i didnt c anything posted for this new reality tv show so i thought id add it ...his show is a 13-episode series to air in the summer of 2004. It will provide a fly on the wall behind-the-scenes look at the Golden Nugget Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas. It will follow its new owners as they take over the business and attempt to bring it back to success. Starts June 14

This is also another Mark Burnett production. It should be interesting. Anytime someon "new" comes into an organization there is drama. My guess is there will definitely be drama with the
"new" owners.

Hmmm Looks like The censors strike again...well in the USA anyway. Seems Canada will get the racier version of this show:


quote:

Censors Cut Sin from Sin City
Reality show producer Mark Burnett (Survivor, The Apprentice) says that he has received "pages and pages" of notes from Fox censors demanding that he remove or tone down scenes in his Las Vegas-based series The Casino, which debuts on Monday. In an interview with Daily Variety, Burnett said that he has had to excise strategically blurred scenes of naked bodies, drop a storyline about a whipped cream bikini, and remove all mention of sex in the dialogue. "It's hard to tell a story about Sin City without sin," he told the trade publication. "The content has been very, very sanitized." Nevertheless, Burnett indicated that he sympathizes with Fox. "I blame Janet Jackson," he said. "It's the political climate right now. There's nothing acrimonious between me and Fox on this. I'm just not used to pages and pages of broadcast standards notes." Burnett said Canadian and Australian outlets have asked for the uncensored version of the show and he intends to comply with their requests.

We in Canada have no problems with boobies! lol

The premise of this show doesn't do a thing for me though, what is this really about? Following a couple of guys around their casino? Can anyone make this sound more interesting?

I watched it today for the first time. I'm not sure if it was the first show or not. But basically it's about the workings and happenings in a Vegas casino.

Anything from PR, to food & beverage, VIPs, security, etc

I liked it and I'll try to catch it again next time it's on.

I have watched American Casino on TLC or Discovery or one of those channels. There have been 2 episodes so far. This is the show centered around Green Valley Casino. The first episode was the chef building the sugar sculpture. The second was all about the Valentine's Day Slot Tournament, VIP check ins, fights & security, and the VIP helicopter tour.
I really like this show....it's low key, but enjoyable.

It sounds like they are watching a different show maybe? This new show is about the Gold Nugget in downtown Las Vegas.

Yes Brenda...there are 2 reality casino shows. The new Mark Burnett one...The Casino is about the guys who bought the Golden Nugget. The other is on Discovery Channel (I checked) and is called American Casino.

Starts tonight at the SAME time as Superstar USA and For Love or Money.. sort of a three way clash of the bottom feeders.. well actually I wouldn't want to miss Superstar USA ... and I don't want to wait until Sunday when that repeats.. so not sure what to tape.

Hamster.. is it that good? I still have 2.5 hours to decide..

It's better than I thought it would be. Granted, it's no 'The Apprentice' but so far, I would watch it again next week.

It is interesting to see how a casino really works. (and not the way they show it on The Discover Channel or TLC)

I could care less for For Love Or Money this time around. Tired out on the gold-digging.

LOL, sounds like you're in quite a pickle there Sea! :-) But more than likely, Fox will replay this episode of The Casino again.

Right now, they're getting ready to bust this card-counter. They've already had Andre Agassi on. <yummy> The Pornapalooza part is about to come on now and the whipped cream bikinis.

Anyways, sorry I can't help you decide what to tape and what to watch! LOL

At the party scene where the guy gave the girl a lap dance, did I see Stephen Baldwin in a trucker's hat in the background at the party cheering him on? Or are these sleepy eyes just seeing things?

Big spender card counting dude is sleazy cheezy!

I agree about the card-counting dude. "I go through 20 to 30 women a day...." How gross and nasty! He'll get his soon I hope....LOL

I didn't pick up on the Baldwin sighting or look-a-like sighting. Maybe somebody else saw it or will see it later and can verify? :-)
