Did You Know?
| Trivia | Andy Hallett said this episode was his "favorite-favorite-favorite!" because the cast and crew got to go on location to Las Vegas. He said, "I've always wanted to have like a Vegas show, so it's like a real Vegas show...except that all the people sitting in the audience were getting paid to be there." See more » |
| Goofs | Lorne was performing at the Tropicana (and all the exterior shots before and after take place near the Tropicana), at the southern end of Las Vegas Blvd., yet when they step out they are on Fremont Street (Downtown) almost 5 miles away. See more » |

Charles Gunn:
No one seems to be bothered by the fact that he's a demon. Fred: They must think it's all makeup like the Blue Man Group. You don't think the Blue Man Group... Angel: Only two of 'em. See more » |
