The Flight Attendant, a new HBO Max miniseries, specializes in cliffhangers. Kaley Cuoco stars as Cassie, a hard-partying flight attendant who wakes up next to a dead body—and no idea how she ended up drenched in his blood.


On November 18, the show's first three episodes premiered on HBO Max. Introducing potential assassins and shady international crime syndicates, The Flight Attendant left us hungry for more. Luckily, we won't have to wait long for answers: The show's eighth and final episode will air on Thursday, December 17.

One of the new offerings from HBO Max, The Flight Attendant's episode release follows a specific cadence. Like HBO's suspense thriller The Undoing, episodes are released weekly—making The Flight Attendant must-see pandemic viewing.

Here's how, and where, to watch The Flight Attendant. You won't want to miss a single reveal—unless, of course, you mine the book for spoilers.
