Premieres Tuesday, January 2, 2018 at 9:00PM ET/PT

Los Angeles to Vegas: it's a weekend flight that you can take from the first city to the second city every weekend to escape everything and let what happens in Vegas stay in Vegas. Fox's newest sitcom, LA to Vegas, follows a flight crew that makes that trip every weekend, along with some of the familiar passengers who make that trek every weekend and a few guests who come along.

On Fox’s LA to Vegas, Dylan McDermott proves to be shockingly great at self-parody (http://uproxx.com/sepinwall/la-to-vegas-review-dylan-mcdermott-dermot-mulroney-derbel-mcdillet/)
“Scene after scene, McDermott gets laughs out of things that don’t seem like they’d be at all funny on the page," says Alan Sepinwall, “like the way Captain Dave tackles an unruly passenger, or the sheer joy in his eyes when he’s posing for a magazine photoshoot. That smile that I didn’t know he had? It’s both unnerving and hilariously ingratiating.”
