Take 5: Stewardesses on the air

"Pan Am," which captures the glory days of stewardesses (you know, back before they made you fork over $10 for a bag of peanuts), debuts Sunday at 10 p.m. on ABC. Here are five other shows that have featured stewardesses, or, um, as we call them today, flight attendants.

1. FLYING HIGH (1978-79) -- Short-lived drama about the adventures of three new stewardesses for Sunwest Airlines. They were played by Connie Sellecca, Pat Klous and Kathryn Witt, all of whom were former models with little acting experience.

2. PERFECT STRANGERS (1986-93) -- Jennifer (Melanie Wilson) and Mary Anne (Rebeca Arthur) -- the girlfriends (and future wives) of the show's protagonists, Larry (Mark Linn-Baker) and Balki (Bronson Pinchot) -- worked as flight attendants.

3. SATURDAY NIGHT LIVE (1994) -- In one of the show's more memorable sketches, David Spade and Helen Hunt played hostile flight attendants for Total Bastard Airlines, who wished their departing passengers a snippy "Buh-bye."

4. SWINGTOWN (2008) -- On this 1970s-set series that focused on suburban spouse-swapping, Trina Decker (Lana Parrilla) worked as a stewardess. That is, when she wasn't busy swinging with other women's husbands.

5. FLY GIRLS (2010) -- CW reality show that followed the personal lives of flight attendants for Virgin America Airways, not to be confused with the dancing Fly Girls on "In Living Color."
