''Langt fra Las Vegas'' (''Far from Las Vegas'') is a Danish sit-com, which was first aired on the Danish TV channel TV2 Zulu. It revolved around life at a newly started TV morning show, ''Jump Start'', and focused on the life of the main character, Casper (played by Casper Christensen). ''Langt fra Las Vegas'' consisted of 53 episodes, aired over 5 seasons with each episode lasting 25 minutes. It ran from 2001-2003. ==Overview== The sit-com takes places in the studio and offices of fictional TV channel show ''Jump Start'' and in the main character Casper's apartment, both located in Copenhagen, Denmark. Generally the main story revolves around Casper (in later seasons referred to as by his full name, Casper Christensen) who is usually in trouble and tries to fix it with a lie, but always ends up getting caught. Issues of relationships and sex are often central to the show, and topics such as paedophilia and other taboos are touched upon often with a rich imagery (mainly by the Casper's boss Niels Buckingham). The show originated on a cable-channel targeting young adults (TV2 Zulu) and successfully made it to the parent, nationwide channel TV2 without any censoring. The city of Las Vegas is never featured nor even mentioned in ''Langt fra Las Vegas'', possibly a reference to the lack of professionalism and showmanship of the characters. The show drastically changed tone from season 1 to 2. Two characters, Wulff and Anne, were completely written out, and several characters returned with their personalities completely changed, such as Kenny being changed from the office smart-ass to a geeky character; Robert being changed from a childish security chief to a seemingly retarded cameraman; and Niels Buckingham, who had been an off-beat character whose sexual deviances were often briefly mentioned, being amplified into a full-blown pervert with every conceivable sexual fetish. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Langt fra Las Vegas」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
