I took this route a couple of years ago when it was run on a 763, and remember having very similar types of service the OP describes (though, of course I was in coach) -- but the flight was like $400 roundtrip, whereas getting to Paris from middle america is 1400+, so I was like, cool beans, whatever. AA should put the most meh flight attendant crews on the cheapest flights, save the good ones for those routes always charging a premium....
