- Quotes
Captain Flint: I have one regret. I regret ever coming to this place with the assumption that a reconciliation could be found. That reason, could be a bridge between us. Everyone is a monster to someone. Since you are so convinced that I am yours, I will be it.
Captain Flint: People can say what they like about you, but you're a good man. More people should say that. And someone should be willing to defend it.

Featured review
Legendary, amazing and overall enjoyable.
After seeing countless series in all kinds of categories you could say I'm rather picky about choosing something as my favorite. As much as I love and adore Game of Thrones or BB, Black Sails for me is the best TV-series to have aired in the past five years or so, and perhaps of all time. The story is that of Treasure Island and it's infamous Captain Flint and Long John Silver, with the promise of gold and debauchery. However, Black Sails goes deeper into that. It shows us the state and dealings of Nassau and its crews and inhabitants while also familiarizing us in a subtle way with a few characters that are deemed important. In the same manner as Game of Thrones does, Black Sails does not focus on one main protagonist as much, but several key players that all have their own point of view. Pirates are very easily extremely gimmicky but this sticks to historical accuracy with very small Easter eggs and jokes still in there. I'll admit that season 1 is rather slow paced, as it is sketching you a map of what is going on and who are who. Season 2 will without doubt blow your mind if you have watched season 1, as it contradicts some serious issues you thought were different. This show redefines plot twists and it's season endings are more then satisfying. The graphic department also did a great job (Michael Bay was in charge of the season 2 finale, and he did an amazing job on that).
All with all, it's an outstanding series and extremely fun to watch. Ladies that are scared that this show is meant for men should notice that like that time period it may look that way, but keep watching and you'll notice there is enough to contradict that.
