Bait and Switch

For a show that’s been trying to sex things up more and more (usually the sign of a show that’s in danger of not getting renewed), it’s made precious little use of Nikki Cox, it’s bustiest cast member, who not only never appears in anything particularly alluring, but seldom appears at all. One is reminded of the ill-fated The $treet, which billed itself as Wallstreet with lots of sex and Jennifer Connelly, but in fact delivered little of either.

Trading hard-ons for ratings is all well and good — and so far Las Vegas has little else to offer — but the splooge vote won’t be won by Molly Sims and anonymous, bikini-clad extras alone. For that they’ll need to bring in the big guns, the ones featured in all the posters but seldom in the show itself.
