Come Fly With Me: Season 1 (2010)
Come Fly With Me is the BBC's mockumentary version of A&E's Airline, complete with a perky soundtrack and a cast of characters from all parts of the FlyLo airline team. What's key to remember is that most roles are filled by two men; their makeup is impeccable as they play catty female ticket-counter attendants, giddy Japanese schoolgirls, a husband-wife pilot team, and all manner of loopy airline customers. Of course everyone is deluded or incompetent (or both); the dry British humor is sublime. It remains a Save title but is available on streaming. Enjoy! 4.5 stars.
