NEWS & SPOILERS
(Newest information is added to the bottom)

  • This episode title was revealed by executive producer Joseph Mallozzi at his blog. The original working title was "CSI Atlantis."

  • "A Vegas episode finds Lt. Col. John Sheppard in the midst of a CSI-like murder case."
    (TV Guide magazine)

  • "We finally got to read a first draft of 'Vegas,' written (and soon to be directed and produced) by Rob Cooper. I told Rob that one of the great things about this show is that the series premise allows you to tell a wide variety of stories. 'Vegas' is very different from anything we've ever done on Atlantis before. Different in a very good way. And I'm sure the fans will agree."
    (Executive producer Joseph Mallozzi, in a post at his blog)

  • "We're just going to have to trust that Rob will be able to control himself and not blow the show's budget on all the spectacular sequences he has in mind -- or on 22 black."
    (Executive producer Joseph Mallozzi, in a post at his blog)

  • NEW! August 5 - "Paul is writing episode 100 as we speak. Looking ahead at the schedule, we'll wrap production here in Vancouver, then shoot our outstanding Vegas days down south to wrap the season."
    (Executive producer Joseph Mallozzi, in a post at his blog)

  • NEW! August 23 - "When another body turns up in the desert outside of Las Vegas, Nevada, Detective John Sheppard is called in to investigate. Sheppard is a homicide detective, but the murderer he has to hunt down now is unlike anyone -- or any thing -- he has ever seen.

    "Sheppard tries to dodge a news reporter when he arrives at the crime scene. The reporter suggests that, if this victim is like the others, the city may have a serial killer on its hands. The local authorities have already arrived, and show Sheppard the body: it looks as if the man had the life sucked out of him.

    "At Detective Sheppard's office, Captain Lopez introduces him to someone who will aid him in his investigation: Agent Woolsey of the F.B.I.

    "Elsewhere, in a cheap motel, a very ill, middle-aged businessman throws up. To make life worse, his neighbor is blaring heavy metal music. The man collects himself and goes over to pound on the door. He's shocked by what he sees when the door opens. A Wraith hand reaches out to feed."
    (GateWorld spoiler report)

  • As information is listed here while the episode is still
