Black Sails

poor vane, I don't see things going well for him in Nassau. he's burned too many bridges too many times

Blunt Talk aired on Starz this past year and is great, Patrick Stewart (TNG) stars. Skip Survivor's Remorse, a really boring show about a basketball star and instead watch Ballers on HBO, way funnier and has The Rock. And yeah, if you didn't watch Spartacus now is a great time to do it.

I started watching Spartacus. I heard that first season isn't all that and I agree. Much worse than the first season of Black Sails - which I also didn't think was that great. Over halfway through the first season now. I have a feeling it's about to get a lot better now that his wife is out of the picture.

The first half of the season is a little bit of a slow start, especially the pilot. Once you get past ep 5-6 its all amazing. Very character driven and you definitely need a bit to invest. Still my #1 fav show of all time.

Man that carriage single shot was great last episode

damn

I thought this episode(9) was pretty shitty. no violence, no tits, and tons of Eleanor who i hate.
But it looks like this was just a long setup episode for nonstop badass shit next week.

really wanted tits.

Dude, fucking felt bad for the end of Vane but hopefully blackbeard comes rolling in now to save the day. Preview for finale looks amazing.

Jesus Christ, what a fucking amazing finale.

Bravo, literally applauded the TV. Best damn show on TV.

that was some goddamn metal pirate shit

Great finale. Mad no tits tho

This show has gotten better and better. Amazing finale.

Yeah that was fucking sweet. This show is so good. I wonder many more seasons they can get outta this before it gets out of hand. There can only be so many more threats to Nassau.

Well we're getting into Treasure Island territory by next season.

They've already shown the "black spot" and buried the treasure. All they really need is to establish who Billy Bones is and introduce Jimmy Hawkins and John Silver's parrot and we're in the novel.

Treasure Island (fictional, remember) is ~20 years past these events taking place around 1745, we are nowhere close. The age of piracy is very short really, basically Hornigold / Blackbeard / Vane / Jennings establish Nassau in 1713 and pretty much all pirates involved are dead by 1722. We are in the year 1719 or 1720, the show has moved around a lot of events since quite a few people still in the show died actually before Charles Vane but since it merges a fictional cast (Treasure Island) with RL pirates I don't think anyone cares that much.

But definitely a LOT of treasure island references this season, from Billy Bones writing up the black spot note to the buried treasure stuff to Flint and Silver talking about fear of each other. The buried treasure though is not what they are after in the TI novel, since that was at least 20x more money than what Rackham had.

spoilers for RL pirates

I wish I could draw this is damn good
