i’m SO happy rhys is FINALLY getting the recognition he deserves. he is such an incredibly talented guy. i knew these two had great chemistry before the show, but their romantic chemistry was such a wonderful surprise that i was not expecting at all
I cried so much at the representation in this show. I didn't realize how much queerbaiting had hurt me over the years so experiencing this heartfelt story was just everything. Can't thank Rhys, Taika and everyone included enough ❤
IKR when (spoilers) they’ve kissed, i actually paused, jumped up and started pacing around like OH MY GOD IT’S ACTUALLY GAY!!! I THOUGHT IT WOULD BE QUEERBAITING AS USUAL BUT IT’S ACTUALLY REAL!! THEY ACTUALLY DID IT!!!! at my partner like,,,, imagine getting this excited over a kiss between two people. jfc.
This show left me laughing and crying more than any other show has, which was NOT what I expected at all from a “dark pirate comedy” when it first started. PLEASE give us season 2!
This show made me laugh and cry. It's so funny, heartfelt, and occasionally heartbreaking. The LGBTQ and BIPOC representation was awesome. The joy I feel at Stede and Ed being canon is unparalleled. Thank you for not queerbaiting us. Our Flag Means Death is my favorite comedy in years. I hope it wins all the Emmy awards. I need season 2 now!
Their chemistry is mindblowing! How could you cancel this gem of a show!?? Shame on you, really. I hope another streamer picks it up to conclude their story.
Watching their interviews makes me appreciate the improvised banter and eccentricities of their characters on the show and how naturally they embody their characters... I watched a different interview where they discussed that that basically was the idea, they didn't want them to put on big piratey accents and stuff but just wanted to let them be themselves as the characters which I think is great and makes them so real
This is hands down the best show I have seen in decades. I laughed, I cried... oh boy did I cry. This is the kind of show I wish was around when I was a young man figuring things out. Truly amazing work.
The first one cracks me up, tons of pirates wore eye patches. Had nothing to do with having one eye, old ships were really dark below deck. And they didn’t want candles burning in their wooden ship. So they wore an eye patch on one eye to preserve their night vision in at least one eye. You could go below deck and still see. Was especially useful when attacking other ships.
This couple is so beautiful. Their love story is so precious and heart breaking. I just want them to be happy. After so many boring couples in uncreative shows getting a happy end, I just want one for a great show with characters I love. Just once.
Please renew for a second season!! This show is the best thing I’ve seen in years, the cast and crew have created something incredible! Please don’t let this one die
I love this show so much!! I was ify at first because I didn't want to invest in another comedy,but after getting to know each character and how they interact with each other is is so perfect, and hilarious. I'll be sad when the season is over, but I pray the creator will get his season two.
I love this show. It started out as a silly funny strange eccentric folly. By the end I was so enamored with Blackbeard and Steed that I could not stand the thought of no second season. Please bring back more. Everyone is wonderful in this show.
The bromance between Taika and Rhys is funny and cute. But the romance between Blackbeard and Stede is beautiful and legendary and we need more of it! Please HBO #RenewOurFlagMeansDeath
Wasn't the eyepatch thing about making one eye more light sensitive for underdeck use, as opposed to being about missing one eye? I suppose that might be a myth as well, or a hypothesis.
Awesome video. A bit of eye patch trivia: they actually *were* commonly worn in the course of working on a ship, but not to cover lost eyes. You wore it on deck over one eye, and switched it to the other eye when you went below deck so you didn't have to wait for your eyes to adjust to adjust to the darkness. Lighting was generally very poor below deck, with only a few oil lanterns to provide a little illumination. The eyepatch trick saved time and prevented accidents.
HBO has really done this show DIRTY. Absolutely NO promotion. Had no clue it even existed until Twitter went crazy near the end. And i have HBO MAX and I’m on there fairly frequently. But all i ever saw them push was that Victorian New York version of downton abbey. And now they’re refusing to renew it for a 2nd season?? After they left it on a major cliffhanger? They wouldn’t have done such things were it straight & everyone knows it. 🙄
Some pirates actually wore eyepatches, but not because they had gotten injured. If one eye is covered with a patch, that eye will not be acclimated to the brightness on deck, so when they get bellow deck (for example during a raid) they could really quickly be able to see by just removing the eye patch, giving them an advantage when looting and fighting. Cool right c-:
I was wondering why Rhys’ hair was so messy but apparently this was filmed just after filming so he still has his stede hair but no one to help him style it now lol
Great conversation. I adored JoJo Rabbit. Taika’s bold take on Hitler as a ‘goofball sidekick’ was surprisingly hilarious. Fantastic end scene and credits with David Bowie singing Heroes in German which he actually wrote in Berlin. I watched it on HBO 😂
love them, the second season finished well so I'm happy. Our flags means death recovered me from the end of the second season of Good Omens. God knows how much I cried. (And we want to talk about the mc donald's publicitary spot with the song "Everyday"? Incredible)
The hypothetical restaurant scene was 100% just these two rifting
Oh they confirmed it, too, in a separate interview! To no one’s surprise, of course. 🤣

Their romantic chemistry is off the chart, but seeing this here I should not be surprised. They are so comfortable together.
These two have such a natural chemistry, on and off screen. It's hilarious! I love it.
They're morr than 10 Years old friends, that explains why Guess. I first discovered them both in What we do in the shadows, fantastic movie.
Please HBOMax, give us a second season! This show is brilliant.
Good news!! We're getting season two!!

Season 3???

Fingers crossed Good Omens is next 🤞🏻
Jim and Oluwande. Black Pete and Lucius. There's, like, a ton of representation ✊️.
I am HOPING the success of this show gets the point across this kind of representation is not only great story material, it's profitable.
I’m right there with you!

Lmao they really just bounce off each other so well. Really adds to the chemistry of the characters, I think.
This definitely proves how many great lines were improvised. This whole video sounds like the restaurant debate when they’re eating the snake.
This show left me laughing and crying more than any other show has, which was NOT what I expected at all from a “dark pirate comedy” when it first started. PLEASE give us season 2!
Oh so it's not Stede and Ed that love to be insane together, it's Taika and Rhys. Amazing.
Rhys Darby is absolutely brilliant in everything he does.
I can’t believe these two dorks have given us the best TV romance in years. Love them

They are so effortlessly funny and have such great chemistry. Always makes me happy to see them work together.
This show gave us something so fresh and new, beautiful relationships, great comedy. It's the whole package! Please give us season 2!
I cried during the finale it was an emotional roller coaster
Their chemistry is mindblowing! How could you cancel this gem of a show!?? Shame on you, really. I hope another streamer picks it up to conclude their story.
This show means much to so many! Renew Our Flag Means Death for season 3! #ofmd #renewourflagmeansdeath #renewasacrew
I love Rhys Darby, he's so talented and an old friend of Taika Waititi(and Jemaine Clement). and remember, he's a werewolf, not swearwolf😂

Agreed 😭😭😭

I didn't realise until now they're just playing themselves in the show

i love the chemistry these two have in the show and outside of it. you can tell they can riff off each other so well, and its great to see it 🥰🥰
Yeah and they have been in many more movies together
Its so clear when something is not queerbating when you see it with your own eyes.
Refreshing af
this interaction has shown me that the scene with blackbeard and stede talking about their restaurant/gift shop was just improv
Shiver me Timbers !!! These Ship Mates are just pure LEGENDS !!!
Yep
I love this show so much!! I was ify at first because I didn't want to invest in another comedy,but after getting to know each character and how they interact with each other is is so perfect, and hilarious. I'll be sad when the season is over, but I pray the creator will get his season two.
LOVE their dynamic on-and-off screen
Loved them since 2015
taika and rhys' sense of humor is just absolutely outstanding
I want the un-edited version of these two just riffing off each other for god knows how long
I love this show. It started out as a silly funny strange eccentric folly. By the end I was so enamored with Blackbeard and Steed that I could not stand the thought of no second season. Please bring back more. Everyone is wonderful in this show.
I think it really helps for the relationship between their characters that they've been friends for years 😊
This show was EVERYTHING please HBO please give us season 2
Ok, NOW I understand why Stede and Blackbeard dynamic is so good on screen
The bromance between Taika and Rhys is funny and cute. But the romance between Blackbeard and Stede is beautiful and legendary and we need more of it! Please HBO #RenewOurFlagMeansDeath

Loved it loved it loved it! I watched the show bc of Taika but left with love for Rhysie
This show has my heart. Thank you so much for it
both of them saying Captain Haddock just made me love them more - Tintin was such an important part of my childhood
this interview banter sounds exactly like that improvised restaurant scene in the seventh episode lmfao
GIVE US A SECOND SEASON HBO /demand but seriously. This show holds a very special place in my heart and is currently all I can think about. Please.
Obsessed with Rhys‘ 70s look here
golden duo. praying we get season 2!
Their chemistry is so spectacular
I cried so many times for every type of reason. Mostly from laughter but also from recognition
love their dynamic, adore this show so much for what it represents
Please renew this show for a third season!
if we don't get a season two i'm going to commit a crime, don't know what crime yet i guess it'll be a surprise
may i join?
Piracy is a crime?
I love this show so much. One of the best shows in recent history. So perfectly funny, so engaging, and so many likable characters.
Taika's personality is like an insane and out of his mind yet so enjoyable character, love his vibe since always
We NEED the bloopers!! Please please HBO
Please make so many seasons.
WORDS CAN'T EXPRESS HOW MUCH I LOVE THIS SHOW
I have rewatched this season three times now I love them and this show y'all
I absolutely LOVED this series and cannot wait for Season 2. I hope HBO renews it.
very very excited for season 2 already! such an incredible show
This show is a blessing. I hope this show gets another season, it's fantastic.
This show was absolutely perfect. Please give us a season 2!!!
Just got this recommended and I’m so sad that we couldn’t just get the third season… I’ll really miss Stede and Ed
I just read a OFMD fanfiction based on these conversations! I didn't know it was real interview! This is adorable
Gotta love how Blackbeard’s wardrobe is a perfect riff on Max from THE ROAD WARRIOR
This is honestly one of the best shows I have ever watched. Super excited for the next season! 💖
absolutely loved this show there NEEDS to be a season 2!!!
WE'RE BEGGING YOU, A SEASON 2
