Mark those shiny new calendars, Entourage fans. The Emmy-winning HBO comedy is establishing a second home next week on the male-oriented basic-cable network Spike TV, which will begin airing the series in syndication on Tuesday, January 12, at 9pm ET.

There’s also even a chance that episodes will air in their original order, considering that premiere night will feature the pilot “Entourage” and the second episode “The Review.”

HBO’s Entourage wraps up its sixth season on October 4 with the finale “Give a Little Bit.” And never fear, dear fans, because the comedy was already renewed for a seventh season at the beginning of August.

Also getting a renewal is the vampire drama True Blood, which airs on Sundays right now, as well.

By prevailing over other contenders, such as TV Guide Network, Spike TV has become the first network to obtain syndication rights to the series. It’s no surprise then that the premiere month …read more
