The Old Strip is an irreverent prime-time animated sitcom about a group of misfits trying to pursue fame, lust and unimaginable wealth in modern day Las Vegas.
Living on the outskirts of The Old Strip (Fremont Street), a group of shameless lowlifes attempt to find a way to survive day to day life in Sin City.
Though they are dealt a bad hand time and time again, the gang never knows when to quit as they always go all in.

He is willing to do whatever it takes to make some quick cash or get ahead in life no matter what it costs, even to his friends and family.
