The Flight Attendant is a story of how Cassie (Bing Bang Theory ‘S Kaley Cuoco) manages to mess up her already pretty messy lifesaver the space of one ill-judged night.
Less a case of waking up on the wrong side of the bed and more the case of waking up in the wrong hotel and in the bed of a recently dead man.
This darkly comedic thriller is based on the novel of the same name by New York Times bestselling author Chris Bohjalian and pits our somewhat unreliable protagonist in a wild search to find out exactly what happened, while keeping the cops at bay and her drinking problems under control.
With animated intros, a deliberately skewed narrative and split screen edits, all add up to what could easily be dubbed style of substance.
Happily the zippy pacing and a terrific performance from the show’s lead, TFA is a rip-roaring thriller that demands binge-viewing.
The Flight Attendant was shot during the Covid-19 pandemic and was first streamed on HBO Max and SKY+ and is streaming now on Amazon Prime Video.
