Much to my surly annoyance, Comic-Con has begun today, filling up my various news feeds with geeky crap about elves and sorcerers and spaceships and vampires and Pokemon and… stewardesses? WTF? Why is ABC’s “Pan Am” at Comic-Con?
Sitting there on the trade show floor is a replicated piece of Pan Am fuselage, staffed by politically incorrect stewardesses in little blue hats and even tinier skirts.
At least one attendee, Martin Gonzales, a 34-year-old shipping clerk, was confused. “I don’t get it,” he said, walking past. “Are there zombies inside?” [NYT Arts Beat]
Holy crap, that’s a great idea. Everyone has been calling “Pan Am” an airline industry rip-off of “Mad Men,” but what if it was a rip-off of “Mad Men” AND “The Walking Dead”? That’s two AMC rip-offs for the price of one! TV’s very first period zombie drama! Frankly, I’m surprised that the Hollywood Story Generator hasn’t already come up with “1960s zombies on a plane” by now.

Cockpit.
Id like Christina Ricci to fluff my pillow. By pillow I mean penis.
They are at ComicCon because, just like zombies, vampires and Pokeman, young and cute stewardesses no longer exist.
I, is, have no, is, idea.
Why do you hate tits and ass, Ufford?
I feel the same way about Christina Ricci as I do about Lindsay Lohan. I appreciate them getting skinny, but lament the loss of their glorious, glorious racks.
Yeah, remember when Ricci’s rack was twice as big as that girl on her left? That was awesome. Now they are deflated and tatooed and she just looks like a female version of Edward Furlong.
There are hot chicks to see you nerds and you are questioning this? What the hell is wrong with you people?
Zombie stewardesses that sell meth. Sold.
I’m surprised that the Hollywood Story Generator hasn’t already come up with “1960s zombies on a plane” by now.
I’m not sure if it’s set in the ’60s, but they’ve already barfed out a film called Flight of the Living Dead.
Otto: I’ll thank you not to disparage the classics.
I dare you to read the plot synopsis at that link, LTF.
Here’s the first sentence: “On a routine flight from Los Angeles to Paris, a renegade group of scientists has smuggled aboard a secret container holding a fellow scientist infected with a deadly genetically engineered virus which reanimates the dead.”
A “renegade group of scientists,” you say? Sure, why not.
On the one hand, I HATE being pandered to. On the other hand, I LOVE being pandered to by skinny, big titted stewardesses with tiny hats, broad, condescending smiles and empty, soulless eyes. What to do….what to do…
I don’t know. I guess I’ll pleasure myself to pictures of Christina Ricci until I decide.
Skanks on a Plane.
There are plenty of smart scientists Otto, you have to figure at least SOME will be renegades.
“You know what, I don’t think I’ll be using the 3/4 lens on my biotic synthesizing laser today. Take THAT establishment!”
Laser…secret container holding a fellow scientist infected with a deadly genetically engineered virus which reanimates the dead. Six in one hand…
Come onnnnnnnnnnnnn make it to 103 episodes!
“Why is ‘Pan Am’ at Comic-Con?” Because Comic-Con is the CES of the 2010′s.
@LastTexansFan; if you keep posting all over you’ll never pass the bar. That said, drink up! And Cheers!
I liked Ricci better in the old days when she was always showing up at Hollywood events, in charater, playing “The Creature Who Must Show Her Nipples.”
P.S. Ricci’s forehead is a large target for… ah… tapioca.
Thank you very much.
Also, Kelli Garner is in that show. And Kelli Garner still has enormous tits.
