I worked for Pan Am in an office at JFK in the 60’s. While waiting for my interview I struck up a conversation with a young lady sitting next to me. She was applying to be a stewardess. She was absolutely beautiful! She was called in before me and I saw her crying as she left her interview. I asked what happened. She was told to come back when her complexion cleared up. I swear I did not see any blemishes on that girl. Pan Am was VERY selective . Looks and weight were key. This show is spot on!

This is literally a world class series and I was so shocked that it got cancelled after Season 1. I simply cannot understand the rationale because this is so darn good.

Rather than reviving some seasons of other shows whom is still a flop, why not consider reviving this pure gem?

In 1969, my father took my brother and I to JFK to see off his friend on his honeymoon. They were flying to Europe on Pan Am. We walked on to the plane without a boarding pass or being searched to say goodbye. I remember looking into the cockpit marveling at all the dials and instruments. Eventually there was an announcement that all visitors need to leave because the plane was leaving. This was when flying was fun and you didn’t have to be searched like you’re a criminal.

It started with a grueling/very selective "charm school" that if you passed you then went to the even more selective technical school. And he emphasized the strict weight ranges by height that had to be maintained. It was a very elite selection process.

That was because in those days they actually cared about having their employees put forth a professional and attractive appearance which in turn helps to ease the potentially nervous passenger and helps to instill confidence in the flight and its crew. And that confidence was better placed on the flight attendant of yesteryear vs. those of today because the industry as a whole was much better regulated and higher standards were to be maintained and so flight crew selection & training were also held to higher standards. Nowadays, things such as tattoos, body piercings, freakish looking hair styles and colors, and excessively overwieght are all accepted and sometimes even encouraged. Sad really. I worked for a USA regional airline in the 1980s for just over 5 years and I can tell you that even then these things would never have been allowed.

I miss those days. I don’t think the airline hostesses lived this kind of lifestyle but it is kind of exciting to see this.

This brought back so many memories of the good old days of flying.

Juan Trippe was an incredible man and visionary leader for PanAm. A time when aviation was indeed incredible.

Goddess? You are starstruck by her, and it is understandable, she is really good-looking, but she is not a goddess, she is just a pretty actress whose career isn't really developing so well. I am not sure what is the problem, but it is obvious she was cast in too many films that were box office bombs, and that is highly damaging to her career. And those "goddesses have a short span, at best 20 years, and after that, she will not be looking like "a goddess"... I have nothing against her, but you are putting her on a pedestal she didn't deserve.

Wow, so many famous actors and actresses played in this? Margot Robbie, Christina Ricci, Mike Vogel, David Harbour

Today years old that I realized that she was Margot Robbie. I loved this show, and loved her character as well. Such a shame they never gave it a renewal to give it a good ending. If it had been released in the streaming years it would have been a succes and it would have gotten closure.

What I love about this show is that they give windows to the different culture of the world back in the 60’s, like one place have stark different vibes from the other and even when some of them are unfortunate stereotypes, the rest are pretty good.

I saw every episode and was sorry it was cancelled. It had a throwback ABC glam to it. I had never heard of Margot Robbie, but could immediately see she was going to be bigger than the show. She was stunning.

I got tired of catching only parts of a show or series online, or finding out it was no longer on Netflix or Prime. A while back I started buying the dvds of series and movies I really like. It's nice to be able to watch things whenever you want, have people over for movie nights or just binge watch a whole series at once.

My mom had a friend whose daughter was a stewardess for Pan-Am from 1966 to 1973, she said the weigh-ins were usually done with all the people in the office watching you and that Pan-Am had spies to watch you in airports, aircraft, and even some hotels in major cities. She said the passengers would grope her every day.

Said nobody sane. It was soon boring , and shallow , too. Worse , another of a thousand too female centric, sexist against males, and really superficial storylines . The runaway bride bit is so worn and overdone. Boring !

I’ll never forgive people for blowing this off when it first came out. This show deserved more than just one season

It's always a delight to see young Margot Robbie before she took off.

Almost a decade ago, I worked with two of the directors on this show for Scandal, another show on ABC which started a year after Pan AM was cancelled. One of them, Julie Anne, warmly shared with me her eye-opening experiences working with the VFX Supervisor on Pan Am. I recall that talk fondly, as a young VFX Supervisor myself. Seems like this show was not just a favorite among viewers but the also the people who worked on it. I haven't seen the show but I always feel sad when a show beloved by the cast and crew ends.

When you represent an Airline , you are on tip of your toes for the entire duration , I used to fly as an inflight crew for an Airline that's why i can only begin to understand how your entire crew had to do lot of hard work to come up with this episode ✔️

The problem is that this thing is basically a documentary about air travel in the 1960/1970s rather than an actual comedy or drama that could sustain multiple seasons. This show is an invaluable lesson for aspiring writers: always write for the characters, never for the setting.

People were dressed nice. Everyone was kind and helpful. I even got a pin that were my wings for my first flight from the pilot. Now, we fight, argue, go nuts because a baby cries.

No way it was realeased in 2011-2012?! I just watched Barbie (I did Barbieheimer) a few days ago and this was recommended right after I got back from the theater. I was so excited to see a new show with Margot Robbie in the 1960s, but damn I'm bummed it's cancelled. On the other hand tho this is really cool getting to see Margot when she was starting out in her acting career, it's def a contrast to how much of a star she is now in Barbie

I'm just now seeing it for the first time. Loving Pilot.

This show was so good! I think about it often … i wish they had kept going such potential

One of my favorite tv series of all time, I watched when originally aired but can't see how they cancelled it. It have all it takes to have multiple seasons. Even nowadays shows doesn't have it.
