I'm sure that everyone now knows that Barack Obama's soon-to-be White House Chief of Staff, Rahm Emanuel, was the model for the Josh Lyman character on the West Wing. For me, that alone should be qualification enough for the job.
However, I was surprised to find out that Rahm's brother, Hollywood super-agent Ari Emanuel, is the model for the acerbic and foul-mouthed agent Ari Gold, played by Jeremy Piven on the TV series Entourage.
I am mega-impressed that both brothers have managed to become TV characters, but even more so that they are two of my very favourite TV characters.
For your amusement, here's a site of Ari Gold quotes. Filthy and side-splitting.
