing. Premise is any guys dream. Guess this {} is upset he didn't think of it. HOpe they flame him every show now.
23. Venom - July 21, 2009 6:08 PM
I really wish Seth Rogaine, Jonah "Spike your Drink" Hill and Judd Apatow be banned from Hollywood or die.
Either one is fine with me, I am not picky.
They are the Soulja Boy of movies.

So it's as interesting as Oprah? I agree.

Seth Rogan could corner the stoner housewife demographic no problem.

Well he is jewish.
27. Loren - July 21, 2009 6:17 PM
All things aside, I have to agree with the folks who said Pivin is an amazing actor. Without him on the show, it would be MUCH less entertaining.
28. Mango - July 21, 2009 6:23 PM
27... You agree with one person? One person who sounds like a complete jerk off.
Oh and 23... wishing death on someone. Stay classy. Better watch out for the old karma bug. After wishing death on Seth Rogen, you'll probably end up with a dead family member.
29. Rod-Man - July 21, 2009 6:29 PM
I love Entourage and I'm alright with Seth Rogen. Calling him fat is one thing but calling him ugly is another; that's kinda of messed up. I was laughing my ass off just the same but I was thinking that Rogen might have a response and so he did.
30. spaceyQQQ - July 21, 2009 6:31 PM
Rogen's a douchebag & looks like Shrek.
31. Charlie Caligula - July 21, 2009 6:42 PM
Entourage is twice as misogynistic as anything Apatow shits out.
32. A.V. Phibes - July 21, 2009 6:43 PM
I have never watched entourage, but I would bang the hell out of Seth Rogen any day of the week.
33. jr - July 21, 2009 6:43 PM
Do none of you get this? Obviously, Rogen doesn't either. Turtle was the one calling Rogen out for being ugly and not understanding how Heigel could get with him in Knocked Up. But Turtle is dating Jamie-Lynn Sigler (in real life and on the show). And the next few episodes of Entourage involve Turtle getting slammed in the press for not being good looking enough to date Meadow Soprano. I think it's hilarious how Turtle is going to get his shit handed to him for making fun of Rogen because he is living the same situation in the show.
I don't usually give Entourage writers a lot of credit, but this is a good set up and a funny story line. Too bad Rogen can't understand art imitating life imitating art.
34. tony - July 21, 2009 6:44 PM
Who's that fatfuck ugly piece of shit and what the hell is Entourage? Is it something like The Hills except for guys?
35. http://www.popduds.com/ - July 21, 2009 6:46 PM
Is this some kind of epic douche-off? Seth Rogan vs. Entourage is about as lame as it gets. Sorry if I just insulted your favorite actor and/or tv show, but you're a boring person and it needed to be said to your face for once.
36. Albin Bainbridge - July 21, 2009 6:48 PM
I'm conflicted. On one hand "Entourage" is a boring and repetitive show, on the other hand Rogen is a boring and repetitive actor who owes his career to that hack Judd Apatow. They both suck equally hard, so which side do I take?
@ 12
You had me until you said "Weeds" was good. That show is nothing but a bunch of 2-dimensional cardboard cutouts making hackneyed sex, pot, and race jokes. So now that I think about it it's pretty much on the same level with Rogen and "Entourage".
37. Booya! - July 21, 2009 6:50 PM

Seriously, some of you actually admire, nay look up to the sh$t that's on cable....my gawd, Rogan or any of them aren't anything to idolize...but defending the tripe that Entourage embodies?
You have no clue what the author of this site really thinks, do you? Carry on Lemmings.

Entourage is like Sex in the City for dumb white guys
46. jcj7161 - July 21, 2009 8:46 PM
Entourage and Rogan are both over rated....so everyone on this post can suck arse
47. uh - July 21, 2009 8:52 PM
Entourage has gotten worse and worse. Ari is overdone, the whole Lloyd thing is retarded and boring, and about 95% of the show is now devoted to their relationships. I don't watch teen soap operas for a reason.
Weeds also has started sucking more and more.
And Seth Rogen isn't "fascinatingly ugly". He's not perfect, but women tend to be less superficial, so his sense of humor and nice-guy appeal make up for it.
48. DCMikeRotch - July 21, 2009 9:17 PM
Entourage is opium for douchebags and Seth Rogen is opium for hipster tools.
But for defending anything remotely related to Katherine Heigel and/or a formulaic romantic comedy, Seth Rogen is a fag.
Entourage wins.
49. Amrcanpoet - July 21, 2009 9:33 PM
#21 - No pot in Knocked Up? WTF? Did you even see the movie? What about the scene where he runs out of the house to save his bong during the earthquake? Yeah, I'm sure it was for tobacco.
50. Harold - July 21, 2009 9:37 PM
@21 Not to mention Pineapple Express, which you conveniently forgot, which is ALL ABOUT POT!
51. amizzle - July 22, 2009 12:23 AM
entrourage is not every guys's dream.Who the fuck wants to be 30+ and still living with your d-bag friends? its a nice idea but in practice it would suck. Also the show is a bunch of c-list actors who would be lucky to get a came in a Rogan movie pretending...PRETENDING to be A list cocks. it's a big fucking circle jerk and anyone whoe likes it also secretly likes to gargle cock

Seth is awesome the guy has more talent than them Entourage guys. I will take Seth any day dam I wanna destroy that guy he's soo dam HOT! His laughter makes me so hot for him and dam I wanna hear his voice moan my name when I am on top of him.
54. Jiggaman - July 22, 2009 1:00 AM
You can't possibly criticize entourage without actually seeing the show. If doug ellen is taking out his personal angst through his tv show then that's retarded. Entourage is a great show, overhyped but not overrated. Seth rogen could be classified as the same I belive. Who expected a smarter answer from rogen anyways?
Funny people is probably going to be the worst piece of crap ever, bomb rogens career, bomb his next get high and sell tickets movie until he does something where he can showcase his talent through a bit of variety.
If you notice neither doug ellen or rogen have any sort of class whatsoever.
I think kevin connoly wins this, go E.
55. Tommy H - July 22, 2009 1:45 AM
entourage is a horrible show. the fact that people watch it just means america has gotten even dumber in the last few years. entourage= terrible garbage
56. Howie Feltersnatch - July 22, 2009 2:48 AM
Seth Rogen is a self-described communist. He is an ugly man and the least funny thing about most movies he's in.

Haven't seen Entourage, but those other HBO things are worthless (Sopranos, S.I.T.C.). Sopranos might be okay if The Punisher gutted one of those fat fucks every show.
Think I liked all the Seth Rogen movies I've seen. Losers are pretty funny. Hopefully seeing losers being worthless and stupid doesn't glamorize drug use too much.
@ 17 - Don't worry about Jeremy Piven. Him and Joan Cusack can always sniff for crumbs behind John Cusack.
62. Deacon Jones - July 22, 2009 9:44 AM
LOL, look at all these high and mighty bloggers trashing Entourage and saying it's for losers AS THEY POST COMMENTS ON THE SUPERFICIAL
63. KDUBBLL - July 22, 2009 11:22 AM
Entourage used to be an awesome show but,the last season was just plain boring and predictable, now their saying Obama will be on a episode this season? thats it for me, I'm glad I got rid of my cable, good riddance!
64. Andrew - July 22, 2009 11:35 AM
@24 and 15: Ha. No, my girlfriend doesn't like Oprah (and her show isn't interesting). She actually has reasonably good taste in television. And she got me to start watching it -- I KEPT watching it on my own.
If you want to act like you're too cool for Entourage, that's fine. Just stop wasting your time here and go do what you really want to do: jack off to Freaks and Geeks.
65. Kieth D - July 22, 2009 1:00 PM
I agree with many-Entourage is WAAAYYYYY overrated. It was a hip thing for a high school-college age group but it is definitely past. Not to mention the plots, acting, and actors are horrible. I hadn't watched for over a year and caught 5 minutes of it recently. It went from bad to worse.
66. Meream - July 22, 2009 1:40 PM
He is joking, right? Coz Seth can't be that big of an asshole. I adore him ;)
67. Eric R - July 22, 2009 2:09 PM
I think you have to have at least partial brain damage to watch and enjoy Entourage. Dumbest GD show I've ever seen.

Yeah, Rogen's comeback was a tad prosaic for a dude who's supposed to be a writer. Ah well. He still overwhelmingly eclipses the imbecility of Entourage, analogous to a basketball eclipsing a booger. Artistically, he's better, commercially ...jesus, add up the box office of his movies and any remaining dolt arguing the worth of his mettle needs to wipe my ass ...the only job you're qualified to have.
71. henhenhenhen - July 28, 2009 2:41 AM

72. Jon - July 31, 2009 9:18 PM
I`ve sat through 3 seasons, at friends houses etc. But I am going to stop there - its been a hollow and regrettable experience. Entourage is vaguely diverting and occasionally fun, but crucially for a TV drama - nothing actually really seems to happen. It drips with smugness (fine if there is something to be smug about, but not if your show is basically Friends for frat boys-albeit with less comedy) Any so-called dramatic crises get quickly resolved (problems which amount to landing another hugh movie deal or a pair of limited edition sneakers), every character is an obnoxious self-satisfied prick and gets bought a new ferrari at the end of every episode. You just wish that they would all die or end up homeless. Wahlberg puff project balls.
73. Billy - August 3, 2009 1:00 AM
I have realized something while reading all of the PRO ENTOURAGE comments. It's always about The cars are awesome and the chicks are hot. Never anything about fascinating dialogue or great acting.
From top to bottom the only project Seth Rogen has ever done that I disliked was "Observe and Report" but I don't think he had a hand in that movie except the acting part. Freaks and Geeks was amazing, Undeclared amazing, 40-Year old virgin amazing Superbad amazing, Pineapple express amazing and if it weren't for that cry baby bitch Kathryn Hiegel Knocked up would have been amazing but because of her Knocked up was pretty good.
And to the poster that's comment was Seth who? should really turn on the tv more than just sunday night 10:30 to 10:00
