Black Sails season three UNDERWAY!

[Captain Blood]

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

Oh come on Nicholas. A man of your means... 
It's 70-odd quid a year - for loads of brilliant series like Black Sails, plus all your books and other stuff bought off Amazon, suddenly goes to free postage and guaranteed next-day delivery.
I've saved seventy quid on postage alone in the two years I've had it. All that excellent televisual content is just a wonderful added bonus

(Sorry, I know we're all meant to hate Amazon for their various dubious practices, and I'm no cheerleader for Amazon as a corporation, but I have to say Prime is an excellent deal, and the cornucopia of TV - and to a lesser extent movie - content is simply bloody marvellous compared to the feeble production values of much of the dross on regular telly).

All for the price of a decent meal out. Or a large resin building.

I need to finish Outlander than I'm onto Black Sails S2 and S3 in a straight-ish run

I absolutely love Black Sails. Shame it's not available on Prime in Germany. The last two seasons were great. As Captain Blood describes, the slow tempo does give it a lot of plausibility. I find all these non-action bits to be quite inspirational for gaming too.

I am undecided about 'Outlander'.

I could watch the lead actress all day. (And all night). Not only beautiful, but very, very good. And considering she's Irish, a flawless English accent.

But a few parts felt a bit too near to 'Blackadder does the Jacobite Rebellion' - comic clansmen and some massive clichés...

But...

SPOILER ALERT....


... I found the time travel bits almost irrelevant and slightly irritating. Can't help thinking a full-blooded take on the '45 without the peripheral time-travel weirdness would have been just as good, if not better. Still, the books the series is based on are what they are. I'm told the whole time travel thing is more integral further on in the saga...

I also felt the whole rapey-dungeon storyline stretched over the final two episodes was dealt with in just a bit too much loving and graphic detail. Really not nice.

I'm a huge fan of this Series. Loving the new season. I think the pace is perfect. Just enough action and just enough dialogue to make interesting imho. The previews show what look to be some pretty cool land battles coming up as well.

Sadly for us in Oz Amazon prime is about as useful as a chocolate teapot

Just finished Season 3. The Battle scene at the end was bloody awesome.

Just watched season 3 episode 10 WOW
Full of inspiration a great battle on land and sea

[El Frantico]

Such a great finale! I felt like an hour wasn't long enough, I wanted more

[Gutbukkit]

Fantastic finale! I too wanted more. Great inspiration to give my long dormant pirate project a bit of a nudge. Think I'll work on it again soon.

Same. It might make me paint they 50 or so pirates i have and the two ships

[Dr. Zombie]

I just finished watching. Brilliant!

Now the long wait until next season.

[Captain Blood]

Yes. Brilliant. Loved it all the way through from the start, and this finale to season 3 did not disappoint. Roll on season 4!

Wonderful stuff, the end battle was especially inspiring!
