In a recent installment of Larry King’s web talk show, Larry King Now, the host interviewed Dennis Quaid about the actor’s CBS TV show, Vegas. They talked a lot about various aspects of the show and Quaid gave King a tour of the impressive set.
On two occasions during their discussion, King described Vegas as being a successful series. The second time, he called it “an enormous hit” and asked Quaid if he would stick with the series if it ran for eight years. The actor seemed a bit uncomfortable and was careful not to agree or disagree with what King was saying.

CBS will announce their plans for the 2013-14 season on or before Wednesday, May 15th. As we do every year, we’ll have all the latest news on renewals and cancellations as soon as they’re announced.

I wish desperately that we had at least some conclusion with the character of Catherine. Having such a crucial character left in a coma for the last two episodes is really hard to come to terms with. I have no doubt that if the show had been renewed she would have recovered and maybe become DA, and her relationship with Ralph would have developed (but still probably remained a… Read more »
