Las Vegas is an odd show. It doesn't really get much press, but just kind of chugs along doing well enough to keep NBC happy. It's one that I've watched for a long time. Apparently someone likes the cut of creator Gary Scott Thompson's jib though. He now has two new shows in the works. Over at CBS he has a script commitment for Protect and Serve. It is a police drama that Thompson descibes as having "a procedural edge to it." That sounds like it is right up CBS' alley.
Meanwhile, NBC has also given a script commitment to an untitled drama about a New York cop that makes for Hawaii after losing his family on 9/11. It's suggested that this one will have a Magnum P.I. feel to it. Let's hope it's more Magnum P.I. than Hawaii.

I have been a long time fan of Las Vegas as well. You don't hear much about it in the press but word of mouth really keeps the show going, I know I recommend it to everyone. I am thrilled that Gary Scott Thompson is doing more shows, I love his style. Las Vegas for example, when watching one episode of this show you run the gambit of emotions. I think TV needs more shows like this and Thompson is the man for the job.
