"Seth Green Day" is the tenth episode of the fifth season of the American comedy-drama television series Entourage. It is the 64th overall episode of the series and was written by producer Ally Musika, and directed by Ken Whittingham. It originally aired on HBO on November 9, 2008.
The series chronicles the acting career of Vincent Chase, a young A-list movie star, and his childhood friends from Queens, New York City, as they attempt to further their nascent careers in Los Angeles. In the episode, Eric is forced to meet with his nemesis, Seth Green, to help Charlie with a television pilot. Meanwhile, Ari tries to get Barbara to change her mind and get her to hire Andrew in the agency.
According to Nielsen Media Research, the episode was seen by an estimated 1.83 million household viewers and gained a 1.1 ratings share among adults aged 18–49. The episode received generally positive reviews from critics, although some criticized the pacing.
Eric (Kevin Connolly) informs Charlie (Bow Wow) that his pilot has been picked up. However, the network informs them that they want Seth Green to be part of the series, alarming Eric as he is still in bad terms with Green after their previous encounter.
Tensions continue arising between Vince (Adrian Grenier) and Verner (Stellan Skarsgård), with both believing the other is to blame. As Barbara (Beverly D'Angelo) is still unconvinced over handing the TV division to Andrew (Gary Cole), Ari (Jeremy Piven) decides to schedule a meeting. He and Lloyd (Rex Lee) help him with a makeover, but he has a panic attack when Barbara insults him. Ari decides to crash an event commemorating Barbara, humiliating her in front of the audience. She is forced to accept Andrew, but warning him that any losses will have to be covered by Ari himself.
Green decides to humiliate Eric by having him call Sloan (Emmanuelle Chriqui) to get the TV offer. Eric visits her, although he does not mention the offer. Green eventually accepts to being part of the pilot, although he continues mocking Eric over Sloan. When Green threatens to get Nick Cannon instead of Charlie, Charlie attacks him and causes the executives to recast their roles.
