This happy go lucky view of small town vice and statewide political side-stepping recounts the good times and the demise of the Chicken Ranch, one of the better pleasure palaces in all of Texas. Governors, senators, and even victorious college football teams frequent Miss Mona's until that puritan nemesis Watchdog focuses his television cameras and his righteous indignation on the institution.

Thorpe), Lauren Cora Marsh (Shy), Rachelle Wood (Angel), Michael Greening (Senator Wigwoah), Patrick Brownson (Governor), Shahara Ostrand (Doatsy Mae), Lisa Young (Jewell), Jenny Weiss (Dawn), Nicole Giordano (Linda Lou), Joanna Hickam (Ruby Rae), Kate Blair (Beatrice/Imogene), Stephanie Schmidt (Ginger), Donovan Arterburn (Mayor Rufus), Arthur Pierce (Edsel Mackey) and Clint Heyn (CJ Scruggs). The Aggies/Cowboys are played by David Ballew, Preston Britton, Ryan Everett Howard (Bandleader/Aggie), Chachi Martin, Christian Munck and Zack Nick.
