Think conceptually. How many people these days have pleasant experiences
around airports? How many have unpleasant experiences?
Heather Locklear and Blair Underwood aside, how many people really what to
know what happens at airports?
There are plenty of good writers these days in Hollywood looking for work.
The fact that NBC is proposing a show about a subject that is unpleasant for
most people and offers unstellar writing (if that's the case) could be
telling.
Remember "Coupling" from last year? I watched two of the three episodes
that aired. Not a pleasant experience, and overwritten as to be unusable.
It was alleged to be a comedy. With the original brit version, there was no
alleged.

Let's say, diplomatically, "not joy."
I've gotten used to TV shows whose quality (writing and acting)
is on a par with movie productions, or even better at times.
This does not describe LAX, at least its pilot. IMO.
