So I talk mostly about what I think are serious issues in this blog, but today I have to talk about my new little obsession. "Las Vegas." No not just the town, although I did enjoy my trip there very much, the too shot-lived TV show on NBC.
Las Vegas ran from Fall of 2003 through the winter of 2008. Now I know what you are thinking, that's not a short-lived stint! Well if you watch it now like I do you would think so.
The show follows around various characters working in the fictional Montecito Resort and Casino on the strip in Las Vegas. The characters range from Ed DeLine, an ex-CIA man who is now running Casino security, to Sam Marquez the self described "Best Casino host in Las Vegas".
But why/how am I all over this show now? One word, syndication. TNT runs Las Vegas everyday at noon and 1. I can't get enough of this show! My roommate for the summer and I got into the show about halfway through season 3, and since TNT runs the shows in order, we are now halfway through season 4 and wondered what went on previously. That is why my NetFlix is full up on Las Vegas DVDs.
This exciting show is great to watch and easily addicting. I don't know what I'm going to do when TNT gets to the end of the series in a few weeks. Especially since I read online that the series was expectantly in February of 2008 and left many cliffhangers that will never be answered.
