mile high club

With this season of Desperate Housewives seeming, well, more desperate than last year, something else had to supplant my brainless Sunday night TV fix. Flying in from the BBC is Mile High, a trifle of a show that's not exactly Shakespeare, but nonetheless enjoyably watchable.
Set at a bargain London-based airline (for you stateside folk, think JetBlue), the show follows the ins-and-outs of the randy flight crew. There's gorgeous Lehann (with a secret baby boy at her mum's house), the not gay Jason (who knew?) and the stewardess who looks like Jewel. There's all pretty promiscuous, and, as we are reminded each episode, low-waged, so it's like a countdown to see which one is going to become a hooker.

[Mile High, BBC America (check local listings)].

It's the two great tastes, that taste great together, airplanes and sex. I had sex on an aero-plane once. But that's a spot for another blog! Sunday night t.v just got interesting again and at a cruising altitude of 37,000 feet. Who knew? Thanks for keeping me informed on luxy things.
