In response to the previous comment, I don't consider this episode a rip-off of "Almost Famous". They specifically mentioned that going to the party would be like "Almost Famous". They referred to the movie at least twice. I remember them saying it was his "Almost Famous moment" or something like that. So it's not a rip-off. It's more like a tribute to a great scene in a great movie. I absolutely loved this episode. Ari is just about the best character on television. His interaction with Lloyd & his wife, the scene at the marriage counselor's office... everything he does is just hilarious. That role was made for Jeremy Piven. I couldn't imagine anyone else as Ari Gold!
