Looks absolutely lovely.

[gamer Mac]

Looks to be getting even better, bigger budget?
What channel will it run on?

[Mad Doc Morris]

Indeed, a series to look forward to. Just love the atmosphere and, yes, all the talky bits.

Also got to show that I'm not fixated on 'historical accuracy' if there's a decent and somewhat original take on it. Well, they even included period discourses of liberty and constitution.

I love it. Looking forward to it

And it's started! Yarrrrrr!

It's interesting... Unlike regular TV, where you get weeks of build-up announcing and previewing new series, one of the things with the streaming services (well, Amazon Prime anyway, I don't take Netflix) is that because there is no downtime between programmes, there are no promos. So wonderful new things suddenly appear, largely unheralded.
Last week, I was surprised and delighted to find a new season of Ripper Street underway, and this week, season 3 of the brilliant Black Sails.

Episode one was as good as ever. Great to have it back.

I know some people find it a bit slow, but for me, it's a perfect evocation of the pirate genre. The action, when it comes, tends to be brief, bloody and utterly brutal. The rest of the time it's politics, personality, sex, and machinations of power and commerce - all linked together. I love it. Above all, the visuals and production design is just stunning. Episode 1's shots of ships were utterly believable and wonderful. I don't know whether it's CGI, or models, or real ships - but they look blinking marvellous. If you're into pirates as a fictional / wargaming genre, I can't see how you can fail to be captivated by Black Sails.

I watched the first episode of season 3 yesterday. And I must say I cannot wait for the next episode.

Without spoilering it to much. (BUT BE WARNED)


It is interesting how Flint and Vane seem to be swapping roles as to who is the unhinged psycho and who is the dependable champion af the greater good.

[Malamute]

Love it, but will have to wait for the DVD as I don't have Amazon Prime. Grrr!

[Keith]

Brilliant! Super-happy this has started again. Can't believe it's been a year already.

[Ray Earle]

Love it, but will have to wait for the DVD as I don't have Amazon Prime. Grrr!

Me too.. 

[Damas]

Not crossed my radar before but that trailer does look good.  I might have to catch up on 1 & 2 at some point.
