Come Fly With Me

                This short lived BBC comedy takes what reality shows like “Airline” are about and takes them to that next level.    Only six episodes in length (sadly) I was uncertain what to expect going into this, but after seeing it I now only want to watch it again to look for things I might have missed the first time around.

                The comedy in this show is best described as the “one step above what you’d expect”.   Essentially, they have a skit like where they ask a guy about his luggage, if he packed it himself, if there’s anything flammable in it, if he’s carrying anything for anyone else, etc., and when he seemingly answers all of the questions wrong he still gets to go ahead and board the plane.


                The majority of these characters are also portrayed by the same two actors, which just makes it that much better.  (Those Brits love to dress in drag)  As I re-watch these episodes, pretending that they have more than just one Series of six, I will most likely adding more insights and thoughts, but for now, just do yourself the favor of viewing this wonderful series.
