Las Vegas (2003–2008)
6/10
Overall, a good show, but not utilizing the best actors.
24 June 2006
I have watched this show now for three years and although I still will continue to watch, my overall interest in the show has decreased somewhat. The best part of the show is, was, and always will be James Caan. The problem is that the writers don't seem to know what to do with his character anymore. They seem to be softening him up, and kind of ruins it for me. I like the tough Ed Deline who won't take crap from anyone.

My other complaint would be that they really are not utilizing Nikki Cox to the best of her ability. This girl is a pretty good comic actress. I think with some good material, she could possibly steal the show. I always liked the dynamic between her and Josh Duhamel. They're on again, off again, love story has always been the heart of the show for me.

Finally, they seem to be putting Molly Sims front and center lately, and although she is a great supermodel, her acting seems forced and wooden. I would prefer to see more of Nikki, Vanessa, and James Lesure.

Overall, I would recommend Las Vegas, if for nothing else, it is an hour of fun and sin once a week.
