TV Series Review

In a place called Sin City, you’d better believe you’ll need a lawyer or two. Unfortunately, they’re just as chaotic as the Vegas shows themselves.

People come to Las Vegas to indulge and have fun, whereas legal proceedings tend to be the opposite. They’re boring and slow. That’s why Vegas lawyers amp up their performances to keep the jury and judge interested.

And Lincoln Gumb is the latest lawyer to find his footing there.

Lincoln is on his last dollars on account of his proper lawyerly conduct boring the courtroom to tears. That’s why he hires on Sheila Flambé. She’s a street magician, and he thinks her flashy skills might help him dazzle his audience enough to secure him a win.

It’s a gamble, for sure. But hey, isn’t that what Vegas is all about?

Keep It in Vegas

Every time you select a TV show, you gamble: It’s hard to know beforehand just how crude and problematic a show will be.

Well, that’s why Plugged In exists—to let you know which movies and shows are likely to give you a bad time. So let’s make this one really easy: Strip Law is a rigged slot machine.

You’d probably be able to tell that from the art style alone. Strip Law’s animation is reminiscent of many other adult cartoons whose jokes center around sex and being edgy. At this point, it seems these shows are copied and pasted from each other—and Strip Law is scarcely different.

And for a show about a man forced to reinvent himself to entertain his bored audience, it’s strange that Strip Law would be so unoriginal in its jokes. It’s the kind of show you’d expect to be entertaining those in the dystopian future of Idiocracy.

That’s why audiences can expect plenty of sexual references and some nudity, too. Violence includes characters exploding into bursts of blood. Crude language and drug use are common, too. And, as if Strip Law wasn’t edgy enough, the show spends an entire episode tossing out religious quips at Christianity’s expense.

But you know what they say: What happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas. Perhaps potential viewers should keep it that way.

Feb. 20, 2026 – S1, E1: “Finally, a Show About Lawyers”

As Lincoln considers closing his law practice, a male stripper walks in with a case Lincoln thinks could revitalize the firm.

At a male strip club, an announcer yells out, “Ladies, gay and bi dudes and everyone else—sexuality is a spectrum.” There’s a pride flag in the background of the club. The male dancers perform in their underwear, and the animation frequently focuses on how their partially clothed genitals move. Each of the dancers has a lewd name—as does the club itself. Later, Lincoln brings his team and his underage niece (wearing a blindfold) to the club.

Sheila wears a toga that exposes one of her breasts for an advertisement (what we see is pixelated). Female nudity is on display in two other scenes as well—objects covering their breasts—engaging in quasi-sexual activities with men. Someone’s bare rear is exposed as he or she performs unseen oral sex on another person. Sheila says she lost her virginity to a song. Sheila asks Lincoln to help her “expunge [her] lewdness charge.”

In court, a woman in her underwear holds up a “closing arguments” sign. A Vegas visitor streaks in his underwear. A man dressed as Austin Powers frequently comments on his arousal. A woman advertises pictures of her feet. There’s a reference to an “erotic buffet.” Lincoln dresses in a diaper for an ad.

A man attempts suicide, but the gun is wrestled from his hands. We’re told Lincoln’s mother was decapitated when she was hit by a truck. A shooting range allows patrons to target live cattle. A woman uses a rocket launcher to blow one of the animals to bits, leaving the other shooters covered in blood. We see the skeletal remains of a man. There’s a reference to the Unabomber. Two stores self-describe themselves as puppy mills.

Lincoln jokes that his mother is suffering in hell. He also pretends his mother went to heaven on account of him becoming a good lawyer. A background song describes Las Vegas as “living in sin with a safety pin.” Two people dress up as nuns to steal from a Catholic church that owes them money. A magician calls himself “Johnny Mutant the Hell Genius.” When Lincoln describes how Las Vegas was founded, he purports that the settlers must’ve thought it’d be a “wonderful town where a fella can get all the sins out of his body, so’s that God won’t kill him with lightnin’.”

A woman drinks from a flask. Lincoln becomes inebriated, and then he ingests pills (which he won from a slot machine) which cause him to hallucinate. People drink liquor and wine. A store advertises itself as a smoke shop.

Lincoln tells a story about a man who vomited on a woman’s baby.

We hear uses of “a–,” “b–ch,” “h—,” “d–n,” “d–k” and “p-ss.” God’s name is used in vain twice.

Feb. 20, 2026 – S1, E8: “We Need to Talk About Heaven”

In an episode almost certainly inspired by the story behind Heaven Is for Real, Lincoln gets involved in a religious case involving a boy who claims he died, went to heaven and came back.

The boy in question is Dilterton Timble, whose father claims Dilterton died during an appendix surgery at 4 years old and came back to life. Now, 10 years later, Dilterton still uses that story at a megachurch to answer questions from religious hopefuls who’d like to know a little more about what heaven is like.

Dilterton says that all dogs go to heaven and that people in heaven can redeem “heaven points” for games. He combines Bible verses with general conservative talking points. For instance, he says that though he walks “through the shadow of the valley,” [sic] he won’t be afraid because he open carries. And when asked about God, Dilterton says that the hardest thing God asks of His children is to have faith despite centuries of silence.

Dilterton’s father, desperate to revive his church’s religious fervor, hopes to kill Dilterton in surgery again, send him back to heaven to glean a few more details and then bring Dilterton back to life. Dilterton’s mother, upset that her husband is pressuring her son into killing himself for the church, comes to Lincoln for assistance in divorcing her husband and gaining custody of Dilterton. (At the end of the episode, the 14-year-old boy flatlines onstage as they wait for him to come back to life—which does not happen.)

When Lincoln and Shiela accept the case, Shiela hopes to disprove the heaven story and the existence of God through a magic trick. When the defense attorney argues that God doesn’t want the divorce to occur, Lincoln states that God doesn’t exist. This line causes Lincoln to become the “newest liberal firebrand,” and Lincoln embraces his atheistic fame, quipping plenty of jokes about Christian belief to anyone who will listen.

Lincoln asks a reverend if God could create a boulder so big that even He couldn’t move it. The reverend says that it’s a forbidden question. (This video by YouTuber Red Pen Logic provides real-world information about this “forbidden question.”) And when Lincoln threatens to call the flying spaghetti monster (a popular atheist caricature of god) to the stand, the reverend explodes into a gory mess.

At one point, Lincoln states that if God were real, He’d strike Lincoln down for his actions. After this, Dilterton’s father punches Lincoln in the face, telling the judge that, since God is busy protecting the troops, He sent him to strike Lincoln down for Him. When Lincoln enters a Catholic confessional, the priest tells him that there’s probably no afterlife—and he’s then personally fired by the Pope.

Sheila references her secular childhood, in which her atheist parents used a variety of Christian symbols to direct her toward a specific scientific career path. On hearing this, one listener becomes confused, since they thought the symbols meant Sheila’s parents were Christian.

Others on Lincoln’s team try to convince Dilterton to walk away from Christianity, enticing him with girls, drugs and more. A building’s demonic mascot yells out, “It’s h— o’clock, and I’m Satan.” There’s a reference to life forces. A reporter asks if it’s true Lincoln called for the head of the Pope (he never did). A Catholic man calls Lincoln an atheist devil worshipper. Someone says that she wants Dilterton’s father to go to hell. Lincoln goes to a bar called the “I H8 God” bar.

We learn that Dilterton manufactured the court case to create a movie that would be based on a true story. The resulting trailer for the movie begins with the MGM lion replaced by a depiction of Jesus. It’s shot in live-action and seems to parody God’s Not Dead 2. They title the movie “God Does Real.” Dilterton tells Lincoln that no matter who they meet in the afterlife, Dilterton will always be Lincoln’s god.

A man exposes his genitals to another man (we don’t see anything). One of Dilterton’s claims is that everyone in heaven gets the body of a “barely legal dime piece.” There are reference to lube and pubic hair. Lincoln’s atheistic charm causes a famous actress to want to leave her famous husband for him. Another woman claims Lincoln seduced her away from the church with promises of sexual ecstasy and “atheist gold.”

A joke references 9/11. A man burns down a building. A movie trailer depicts an atheist man screaming at his wife and snorting cocaine.

We hear one use of the f-word and one use of the s-word. We also hear “a–,” “d–n,” “d–k,” “h—” and “p-ss.” God’s name is used in vain five times, and Jesus’ name is likewise used in vain once.
