They should bring out some vaccine for people like me who are getting addicted to Fox Crime :-) At first it was Criminal Minds. Now it is Las Vegas. Though I cannot catch any episodes during weekdays, last Saturday I managed to watch 3 of the 5 episodes that were shown back-to-back. Though I have been to the Sin City twice during my stay in the US, I never really took a liking to it. I must confess that the sheer cultural shock of watching rows and rows of old women playing the slot machines with drinks in their hands was partly responsible for it, it is equally true that I don't, as a rule, try my hand at anything that remotely involves Luck.

The show, however, opens your eyes to a whole new world that's hidden behind the glitz and glamor of the casinos. The dialogues are crisp and the characters are finely defined. I don't have any favorites as of now but Samantha could potentially turn out to be one. She is shrewd, fast and oh-so-practical. Delinda and Mary pale in comparison. As for the males, I am not partial to anyone - as of now. Nor do I see any possibility of favorites in near future.

So about that vaccine.....anyone? :-)
