We finally know when “Our Flag Means Death” will be back for season two. The Max series, starring Rhys Darby and Taika Waititi as pirates Stede Bonnet and Edward Teach (aka Blackbeard), roped fans in as a comedy stacked with famously funny actors — but it’s the budding romance between the two pirate leads that made them stay. The series grew a huge and devoted following when it premiered in the winter of 2022. Now, in an Aug. 24 article in Vanity Fair, Max has revealed the show will return this October.

The series was originally renewed back in June 2022. David Jenkins, the show’s creator, said in a statement at the time, “We felt the show was special while we were making it, but fans’ open-armed embrace of the inhabitants of the Revenge makes heading into a second season all the more sweet.”

Jenkins told Polygon in March 2022 that he thought season two was likely. “I think [the chances for season two] look good,” he said. “I think we’re so lucky. It’s been so heartening to see how many people are responding to the show. . . . They understood what we were doing, and they were having the same conversations we had. So the fact that that’s happening, I think, is really a good sign, and bodes well for season 2.”

As Jenkins noted, the show enjoys a devoted fan base on social media, with many tweeting about their love for the show and creating fan art. But beyond the intensity with which fans have latched onto the show, Jenkins feels that he has a few seasons’ worth of story to tell. “I feel like we could probably do it in three [seasons],” he told Polygon. “The thing that fascinates me about this story and makes me want to write the show is asking who is Stede to Blackbeard, and who is Blackbeard to Stede. To me, that’s the through-line that cuts across the entire series. And I don’t know that you want to see that go on for five, six seasons.”
