Fresh off his appearance in
the network television series, “CSI : Las
Vegas,” former mayor and Las Vegas icon, Oscar Goodman, is set to film the
pilot for a new, Las Vegas-based courtroom show, “Vegas Night Court with Oscar
Goodman.” Filming for “Vegas Night Court with Oscar Goodman” will take place inside the legendary Elvis Presley
Showroom at theLas Vegas
Hilton, beginning Friday, Nov. 18.
With his iconic Las Vegas
showgirls in tow and a glass of gin in hand, “Vegas Night Court with Oscar
Goodman” will feature real court cases and a gallery filled with celebrities
and Las Vegas notables.
“I
couldn’t be more excited to make my way back to the courtroom,” said former Las
Vegas Mayor, Oscar Goodman. “There’s no city in the world like Las Vegas and there won’t be a show quite like ‘Vegas Night
Court with Oscar Goodman.’”
“Vegas
Night Court with Oscar Goodman” is produced by Wayne Jeffries, manager of
History’s “Pawn Stars,” which is cable television’s number one show, and
five-time Emmy Award-winning Producer/Director, Jerry Kupcinet, who is often credited for creating the
template for courtroom shows on television. Kupcinet’s credits include “Judge
Judy,” “Judge Joe Brown” and “Cristina's
Court,” which won the first Emmy Award in the “Court Show” category.
Previously known as the
“Happiest Mayor in the World,” Oscar Goodman was admitted to the Nevada Bar
Association in 1965. Following a successful law career, during which he
represented several defendants accused of being some of the leading organized
crime members in America, Goodman served three terms as Las Vegas Mayor, from
1999 through 2011. Goodman’s film and television credits include Martin
Scorsese’s 1995 film, “Casino,” and the CBS television series, “CSI : Las Vegas.”
