Pan Am is coming back.
Well, in a way it is. The Pan Am name is already in the process of becoming airline again as I posted HERE back in November. However, what I’m talking about today is a television show.
A pilot episode of a new TV show based on Pan American Airlines has been ordered by ABC. The concept around the show is the romantic glory years of jet travel for Pan Am: the 1960’s. Executive producer Nancy Hult Ganis worked as a fligth attendant herself starting in 1968 after walking past a Pan Am office in Detroit.
This is the kind of show that would thrill airline enthusiasts if done right. However, I firmly believe that this kind of show doesn’t have the kind of audience that ABC can view as a success. This is a show better done by one of the cable TV channels a la Mad Men.
But we can always hope that I’m wrong and it does succeed.
I hope that it does not get cancelled the show is GOOD so I should start watching it on tv instead of Hulu
Please don’t take this show off the air. I am so tired of the reality shows taking all the good shows spots.
There are so many different age groups and unfortunately the older age groups never win when coming to keeping their good shows on the air.
Please, please, bring this back.
Please, please, please bring Pan Am back!!
