Thursday night, still the busiest on the box…

9pm, The Mentalist, Five
Simon Baker’s more ardent female fans will be heartbroken to hear that the actress playing an actress in tonight’s episode is Simon’s real-life wife Rebecca Rigg. There’s a welcome break from the Red John tension, but Jane reveals his more merciless side as he investigates a movie producer’s death.

9pm, Reaper, E4

Turtle gets some flash birthday gifts from Vince and Jamie-Lynn, making him reconsider his career path, so he turns to Ari for advice, and Eric gets nervous about Charlie’s pilot based on feedback from his latest girlfriend. Well, we say girlfriend. Obviously ‘fling’ would be a more accurate term.

NEW COMEDY Well, not strictly new - it was on Trouble before, but you may have missed it. It stars Bret Harrison, who is now of course in Reaper. Bret plays Sam (there must be something in his contract), a young man who lands a job as an airline executive, but then has to find a balance between work and his hectic social life with his slacker friends. The pilot is great, but the reviews we’ve read implies it takes a dive toward the end of the series…

When’s it back? ITV2, Thursday 11 September

There are more scandalicious shenanigans than ever in the fifth season of Entourage, which hits the UK just four days after it airs in the US.

Season 4 left off with the boys larging it at the Cannes Film Festival, where Vince’s movie Medellin had totally bombed, and the film’s backer pulled out of the deal, leaving the boys pretty much high and dry.

Now back in LA and facing up to the fact his name is box-office mud, Vince (Adrian Grenier) is desperately trying to find ways of rejuvenating his career. But if he thinks he can rely on his ever-shifty agent Ari (the brilliant Jeremy Piven) to sort things out, he can think again…

Meanwhile, the hilarious Johnny Drama (Kevin Dillon) becomes a TV triumph (unlike his relationship with Jacqueline, the girl he pulled in Cannes), Turtle (Jerry Ferrara) begins to question his role in the gang, and Eric (Kevin Connolly) fights to turn his indie film script into reality.

As ever, expect stacks of brilliant big name cameos. US Olympic champ Michael Phelps filmed a scene last week, while Gossip Girl’s Leighton Meester is back as Vince’s old flame Justine. Lukas Haas and Giovanni Ribisi play two screenwriters managed by E, and Jamie-Lynn Sigler, Whoopi Goldberg, Bow Wow, Tony Bennett and Mark Wahlberg (the show’s exec producer) all pop in throughout this superb series.

Here’s a little preview featurette from US TV Guide to get you in the mood…
