I am – Hercules!!
HBO just announced that the final season of “Entourage” – maybe only six episodes long – will air next summer. (In unrelated HBO news, “Game of Thrones” premieres next spring.)
“True Blood” remains a ratings monster and even lowly “Hung” continues to draw larger audiences than the highest-rated episodes of “Weeds” and “Dexter,” which are Showtime’s most-watched shows ever.
