Trivia:

When the series debuted in 2003, it was hounded by critics who said it wouldn't last very long. For the 2004-2005 season, it was the only show NBC renewed for a second season.

Goofs:

Errors in geography: The Montecito is located across the street from the Luxor in the vacant area off the Vegas strip, yet all views from the rooms or ED's office are from the Mirage on the other end of the strip.

Quotes:

Delinda: Matt's really different. He's just so...
Samantha Jane "Sam" Marquez: Blind.
Delinda: I was gonna say warm, genuine and completely...
Samantha Jane "Sam" Marquez: Without sight.

One of the best, high-paced, fast-moving shows i've ever seen

I love this show! It is easily the most enjoyable hour of my week. I love it for the high-paced, fast-moving action in which it contains. I love the way it gives a large overview of the state of Las Vegas and how casino floors really operate. The cast is exquisite and full of talent. How can a show not be great with James Caan leading the cast each week? Yet, the best thing about the cast is he doesn't have to carry the show either. While his acting is supreme, he is aided by the talents of his co-stars. Las Vegas has a different storyline each week and keeps the viewer guessing as to what will be the ending in each episode. The camera use is magnificent with the use of fast-motion that really draws the viewer into what is actually happening. A great TV show to watch either by yourself or with friends and family. 10/10
