Pan-Am

[sleepdodger]

Why did it end??
I just got newly released box set for Christmas after dh deleted it originally and it's fab! Esp vs all the rubbish which gets season after season!
Anyone join me in loving it?

I really enjoyed it but it seems we were in the minority!

I loved Pan Am, gutted it ended so quickly.

I really liked this and thought it was great. It seemed to flop for some reason. Maybe when Mad Men finishes someone might make a second season.

I think it just never got the ratings to justify the very large cost of making a costume drama Wiki notes the pilot episode cost 10 million bucks.

I enjoyed it and watched it again recently. But I would say its central problem was the ludicrous CIA storyline. It lost its way and didn't know if it wanted to be a soapy prime time serial, a spy thriller with tons of glamour, or some kind of exploration of social issues in the 1960s. The central premise - some people fly around in a plane - is not sufficiently interesting and I think the show makers went over the top trying to embroider extra stories to go with it.

I would have welcomed a second series to see if it could get itself back on course. Buffy did it, and more recently Unforgettable has had a second chance too. Shame that the talks about a second series weren't successful, but maybe its time will come.

I Loved it too. The whole sixties glamour of it, the dresses, the fun of it.
