It's National Hug Day -- Let's Hug It Out, Bitch

Ari Gold became an iconic TV character from the first foul-mouthed insults he ever uttered on 'Entourage.' But perhaps his most memorable moment came with coulda-been sweet peace offering, "Let's hug it out, bitch."

Since today's National Hug Day (according to this awesomely primitive website), after the jump you'll find a clip of Piven discussing the scene during a 2006 Paley Center panel. "Our inspiration, Ari, for this character, I saw him one time actually hugging my brother in law, Adam McKay, who's a screenwriter and director. He was hugging him so tightly it looked like Adam was maybe lactating and that Ari needed milk."

There's also a clip of infamous scene. You're welcome. And yes, we'll accept your gratitude for reminding you of this glorious TV milestone in hug form only.
