Very well executed
... View MorePlot so thin, it passes unnoticed.
... View MoreGo in cold, and you're likely to emerge with your blood boiling. This has to be seen to be believed.
... View MoreThe storyline feels a little thin and moth-eaten in parts but this sequel is plenty of fun.
... View MoreI've only seen two episodes, the first, and finally the one where they diverted to Haiti.The appalling and unprofessional aviation detail is a disgrace to the legions of Pan Am employees who made Pan Am the great airline it was, they must be turning in their grave.As a young Second Officer with a competitor International Airline in the 1960's I used to look up to the old Pan Am skippers with awe and reverence - not the crew depicted here, way too young as others' have already mentioned - they can't even get the navigator in the right seat, in this last episode I heard "Chuck" described as the navigator for the sector, yet he is shown sitting at the Flight Engineers panel. Can't you even get the basics right !!It might, just might, be excusable to depict flying like this for a Soap Opera using a mythical airline name and logo, but to besmirch the fine name of Pan Am in this way is almost criminal in my book.Goodbye, no more for me, you've blown it.
... View MoreThis is a wonderful series. It makes you feel like you are there, experiencing everything with them. I've always loved the aviation industry, and i have been a frequent flyer since i was 7 because of family reasons. This show really tells the story of how it all started. The actors and actresses portray the characters in an outstanding way, and just the history of it, of it being real in most ways, is just amazing. This is a show worth every single minute and penny! It wouldn't surprise me if this show found its way into future classrooms!I am so angry that ABC are even considering cancelling it. They should do their homework and find out how many people are watching it and how many love it! I know that many DVR it, so they don't have to watch the commercials, or because they have to get up early on Monday's. Too bad money rules the world...
... View MoreI'm sooo disappointed in this, I really am.I had to stifle laughter often during the first few episodes - the "Captain" of the crew is about 25 years old for crying out loud! He and his co-pilot looking at each other laughing during take-off etc, I mean for God's sake!The "spy" stuff is just beyond belief, I mean, talk about being desperate for writing material!This is only good for your average 90 IQ girls, I can't believe any men would give this more than an episode or two before wanting a refund on their wasted time. SOME of the girls look good but you really won't want to be following the well-worn soap opera "plot lines" (basically weddings and romance and girls falling out with girls and boys and mothers and etc etc *YAWNATHON*).It's utterly pointless and the "Pan Am" setting could be anything, there's nothing here that is specific to Pan Am at all, it's purely a glamorous setting of convenience ...Turn the sound down (noone has anything interesting to say, ever), put on a favourite album and enjoy what (little, really) eye candy there is but seriously, for all but the braindead amongst us, this shouldn't even be in the top ten of your watch list.What was Christina Ricci thinking??!!What a waste ...
... View MoreThis is among my favorite shows. Interesting characters, exiting intrigues, thematic episodes and historical references in a good mix makes it interesting beyond pretty faces and romance. The fact that this show is in the 60's also makes it interesting. Issues like racism, the 2. world war, class distinction and equality between genders is discussed in the light of the time in a intelligent and nice way. And this without being intrusive. Still the show has romantic and humoristic settings that makes it appealing to a wide range of viewers. Still I think it's mostly a show for female watchers. If you are fan of shows like Grey's Anatomy and Mad Men I think and hope you would like this show as much as I do. I really hope this continues and keep up the high quality!!!
