Our Flag Means DeathOur Flag Means Death

From creator David Jenkins and executive producer Taika Waititi comes a unique new comedy (very) loosely based on the true adventures of 18th-century would-be pirate, Stede Bonnet. After trading in the seemingly charmed life of a gentleman for one of a swashbuckling buccaneer, Stede becomes captain of the pirate ship Revenge. Struggling to earn the respect of his potentially mutinous crew, Stede's fortunes change after a fateful run-in with the infamous Captain Blackbeard, history's greatest pirate. Outrageously funny, Our Flag Means Death invites audiences to join Stede and crew as they attempt to get their ship together and survive life on the high seas.more

Pilot

After uprooting his life in search of adventure, aristocrat-turned-pirate-captain Stede Bonnet must go to new lengths to tame the mutinous motley crew of his ship, the Revenge. But when his efforts to impress the boisterous buccaneers lead to a raid on a vessel with ties to his former life, Stede is left to question whether he's tough enough for the high seas.

We Gull Way Back

Meanwhile, Jim returns to Jackie's for more information on the men they seek.
