MISSING LINKS: CASINO CLAIMS




When a million dollars was stolen from the middle of a Las Vegas casino in plain view, insurance investigator Thomas Banacek was called in to take over the case.  We never learned the name of the casino, only that it was owned by reclusive billionaire Jonathan Jackson (a Howard Hughes type).

So I'm going to claim that the casino would later become known as the Montecito, once it was sold after the death of Jackson.  O'Bviously there was forty years of renovation to turn it into the sleek casino seen in the later TV show.


SHOWS CITED:
'Banacek' - "A Million The Hard Way"
'Las Vegas'

BCnU!

  1. And the Montecito is one of those spots that's very friendly for crossovers, as it also appeared on _Heroes_, _Passions_, and _Team Knight Rider_ (each setting up other crosses), plus in one episode, the casino staff mentioned the company of Dundler-Mifflin.

  2. The Montecito was one of the four inductees into the TV Crossover Hall of Fame in February of 2009.....
