The Flight Attendant (2020–2022)
6/10
Great take-off, disastrous landing.

Warning: Spoilers
The first season of The Flight Attendant is pretty darn great; it's sophisticated, fun and intriguing, the elements blend together marvelously and Kaley Cuoco jets through the season in first class.

This series really stands out; from the cool spy-inspired editing, fantastic music/soundtrack and a story that leaves you craving for more. Unfortunately, that crave dies very soon into the second season, where that fabulous zing of the first season, turns dry and bitter.

In a effort to fly into a more "mature" territory, the series nose-dives and becomes somewhat difficult to watch, as the fun dial gets completely shut off and the complex-yet lovable/funny Cassie Bowden, is written into this truly dislikable character that really turns you off (not the best move for a leading character). I also have to say that the script is suffering some serious air sickness.

Exploring the many sides of Cassie and her traumas may have seemed like a good idea, but the incessant visits to Cassie's consciousness, flashing in and out every other minute, becomes excessive and downright annoying, if you ask me, this is by far the worst thing from the season and even though it's done in a polished way (CGI and all), rather than becoming a welcome passenger, it becomes some sort of a terrorist, taking you hostage in this terrible flight, piloted by none other, than a Flight Attendant.
