LA to Vegas

When I first saw the trailer for this show I knew I had something to look forward to each week. Captain Dave is the pilot my husband wishes he could be. Is it a realistic portrayal of the airline industry? Of course not. But it's close enough to home and that's exactly why it fits the bill. These characters do and say what we wish we could at their workplace in the sky, much like how how Michael and the cast from The Office do and say things that would never fly past HR in real life. Is every joke perfect? No, but enough of them make me belly laugh and turn to high five my husband while we shhhhh each other to pay attention. We've watched and rewatched the episodes to replay our favorite one-liners and while some of the jokes are Sophomoric that is exactly what I was hoping for from Will Ferrell. In a way, Captain Dave is a 2018 version of Captain Ron Burgandy and I couldn't be happier.

Surprisingly, I love that Captain Dave is not the main character. I have found myself enjoying the depth and flaws of Ronnie, the Lead Floght Attendant. I didn't expect the show to make her more than a sky waitress so kudos to the writers. I am also hoping to see a lot more of Bernard (loved him as Todd in Zoolander). His witty quips and impecoble timing are spot on and are probably some of the most true to life conversations I've overheard from my real life airline industry friends. Not to mention that Bernard has some of the best raised eyebrow expressions that speak for themselves.

Hoping this show gets wheels up for many more seasons.

With all the crap that's on the TV these days 'LA to Vegas' is a refreshing change! The characters are entertaining and as someone who flies quite often I can relate to them. The scenarios may be a bit over the top but historically that's what has always made good comedy (was 'Seinfeld' that realistic?). Honestly I can't say there is a better sitcom at the moment, which doesn't mean 'LA to Vegas' is great but compared to its competition it's at the top of the list.

So it isn't a home run right out of the box but as someone has also noted, the first season of 'Seinfeld' was pretty slow. 'LA to Vegas' has potential and has already shown great promise in its cast and scripts. It's balanced and even the over-the-top characters such as Captain Dave are easy to connect with.

I am glad to see three more episodes have already been order (for a total of 15), I hope Fox realizes what a hit they have and supports more seasons. "LA to Vegas' deserves a chance to prove itself!

I only write this because I am so sick of people wanting everything to be a cop procedural or talent contests or something in a hospital. Shows can be just fun. I know I am in the minority here but just STFU and enjoy some mindless humor FFS! Look if you want some nonsense to laugh at for 30 minutes this is a show you will enjoy. If you need everything to be some sort of commentary on society or watching a 12 year old hypnotist make a dog act like a chicken then you probably won't dig this show.

LA to Vegas is about the everyday's life of a pilot & the crew of an airlines company. i can't understand the negative reviews.This series is very funny to watch!i had an enjoyable time watching it,it's relaxing and funny.I think it deserves better ratings,some scenes were really awesome.If you want a good comedy this will be a very good show to watch!

No idea why it has such a low rating.

Original jokes and nice acting.

I love captain Dave, well written and greatly played.
