July has been a busy month for billboards with new and returning TV shows, summer blockbusters and more, creating an ever-changing skyline around L.A.
Sunset Strip July 2011
First up is a giant billboard for the final (eighth) season of Entourage, which is appropriately iconic.
Before Entourage, Curb Your Enthusiasm's eighth season billboard towered over the Sunset Strip with this fun Statue of Liberty homage.
Speaking of tributes, this My Little Pony 'Bridlemaids' parody of the recent Bridesmaids movie billboard was a favourite of mine.
Breaking Bad returned for a fourth season with this eye-catching yellow billboard, complete with danger signs, which really caught my eye.
More excitement came in the form of this cool Torchwood billboard for the fourth season of the Doctor Who spin-off and first to be co-produced by Starz and the BBC. Torchwood: Miracle Day is shaping up to be a great series, so let's hope it's a success and gets renewed.
Rizolli & Isles returned for a second season and the cute handcuff and scalpel earrings are a nice touch for the crime-solving duo if you look closely.
Not long now until my favourite reality show comes back for a ninth season. Heidi Klum and Tim Gunn certainly know how to brighten my Summer days with Project Runway. Make it work, indeed.
Finally for TV this month is another parody, this time for a new procedural crime comedy spinning out of Adult Swim's Childrens Hospital.

Movie billboards
This cute billboard for The Smurfs really stood out this month, it's bright and vibrant and a fun homage to Charles Clyde Ebbets 'Lunchtime atop a Skyscraper' photograph from 1930's New York.
Captain America stood out patriotically over Sunset Plaza this month and I even got the change to attend the World Premiere of the movie which was amazing.
It's a really great Summer movie and makes me very excited for the forthcoming Avengers movie in 2012.
I loved the scenes-from-the-movie style of Crazy Stupid Love billboards this month. Be sure to check out all four creatives for the film and more movie billboards from July 2011 at Daily billboard.
Music billboards
In case you couldn't tell from the billboard, Beyonce has a new album out called '4'.
Performing Arts billboards
Shrek: The Musical is in town this month at The Pantages Theatre and had this fun billboard in Studio City.
Theme Park billboards
And finally, Universal Studios Hollywood advertised it's money-off entry promotion with Coca-Cola with this fantastic King Kong ride billboard which looks like it's crashing out the side of this building. If you like this, be sure to check out their King Kong 3D billboard installation which actually has real mannequins hanging from it - it's pretty cool.
Stay tuned for July's fashion and lifestyle billboards from around L.A...
