I got through our flag means death in a day. It is a truly brilliant show with an amazing cast, really loveable characters, genuine diversity (both among the cast itself but also in the crew and amongst the writers.) I can see a fair few people saying they "didn't find it funny" and "got bored" and obviously all of this stuff is subjective but, for me, both of those statements couldn't be further from the truth. I laughed, I cried, and, when I reached the end, I underwent the seven stages of grief over the uncertainty of a second season. And I haven't stopped thinking about it since.
I'm not a massive television person myself, and I only ever really watch TV if I think there's something special there, and I'm so glad I bothered with this one. There is something about it that is truly so loveable - I think it's because of the amount of love that you can tell went into it? It feels like it was made with the best of intentions, and created by people who truly thought it would do good things - and it has.
Shows like this are so important. Shows like this would have changed my life when I was little. I'm so glad that media like Our Flag Means Death exists. Because it will change lives, even in little, almost unnoticeable ways.
I couldn't recommend it more - truly.
