I watched the whole season in one day. Didn't even know about it until i saw a thread on Twitter talking about the finale. Can't believe there wasn't a lot more publicity for the show. It's a gem. Can't wait for season 2.
Isn't this the first time Rhys Darby is a lead in a show. If so. Good on him. He has been some of the funniest supporting characters in a lot of stuff over the year. Much deserved.
@@HowdyDuty4 Technically. You could say that doesn't count. As its a sketch show. And by the looks of the clip's i've seen. Mybe thats for the best. lol
Opinions are so interesting, I respect them immensely for I don't ever consider mine superior ever... being I love some popular hated films, and I hate some popular successful praised films. That being said as someone who loves this era, and pirates, and Taika Waititi, I just wouldn't be able to watch 2 minutes of this, could barely get through the trailer, just not my cup of tea. Glad you like it though.
thank you internet historian for introducing us to ordinary things and getting this story the eyes that needed to see it. the best comedy is based on truth.
I think this concept might be based on Stede Bonnet, a wealthy landowner in Barbados who turned to pirating in 1717 because of an unhappy marriage. He turned out to be surprisingly successful at it.
He wasn't successful, knew nothing about sailing, his crew thought him an idiot and Blackbeard took over his ship and stole it. He eventually died on a fools errand trying to find him for revenge.
@@beeseees1662 35 so just "cheugy" LOL, not a boomer :P Just a big fan of Taika Waititi. The guy behind Thor Ragnorok/ Love and Thunder and making a new Star Wars movie... Are those all for Boomers now?
Fun Fact: if you want to see a more historically accurate version of events very close to this there is a video called The Gentleman Pirate Sundance rejects that goes into the real life inspiration for this show
Also fun fact Blackbeard wasn’t Indian 🤷♂️, I wonder how it would go over if white actor played Nelson Mandela in a movie? Just some food for thought 💭….
Okay, so it is pretty gay? Someone was joking about how Tom Scott saying "gay pirate assassin's" was a prediction for this, but I was surprised by how not straight the trailer seemed lol. I've also seen Internet Historian's short documentary about this guy, so I'm pretty excited to watch this now.
Why do I have a feeling after this trailer, that they came on set of Pirates of the Caribbean when the crew was on a break and they just started filming without their knowledge
@@derek96720 Does he have to? Is a career defined by making serious movies? He does what he likes, people love his work and they enjoy themselves. Whether you personally see it as irreverent or not is of little value. Why are you taking the time to be toxic on a video of his latest work if you don't like him? XD
@@marc-andremenard8918 Why are you taking the time to make disagreeable comments even though it's clear my mind is already made up? Whether you agree with me or not is of little value. Congrats, you've joined the rat race of futilely-expressed opinions.
what if the internet historian hasn't uploaded anything in 364 days, because he's in some sort of legal dispute with HBO max, and therefore has to make sure, that he does not create any revenue with his main channel or something?
I was trying to think why the voice of the guy that says “that was your warning” pissed me off so bad. I had to look him up. He’s from Chernobyl no wonder he instantly made me mad.
Can I just say that as a Civil War reenactor, I WISH I could grow a beard like Waititi's at 0:56! I can get the goatee in just fine, but I've tried to get a full beard several times but the cheeks just grow crab-grass 🤣 I mean, ALL reenactors ought to look like Grizzly Adams, right? [I should also point out that in the same scene Waititi looks like he plays bass for a Judas Priest cover band, but never mind....]
Taika Watiti is a comedy genius, but "Black Beard" is supposed to be scary, Taika Watiti is like the opposite of that, he even made imaginary Hitler look like an allmost ok guy.
So fun Fact there was a pirate who came from nobility but wanted to raid and plunder because he didn't like his wife..... black bear was kinda friend .
I watched the whole season in one day. Didn't even know about it until i saw a thread on Twitter talking about the finale. Can't believe there wasn't a lot more publicity for the show. It's a gem. Can't wait for season 2.
True It looks like gold, it looks amazing!
Finally, a show where Rhys is under the spotlight, he deserves this, and its about pirates, everyone loves pirates!
Pirates..... and jetpacks?
@JoeNietzsche Perfect comment!
@@punchforpound2808 I hope you feel better soon, mate. From that rant you sound terribly upset about something in your life. Best wishes to you.

Nah not the first show as lead, but we can pretend the first one didn't happen
@@HowdyDuty4 Ahh really. What was the first show he was the lead in ? I'm curious now
@@matthewsmith2298 it was a sketch comedy show called Short Poppies
@@HowdyDuty4 Technically. You could say that doesn't count. As its a sketch show. And by the looks of the clip's i've seen. Mybe thats for the best. lol
@@HowdyDuty4 I watched small clip of that. And, Yes let's not talk about it.
I love humor like this. It’s a borderline between dad jokes and cheesy commentary (my weakness lol). I’ll be watching this one 😂

It's like Monty Python on the high seas.
RIGHT?! Its the humor that i love!
What’s are some dad jokes since I am a dad???
It seems to be a ripoff of Pirates of the Caribbean, without J Depp!
how does Taika find the time to do all the things he's doing lol. Seems like he's on so many projects at the same time
Maybe he's not just one man. Oh God, he's the Phantom, the actor director who walks.
Its called, Cocaine.
Because you don't hear about a project until it's done.
I was asking myself the same question
Feels like there's 3 of him... although this does looked like it was filmed in a week.
Thank you Taika Watiti, you gave me faith in comedy shows and movies again.
thank you internet historian for introducing us to ordinary things and getting this story the eyes that needed to see it.
the best comedy is based on truth.
Omg internet historian is so hot right now

@@AllaMortify He was more like Blackbeard's apprentice
@@AllaMortify Well, he got onto a ship. For a landowner this is relatively successful, isn't it?
@@deadNightwatchman He bought it, paid for it to be outfitted and then paid the crew a salary. Charles Johnson's account is worth a read.
My first thoughts too. Taking the comedy angel with his story. Looks good, will be watching.
this looks EXACTLY like my kinda show! It'll be my summer substitute for What We Do In The Shadows haha!!
I take it you're a boomer
@@beeseees1662 35 so just "cheugy" LOL, not a boomer :P
Just a big fan of Taika Waititi. The guy behind Thor Ragnorok/ Love and Thunder and making a new Star Wars movie... Are those all for Boomers now?
@@beeseees1662 What is even your reasoning for saying that lol
Yes me to and Taika Waititi as well just the iceing on the cake very funny and a amazing director will most differently want to see this
Finally, something that seems original and worth watching.
Fun Fact: Blackbeard actually heavily encouraged his crew to be literate.
Fun Fact: if you want to see a more historically accurate version of events very close to this there is a video called The Gentleman Pirate Sundance rejects that goes into the real life inspiration for this show
fun fact, stede begged for his life. it didnt work out
Also fun fact Blackbeard wasn’t Indian 🤷♂️, I wonder how it would go over if white actor played Nelson Mandela in a movie? Just some food for thought 💭….
@@chrisbrunette9495 are you kidding? lets not even get started about you guys thieving. there isnt enough room on the screen.
@@chrisbrunette9495 wow, good job Taika Waititi isn't indian then isn't it.
i love looking back at the trailer and realize this is the perfect straightbating trailer :D
I was straightbaited in. And then I found myself saying "awww" when "Stede makes me happy". Patiently waiting for season 2.
Okay, so it is pretty gay? Someone was joking about how Tom Scott saying "gay pirate assassin's" was a prediction for this, but I was surprised by how not straight the trailer seemed lol.
I've also seen Internet Historian's short documentary about this guy, so I'm pretty excited to watch this now.
@@DaimyoD0 yep, it is.
My inner historian is annoyed by Blackbeard (a Bristolian) sounding Kiwi xD, but my outer Taika Watiti fandom is psyched to see him as Blackbeard
YOOOOOOO!!.... A Film about Stede Bonnet?? Never did I see this happening ever & I'm glad Taika's the one doing it!
I love Taika Waititi, hes got such a funny but morbid sense of humor
Why do I have a feeling after this trailer, that they came on set of Pirates of the Caribbean when the crew was on a break and they just started filming without their knowledge
I miss the time when they weren't divorced 😭
Internet Historian Deserves a Royalty Payment for this one!
This show is so fantastic! It's funny, and touching, and odd in all the best ways. I watched this show in one sitting and now I am ruined. 🤓
Anything by Taika has to be good
The Flight Of The Conchords crew does it again. This movie looks great.
It’s a show outta nowhere that nobody asked for…watch it kill when it’s released.
He does it again ladies and gentleman! Thank you Taika!
You had me at Taika Waititi
is there anything Taika Waititi can't do?! This looks awesome
Make a serious movie apparently. If there's one word that sums up just about everything he touches, it's "irreverent."
@@derek96720 Does he have to? Is a career defined by making serious movies? He does what he likes, people love his work and they enjoy themselves.

@@derek96720 Well, aren't you delightful. I guess you hate comedy.
You had me at Rhys Darby
After Jumanji the NPC finally found freedom in becoming a pirate
I like how fred armisen is just there at the end out of no where lol. he and taika seem to be good friends
Friends, yes
Waititi, Darby, Joel Fry. I’m sold already!
i was already sold on this, and then i saw Fred Armisen. i am over 100% going to watch
What We Do In The Oceans
SNL with Taika, this is going to be a blast.
what if the internet historian hasn't uploaded anything in 364 days, because he's in some sort of legal dispute with HBO max, and therefore has to make sure, that he does not create any revenue with his main channel or something?
Seems very Neil Gaiman-ish
Glad Rhys gets a series! Now Brett and Jemaine!
OMG didn't know I needed this in my life till now! 🖤☠
Taika actually looks like a perfect Black Beard
Not what i expected. Now I want an authentic action movie about Black Beard.
You're aware that there's not much known about him, right?
Someone just brought up that Taika Waititi's outfit is Mad Max's Road Warrior outfit. He is such a fanboy.
Stede Bonnet is the name of our main character, since they fail to mention it lol
If ur a fan of what do we do in shadows this will be a no miss
Rhys Darby is awesome
I was trying to think why the voice of the guy that says “that was your warning” pissed me off so bad. I had to look him up. He’s from Chernobyl no wonder he instantly made me mad.
Thank you!! That was bothering me too
“What We Do In The Ship”
that one snl guy holding the tapas, is like , so this is were my carer has gone too :(
I demand a Guybrush Threepwood series.
THIS
Underrated comment
You fight like a cow!
Imagine a movie with Jonny Depp and Taika Waiting 🤤
It'd be boring if he was just waiting there the whole time.
auto correct has let you down
Anything Taika, I'm watching it
i am going to be here for this.... all of this.
INTERNET HISTORIAN HOW DID YOU MAKE THIS HAPPEN
Is this about that internet historian video about steed? I’m getting mad similarities haha
Cannot fucking wait for this. Any love child of Pirates of the Caribbean X Taika Waititi is bound to be a slam dunk.
Can I just say that as a Civil War reenactor, I WISH I could grow a beard like Waititi's at 0:56! I can get the goatee in just fine, but I've tried to get a full beard several times but the cheeks just grow crab-grass 🤣 I mean, ALL reenactors ought to look like Grizzly Adams, right?
[I should also point out that in the same scene Waititi looks like he plays bass for a Judas Priest cover band, but never mind....]
This series looks like fun, but the orchestration of "Crazy On You" by Heart is what hooked me!
If Summit1g pops out from behind the Captains Chair in the last episode then they deserve an Emmy.
I think Taika Waititi's specialty is historical humor.
I will watch because of Taika-
I’ll take more Rhys Darby any day. Best high pitch voice in the game along with Charlie Day
Rhys Darby
@@Lucalikesstuff my bad I didnt notice it got corrected
I fought Rhys Darby was the guy from deadwood who got smallpox then became a priest, that actor always had babyface
Internet Historian, the Movie!
What the absolute fuck?
How violent do you expect this to get?
YES.
How about distributing it on a platform in the UK?
@0:47 is that the damn black pearl ? :D
OMG that was Mlepnos at the end!
HEART in a modern soundtrack? LOVE IT!
Taika is a Master of comedy! I can't wait for another season of Rez Dogs and What We Do.
Best cast
🙏
Owww, how cute! I know what I"ll be watching on a rainy day, even if I'm on a flood plane.
Pilot episode was just great. A real treat. $0.02
You sold me at Taika Waititi.
I ship them already
Internet Historian is fuming right now
He (Blackbeard) looks so pleased to be meeting a fan
Rhys Darby in this movie..yeayyy
Nigel from jumanji😁
Taika Watiti with Thousand ideas
That's it...I'm calling a band meeting....alright, Blackbeard?
Blackbeard: Present
Taika Watiti is a comedy genius, but "Black Beard" is supposed to be scary, Taika Watiti is like the opposite of that, he even made imaginary Hitler look like an allmost ok guy.
I question if HBO will get their money back in returns with the cost of Heart's iconic, "Crazy on You" and the set pieces? I doubt it will break-even.
Taika had to be in it as Blackbeard! This is going to be a riot!
I wish it was Black Sail🏴☠️😔
this looks like it will be great
Mlepclaynos has become a pirate!
2:10 Mlep(clay)nos the pirate! Awesome!
Murray!!!!!!
THE SHARK FIGHTER!!!!
Yes Please!
Is that Mr. Rent at the ending?
How cool is it that Snead Bonnet was in Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag? He was one of my favorite characters in that game.
Love Taika Waititi :)
omg this looks so funny I literally can't wait to see this!!! 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Stede Bonnet...just remembering the Assassin's Creed IV Black Flag...
This is awesome
«Yeah, I know about tapas» :'D
I'll tell my children this is History
feels kinda like The Northmen show, love it!
I know Taika has watched one piece, I really hope he does a Zehaha at one moment.
2 crazy kiwis....this is gonna be fun
So fun Fact there was a pirate who came from nobility but wanted to raid and plunder because he didn't like his wife..... black bear was kinda friend .
This looks really farcical, cheesy, and stupid but damn funny. I'm in! The Flight of the Conchords flies again!!! Did someone say.... Jumanji?!?
This feels strangely similar to Sundance rejects story of Stede Bonnet with the Internet Historian....
I thought the same, seems like somebody watched Internet Historian's take on stede!!
This looks like it would be hilarious! I'm in!
