  Las Vegas (TV series) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Las Vegas is a dramatic television series about a team of people working in a Las Vegas casino called "Montecito Resort and Casino", dealing with issues that arise within the working environment, be it valet parking, restaurant management or casino security.
Because this character was generally disliked by other characters in the series, and had been portrayed as a buffoon, her death was generally played for laughs, including disposing of her ashes by flushing them down the toilet in her suite at the Montecito.
Las Vegas is set in the same universe as fellow NBC series Crossing Jordan.
