"What begins as a kind of mentorship eventually becomes the gay pirate action-comedy series you never knew you needed." Thanks @wireddotcom.bsky.social for featuring our beloved show #OurFlagMeansDeath on yet another best-of list! www.wired.com/story/hbo-ma...
A screenshot from the Wired.com website, taken on October 31, 2024, showing the entry for Our Flag Means Death from an article titled "The 42 Best Shows on Max (aka HBO Max) Right Now." There is an embedded link to the show's Season 2 trailer on YouTube. The text from the article reads: "Our Flag Means Death. Rhys Darby and Taika Waititi do what Darby and Waititi do best as two very different kinds of pirates who cross paths in the 1700s. Darby plays Stede Bonnet, a fictionalized version of a very real member of the landed gentry, whose version of a midlife crisis led him to abandon his family and hit the high seas for a swashbuckling adventure. Waititi, meanwhile, plays the infamous Blackbeard, who learns of Bonnet and seeks him out. What begins as a kind of mentorship eventually becomes the gay pirate action-comedy series you never knew you needed."

a-ha! Proof that Stede and Ed do find each other in every dimension and every timeline. And that their love can “take on” any challenge—even mediocre photo editing. 😁 #OFMD #OurFlagMeansDeath #CrewForLife

A still screenshot from the 1985 music video for the song “Take On Me” by the Norwegian synth-pop band a-ha, photo-edited to show characters from the TV series Our Flag Means Death replacing a young woman and the band’s lead singer. The video combines live action and pencil-sketched animation in a comic-book style. The character Stede Bonnet (played by Rhys Darby), dressed in an ornate, all-white 18th-century suit, stands on one side of a rectangular frame. On the other side of the frame, with his back turned, facing Stede, is a pencil-sketched figure with the head of the character Ed Teach/Blackbeard (played by Taika Waititi). Ed’s face is turned towards Stede, but he is recognizable by his beard and long hair pinned up at the back of his head.
