This was one of the then fledgling UPN network's early shows. Sadly it was greatly overlooked by the viewing public, and was quickly canceled. Hosted by rapper, Sir Mix-A-Lot in the role of "the Watcher", the show was basically the Twilight Zone set in the glitzy city of Las Vegas. It was an anthology show with several mini-stories per episode. Each episode had different actors/characters each time, so there was no regular cast. It was quite a kick to see the group, Cheap Trick guest star in one episode as a fictional has-been rock group called Pandemonium. The strange quirky little stories were for the most part well written and quite memorable. The production value was also very good. But the real star of the show was the city of Las Vegas - so incredibly beautiful and glitzy, but beneath the neon glare was a shadowy underside.
