  • Unfortunately cancelled after it found its footing.

    I started watching the show when it debut and while it had a good premise, I found it to be rather humdrum. However I stuck with it because I've always enjoyed the characters portrayed by Jason O'Mara (Life on Mars, Terra Nova, and the Dennis Quaid / Michael Chiklis thing seemed a good dynamic. After about 5 episodes in, I was hooked as the show seemed to find its footing, the characters had chemistry and I was looking forward to the next show. As soon as I started to really enjoy it and looking forward to the next episode, I find it's on the edge of cancellation... then eventually cancelled. Too bad; it probably didn't retain enough viewers from the first few episodes.moreless
  • Cancellation; just as I feared!

    Too bad. It was a good series, on the whole. My only consolation is that it will be taking the never-should-have-been-aired-at-all "Golden Boy" with it!

    "Vegas" was in my opinion the best new show of the 2012-13 season. From the second I first learned of the series I was eager to see it when it premiered. Having two great and tremendously talented actors Dennis Quaid and Emmy Award winner Michael Chiklis was all the reason I needed to tune in. However they were not the only reason why "Vegas" worked. Quaid and Chiklis had a great supporting cast as well. Jason O'Mara, Taylor Handley and Sarah Jones were all excellent in their respective roles. The series also benefitted from solid script writing and a very impressive production design. The great sets and costumes did very well in recreating the time period. As I have said in previous reviews and posts it is very unfortunate that all of these great elements were not enough to keep "Vegas" alive. I will truly miss this great show next season. Well, it was good (Not good, great!) while it lasted.moreless

    HOw come every time I find a show I like they get me hooked & then take a 6 week break. I'll never understand why networks do this. It's as if they want to lose viewers.
  • I Love the show.

    I love the show but keep it on a scheduled. If I flip and its not there then its a pain in the ass. I cant stand so called reality TV. Its not real people. If you want reality toss them on an island hide all the cameras and let them go "lord of the flies" last one standing gets the million bucks. The drama on Vegas is well thought out and I love the actors. Chiklis is as good as the Shield and I watched every show religiously. I would be there on the channel 5 minutes before the start and there till the second airing was over. Dont can the show. The only other shows I watch are NCIS/NCIS LA. Its as good as thouse. Find a slot let it settle in and the viewers will come.. BACK because they will be able to find it.moreless
