Both true observations, badbaby. I always ask about the running time of the show, which I include with the review. And yeah, I checked my watch a lot.
Those five seconds felt awfully long...

Hi LasVegasLawyerGal: Fixed the HBO/Showtime error, thanks.
To your other point, I'm reviewing all the standing shows on the Strip, including the monuments like "Jubilee!" The point is to create an online archive of fresh reviews. You can find them here:

Thanks, commenters, for reading and for sharing your thoughts.
When writing a review, I try to focus on what is, rather than what was.
Quote to consider:
"There's nothing tragic about being 50," says Joe Gillis in the 1950 film "Sunset Boulevard," speaking of the faded movie star Norma Desmond, who dreams of making a triumphant return to the screen. "Not unless you're trying to be 25."
The paragraph above is from the book "Empire of Illusion: The End of Literacy and the Triumph of Spectacle," by Chris Hedges. Fascinating reading, especially if you are involved in any way with Las Vegas entertainment, from Strip shows to UFC bouts.
