Trivia

Kathleen Detoro, costume designer for the series, found a turquoise ring specially for Carrie-Anne Moss and gave it to her. Moss liked the ring so much that she has been wearing it all the time on the set and on her scenes if you look closely at her hands, you can see the ring.

Goofs

This is on going. Several of the Sheriff's patrol cars are 1963 Fords and this show, being set in the fall of 1960, these cars were not built yet.

User Reviews

Good old-fashioned sheriff show

"Vegas" has everything you need for a good, old police story. Based on true events that follow the life and work of the sheriff of Las Vegas. All the characters in the series are clearly defined, without unnecessary drama nonsense. It is a Lamb sheriff, who was for many years the sheriff in Las Vegas since the first casino to mid seventies. Dennis Quaid portrays a rancher who became a sheriff and who catches the first time in the fight against organized crime, sexual predators and maniacs at the time far, far from that described in the CSI: Las Vegas. No microscope, DNA laboratories. There are only a fist, shotgun and boot in the butt.
