"The Casino" looks good!

Shelley and I taped the first episode of The Casino and watch it last night. This first show was rather entertaining.

This first episode had a frat boy licking whipped cream off a semi-naked girl during a bachelor party. "We thought it looked like a bikini, but they just freaked out over there," said executive producer James Bruce.

One of the high rollers, card-counting regular "Big Chuck, who had been hitting on ladies the whole night, finally convinced a "lady in red" to come up to his room. Later finding out "she" was a dude.

We were also be introduced to colorful casino denizens like Frank Sinatra wannabe Matt Dusk. Reminded me of that guy from American Idol.

Each episode will focus on two or three guests of the Golden Nugget as they try their luck at the tables and occasionally bump into Breitling and Poster's celebrity investor pals, including Andre Agassi, the Barenaked Ladies, Jewel and Tony Bennett.

Viewers will also be introduced to colorful casino denizens like Matt Dusk, "Big Chuck," and officials from the Gaming Commission, who think there's a link between one of Poster's pals and the Mafia.

The show, which will run 13 episodes, includes such only-in-Vegas moments as a catfight between a stripper and a bachelorette and a high roller who loses $200,000 at the tables.
