This is one of the best TV shows that came out in recent years....


Bash it all you want, I said mine....

I know you must be joking. Actually, you are! Good one. This was such a HORRIBLE show. It's the worst thing I've ever seen! Most of the country could not stomach it, as shown by it's quick and painless cancellation. Take a look at certain points that if failed: The acting was terrible, the production values were nil, and the writing was horrendous. You can't just pop off a bunch of over-used buzz phrases and one-liners and expect to succeed ("what happens here stays here"......"vegas, baby!"...."That's the gamble you take" Come on!!!!)
So yes, the scripts were bad. The supporting cast was laughable. I really liked Rob Lowe in "Wayne's World", "Tommy Boy", "Illegially yours", and "Class" .....but this drek was pretty bad. It's better off not polluting the airwaves. The Vegas glitz and backdrop could not save this train wreck. May it never see the light of day, and may the folks who brought us this show move on and never mention this project again!!!
'night all!

That would make 3 Christmas' I've saved, vs. 8 that I've ruined; two were kind of a draw..

I totally agree with you. I've only seen two episodes of it, but I love it. Can't belive they cancelled it :(

I LOVED THIS SHOW and was in literal shock when they cancelled it. I blame it on the difficult Friday night timeslot it had, because I was always at football games (a requirement for being in band) and would come home only to catch the end. I don't think it did well competing against other shows.

Why would you be shocked? Poor ratings, terrible acting, lousy scrips.... snake eyes for Dr. Vegas!!!!

A 12-year old Benjamin Linus just brought me a sandwich. How do you think I'm doing?

I managed to catch the unaired episodes recently and the series did get better as it went along.

As a one season series it would've been fine but I don't think it had much legs to go beyond.
