Flight Attendant Christina Ricci and the 'Pan Am' TV Show Are Totally Coming to ABC

Yes yes yes yes! ABC has picked up the Pan Am TV show pilot for its 2011-2012 season. There's no set premiere date yet, but rest assured we'll keep you posted. All we know is that Pan Am is due to air on Sunday nights at 10pm, after Desperate Housewives. The workplace drama has been billed as the next Mad Men, and with Christina Ricci starring amidst all the sex and intrigue of Pan Am myth, this could be right.

We especially love the incorporation of New York-JFK's Terminal 3 in the promo cast shot above. Once upon a (far more glamorous) time, Terminal 3 was better known as the "Worldport," Pan Am's UFO-styled HQ in the Big Apple. These days it's used by Delta and scheduled for demolition in the few few years. We're now wondering if the new ABC show will have architecture and retro buffs out at JFK visiting it before its date with destiny.

Video preview! This way...

Pure GOLD

Great news but I'm a bit worried for two reasons: 1. The aviation/airline/travel enthusiast community is a pretty small and judgmental niche. A series that caters to us on a major network might be a risk. 2. In order to appeal to a larger audience they might do things that take away from the authenticity or other bits that draw folks like me out of the cracks. I certainly hope they don't water it down, the preview at least seemed right on par for something that would get me hooked. Thanks so much for the post. I've linked it on twitter as well. Keep up the great work. JLJ/ @User47
