The sun has officially set on Our Flag Means Death.
In January 2024, Max canceled the Taika Waititi and Rhys Darby-led television series Our Flag Means Death after two seasons.
“While Max will not be moving forward with a third season of Our Flag Means Death, we are so proud of the joyous, hilarious, and heartfelt stories that creator David Jenkins, Taika Waititi, Rhys Darby, Garrett Basch, Dan Halsted, Adam Stein, Antoine Douaihy, and the entire superb cast and crew brought to life,” a Max spokesperson said in a statement at the time. “We also thank the dedicated fans who embraced these stories and built a gorgeous, inclusive community surrounding the show.”
Our Flag Means Death creator issues a new statement
On March 7, 2024, Our Flag Means Death creator David Jenkins shared an Instagram post saying the series has now “reached the end of the road” after it was unable to find a different streaming home.
“I can officially confirm that we’ve reached the end of the road,” Jenkins wrote. “At least as far as this sweet show is concerned. After many complimentary meetings, conversations, etc it seems there is no alternate home for our crew. Thank you to all of you who sent us out with tremendous love and care. Your campaign was noticed across the industry. But more importantly it made all of us who worked on this show better able to deal with the loss.
“To you wonderful fans: thank you. You are lovely and earnest. Those kinds of things feel in short supply at times. But they aren’t. A love like ours can’t disappear in an instant. When we see each other off in mystic, say hello. We won’t say goodbye, because we’re not leaving. We’re just taking a breather until next time we can share something together.”
Our Flag Means Death is currently streaming on Max.
