Josh Duhamel and Friends Celebrate 100 Episodes
Josh Duhamel and Friends Celebrate 100 Episodes
He’s e engaged to one of the hottest singers out there, and his show, NBC’s Las Vegas, has just celebrated its 100th episode. Translation: Josh Duhamel is on top of the world.
Josh was joined by Molly Sims and the rest of the Las Vegas cast at the Palms Casino and Resort, where Mayor Goodman presented the Keys to the City to the cast and creator of the show as a congratulatory gesture.
Duhamel looked smokin’ in his t-shirt and jeans combo topped off with a jacket and some seriously cool hair. Meanwhile Miss Sims brought her fashion A-game in a black and silver mini-dress and a pair of sexy knee-high boots.
Las Vegas creator Gary Scott Thomas told press that the key to his show’s success is in the tension between the humor and drama. “We’re really a true dramedy. A lot of shows say they’re dramedies but they aren’t. Because even when the worst thing possible is happening, the other story line will be hysterically funny. The idea from the beginning has been that, much like Las Vegas, no matter what happens, the fun always goes on.”
And Universal Media Studios president Katherine Pope says the show has, “a very tricky tone: sexy and funny and soapy and serious. The goal for the show always was ‘fun’ and ‘wish-fulfillment,’ but I think what Gary has done over the years is reinforce the familial aspect—that these people really do care about each other.”
She continued, “As much as the show is about sexy, beautiful people working in a sexy, beautiful place, it really is more about the fact that they always support each other. And that’s kind of the place where we’d all like to work.”
