Nice show. Good humor. I hope there is a season 2.

I usually never rate a show until iv completely finished it, but I watched enough and definitely won't finish it. The production is great, but the casting, story, jokes, and everything in between falls flat on its face several times. I don't hate it, but I don't like it. It feels stupid, unfortunately, because I really like Apple TV. This just feels lost, like the actors just go with whatever happens next. Not really worth a weekly release, but I'm sure this fits some peoples vibe completely.

It has a banger intro theme but the humor mostly isn't for me. I still enjoyed it tho and actually want to watch a potential second season

Just like Dark Winds must live in the shadow of the far superior Reservation Dogs, Taika Waititi has ruined another show for me. This show would be much more enjoyable if it was released in a universe that Our Flag Means Death never was.

Quite rousing, proper humor! Such a fun, witting, adventurous, and silly show. Don’t judge a book by its cover!

Harmless silly fun! Quite enjoyed it so far and look forwards to more.

Everything I've seen advertised about this makes it look like it's trying to be Our Flag Means Death 2.0 and that show really did have its own very unique thing going on that can't be replicated.

Well, I wanted to like this. I like Noel Fielding's whimsy, but I was worried it was possibly going to be like Our Flag Means Death and...

Well, it is... if you misunderstand what the heart of OFMD is and so rip out that queerness and replace it with Noel Fielding's whimsy...

Turns out that whimsy itself does not work well at the heart of a show - it needs something else to play off against and here... there isn't.

Worse, the bits of queer whimsy come off as homophobic - as the butt of the joke.
