The only part that was funny was when the Capt was doing his Mui Thai warmups behind the guy before attacking him.

The cocky captain, the fresh off the boat, pimple faced new guy first officer, the gay flight attendant, the hot slutty bimbo airhead flight attendant, and the stupid passengers. I also wouldn't be surprised to see some sexual harassment and alcoholism jokes make it it there, just to further reinforce the image of airline crews that the lazy producers of this hot garbage think the public is expecting. I guarantee you they put the best jokes in the trailer, and if that doesn't tell you all you need to know, I don't know what else will. This steaming pile of **** won't make it a whole season, mark my words.

EXACTLY!!!! It's Brilliant!!!!!!

Actually, the first 2 eps have been pretty funny, IMO. While certainly not Dead On Bawlz Accurate (It's an industry term) it's good enough for a comedy not meant to be taken seriously.

I for one will keep watching and hope it sticks around.

Saw the second episode last night on the DVR. Wasn't too bad. Mindless entertainment to absorb while I rock my 4 month old to sleep. Just watch out for the yips! If Capt Dave can overcome it, so can you.

I despise the show on principle. It does not represent FA's in a positive light. COME ON FOLKS! They have to get 175 plus fat ass brain dead cases of diabetes off a flaming plane in 90 seconds! POTENTIALLY! Maybe never, but if they do, our job is a lot easier.
