There's also a new TV series that takes place in Las
Vegas premiering tonight, Tuesday 4/8. It's named
"Lucky" and is showing at 10 p.m. PDST on the F/X
Channel.
From last week's LVA LITE:
TV Trifecta
With one gambling-based TV show having premiered this week, a Las
Vegas-oriented show debuting next week, and a casino-themed pilot having
been filmed in Las Vegas last month, Sin City's pop-cultural exposure is
being kept at maximum levels. The Travel Channel's "World Poker Tour,"
which has World Series of Poker winners such as Chris "Jesus" Ferguson
providing color commentary during poker tournaments, premiered
Wednesday. This Tuesday (April 8), "Lucky," starring My Big Fat Greek
Wedding's John Corbett as ficitional compulsive gambler Michael "Lucky"
Linkletter, debuts at 10 pm EST on the FX Channel. Finally, an NBC
pilot, tenatively titled "Las Vegas" and set to star James Caan as a
member of a casino security team, was taped recently along Fremont
Street, where footage for "Lucky" was also shot.
