By David Knox on July 13, 2009 / Filed Under Programming 14

las vegasNow here’s a show we’d all forgotten about…

Las Vegas is coming back to Seven from 10:30pm Sunday July 26th in all cities except Melbourne.

The episode “Run Cooper Run” will air in Sydney and Brisbane, ep 5 of the final series.

In Adelaide and Perth it’s a double ep: “Head Games” ep 4 + “Run Cooper Run.”

Melbourne joins on August 2nd with “Head Games”  + “Run Cooper Run” and continues with doubles on August 9th to catch up to the rest of the network.

The eps are from October 2007, whilst the series finished its run in the US in February 2008.

    Finally.

    …Here’s hoping the new DTV additional content stations will somewhat reduce this annoying practice of “This isn’t getting enough ratings. Let’s: A) pi** it off until school holidays; B) until nonratings season; C) until 1:30AM Mondays; or D) just forget about it entirely.”

    One of my all time favourite shows!

    They d**ked around with the schedule as usual.

    I finished up grabbing it elsewhere. Sort of finishes nowhere as mentioned. caualty of the writer strike.

    All the actors wanted to give it closure either as a few epeisodes or a movie but could not get the studio backing :(

    The loss of James Caan was a big blow fo this show. Although Tom selleck is a good actor and plays the billionaire owner with suitable style, he can’t match the grittiness that Ed Deline brought to screen.

    Oh dang! I thought you had news that for some reason they’d decided to make a sixth season! Oh well, without James Caan and Nikki Cox is wasn’t the same show.

    Las Vegas is one of favourite shows so I am glad to see it back – but not at late night Sundays!

    That’ll explain why I haven’t seen Season 5 on DVD yet… Ch 7 will play it now because it’ll be released on DVD soon! About time…

    Ah good loved Las Vegas.

    Even though the quality declined at an alarming rate in the last couple seasons but I’ll still gladly watch.

    The last great season featured the last great performance of Lara Flynn Boyle and watching her get blown off a roof top. A death only capable of being realised with an actress who ways 35kg like herself.

    not much point them playing it since the show was left hanging during the strike.

    Good on Seven for finally playing this show out and finding it a home.

    I love this show, seven play the eps out of order though so ill wait for the DVD

    Craig, Nine are worse – how many shows have they yanked that have never been seen again?. At least Seven seem to find a home for the shows that get pulled and play them out.

  13. Craig July 13, 2009 at 4:01 pm -

    OMG and though Nine was bad!

    BTW this show should have had a TV movie to end it properly after the writers strike cut it short…
