Imagine a more southern-fried version of the Montecito, and that's what you see when Ed, Danny and Sam head south to New Orleans to visit their corporate collagues down there - during Carnivale, no less - on the hunt for an elusive gambler who has earned the unwanted attention of a career criminal.
What we see in The Crescent City is...aside from much more excitement on the casino floor, down home, southern drawlin' versions of Danny, Ed and co, including Dennis Hopper as Jon Castille, the Louisiana version of Big Ed Deline. Danny gets to match wits with his alter ego (for want of a better word) A. J. Laveau, brilliantly and feistily played by Lola Glaudini. Of course, there are plenty of New Orleans/deep south stereotypical scenarios jammed into the forty-two minute episode. Blink and you'll probably miss one!
A fun episode that also features a Little Richard cameo - a New Orleans spin-off would've been a lot of fun.
