Different Network Needs to Pick Up Pan Am

Pan Am was a great series with great potential.

Programming times & programming days are crucial to the success of a new series.

New series are usually broadcast immediately following an already successful/ highly-rated series. The objective is to have the viewers of the successful series stay tuned to continue watching the new series.

Another network needs to purchase this series & place it in a time slot where viewers are already tuned-in.

I think that after close to 3 years, it's a bit late for all that.

The lead actresses are doing other things now. Sets would have to be rebuilt from scratch, etc etc.

Didn't they bring Knight Rider back?
...Charlie's Angels back?
...24 back?
...Dallas back?

With the original cast?

Any new Season of Pan Am without:

Christina Ricci
Kelli Garner
Margot Robbie
Karine Vanasse

would feel so wrong. They at least have to wrap up parts of their storylines before being substituted, and even then at least 3/4th should remain.

- How will Maggie fare as a smuggler with Broyles?
- Is Kate going to actually join the CIA (which could've been the start of a spin-off about the CIA in those years)
- Will Laura lose her job with Pan Am because of the Nudes?
- Is Amanda really pregnant, or is she just doing a last ditch attempt to get her claws into Teddy?
- What about Colette, will she find her brother? Will she remain at the New York Hub, or transfer to Hong Kong?

- Who will Dean fly with after his suspension ends?
- Will Ted get the left seat in those 6 months?
- What ever became of Bridget?
- Will the ex-East German Spy join Pan Am?
- Will the Haitian refugee/stow-away become one of the first Black Stewardesses with Pan Am? (No clue when ŧhey actually had their first, the first absolute African-American Stewardess was Ruth Taylor with Mohawk Air back in 1958)

Would make a great Netflix series.

I was hoping HBO or Showtime would have picked it up and give it a bit more spice!
