Where were you in 1963? If you spent any time in the air you will feel like you have gone back in time watching Pan Am.
But that's where the coolness of Pan Am ends. In Pan Am we follow beautiful Stewardesses (they weren't called flight attendants back then) as they enter the jet age... and the cold war age. Here is how ABC describes their new drama, "In their individual quests for adventure, the Pan Am crew face both opportunity and peril, as they juggle their lives, their loves, their hopes and dreams while flying around the world to glamorous international cities like Paris, Berlin, Jakarta and Monte Carlo. Welcome aboard, and fasten your seat belts... Adventure awaits!"
Sounds exciting, but it's not. If you want to relive a little of the golden age of flying when we had "Champagne Service" instead of the current cattle car mentality, go ahead and spend a few minutes watching the pilot of Pan Am. And if you're anything like me, you won't be around for the second episode.
Prediction: Pan Am lasts a month, then is replaced with Good Christian Belles.
Cancelled as expected.
