Johnny Drama's 13 Funniest Moments On "Entourage"

Let's be real: While movie star Vincent Chase (Adrian Grenier) might be the breadwinner, E's (Kevin Connolly) the voice of reason, and Jerry "Turtle" Ferrara is the king of kush on executive producer Mark Wahlberg's semi-autobiographical HBO hit Entourage, it's surprisingly the crew's washed-up elder, Johnny Drama (played by Kevin Dillon), that serves as the show's moral backbone.

Well, maybe not, but allow us to rephrase. Over the past seven years, the C-list actor has taught us a thing or two about persistence, facing more rejection than the rest of his buddies (and probably the rest of the town) combined. However, despite the string of doors closed in his face, mishaps with women, and bursted bubbles of every variety, the guy forges on, refusing to let the industry keep him down.

And if there was any doubt about the character's greatness, Dillon, who's no stranger to sharing genes with another celebrity (he's the brother of Matt Dillon), has been honored for his portrayal of Drama with Emmy and Golden Globe nods, at times stealing Jeremy "Ari Gold" Piven's thunder as Entourage's greatest character.

Before the series finale airs this Sunday night, check out our list of Johnny Drama's 13 Funniest Moments On Entourage, and experience all kinds of victory.

When Vince admits to the crew that things are back on with former flame Mandy Moore, a day before her birthday no less, a skeptical Drama bestows upon his brother his finest nuggets of dating wisdom when it comes to women and high holidays. You might want to grab your pencils and paper; it's no wonder the guy can’t keep the ladies away.

There are times when it seems like the dogged Chase brother can’t ever catch a break. When Drama’s superstar sibling temporarily parts ways with Ari Gold, he finds out before long that his own representation was only the agency’s means of keeping his younger brother appeased. However, when the notoriously douchey Adam Davies drops the bomb that he’ll consequently be dropping Drama, hilarity ensues as the actor refuses to go out without a fight flatscreen TV.

It’s aggravating enough dealing with distracting-ass people who can’t stay in one place during a good flick, but when it's your brother's huge movie premiere? Don’t even think about attempting that shit on Johnny Drama’s watch. Watch here as the Aqua-brother claims victory over a mobile moviegoer without so much as removing his eyes from the screen.

Turtle’s mission to track down the artist behind the mysterious, albeit dope, CD discovered in the boys’ car leads the crew into realms previously unexplored: black people’s houses! With Turtle serving more or less as the squad’s interpreter, he does his best to keeps the offense levels low, tackling damage control when it comes to Drama’s entertaining attempts to keep it gully.

When it comes to stress, different people have different coping mechanisms. Some like to meditate, others like to exercise, and then there are those for whom there’s no better remedy than simply rubbing one out.

When Drama struggles to tame his nerves before an important shoot, he happens to notice a copy of Maxim in his trailer and proceeds to tend to his anxiety by tending to his wood. However, he neglects one simple rule that all actors should follow when venturing south: Never leave your mic on.

When E’s possession of a “sport-fucking” gene is called into question by the group, a bet is placed between the Chase brothers as to who can get laid first between Vince’s manager and the equally celibate Turtle before the day's end. In mid-wager, Drama unleashes some of the show’s most unbeatable one-liners as he elects to take the latter under his wing.

We’re sure flailing actors are used to unphased casting folk openly checking their emails, making calls, and, shit, even shopping online while the wannabes pour their hearts out into their cold reads. Still, there’s nothing like seeing one of them stick it right back to the man, which is exactly what Johnny Drama does in what might be one of the greatest audition sequences ever featured on TV. Really, who gives a fuck about CSI: Minneapolis, anyway?

As Ari’s daughter celebrates her new womanhood amongst family and friends, ganja enthusiasts Johnny and Turtle opt instead to celebrate the bat mitzvah buffet outside with a couple of middle-schoolers. When their underage new acquaintances pull out a joint, however, requesting a light from the two, the boys get a chance to practice their intervention skills.

Though Drama consistently manages to keep his cool in the presence of A-list legends, from LeBron James to Kanye west, the dude just couldn’t seem to contain himself (at least down below) when it came to his new castmate, Brooke Shields. While he doesn’t out and tell her that she’s the first celebrity to whom he ever serviced himself, it becomes pretty evident during a brother-sister scene between the two, in which he shows her, well, a little more love than he intended.

Road rage: It can turn even the most reasonable and big-hearted dudes into beasts. As Johnny Drama is, for the most part, neither of these things, you can only imagine his appetite for destruction when it comes to a certain loud-mouthed surfer tailing him too closely after what he thinks is a failed audition. When the guy takes a dig at Drama by shitting on his lack of work, dude learns the hard way that you can say what you want about Johnny… But touch his career and you’ll pay the price.

Chances are high that you didn’t know what a “furry” was before this episode. At least we hope not. Thankfully, we all have Vince’s knowledgeable brother to broaden our sexual horizons, keeping us up to speed on some of the weirdest shit going down behind closed doors.

After Turtle can’t bring himself to seal the deal with a chick who wants him to sport a bunny suit during the act, costing Drama a painful $5,000, his booty mentor decides that if he's going to be defeated, he’s at least getting it in.

While Johnny Drama’s conquests throughout the series admittedly might not always be of the same caliber as his superstar half-brother’s, they trump Vince’s girls hands down when it comes to delivering the laughs. Check out the older Chase’s short-lived love affair with a woman who looks like she got lost on her way to a WWE match.

As much as we enjoy our boy Drama’s endless fails, we do also like watching him succeed (which, we all know, is a rare occasion indeed). Despite the former Viking’s many “Victory!” cries throughout the show's run, none seem quite as potent, making stronger men than us tear up like babies, as the outburst seen above, where Drama learns that he isn’t the failure he thought he was. As our hero looks out into the abyss and lets it rip in the series' definitive "guy-cry" moment, we've got to admit that we all felt his victory too.
