On this past episode of “Black Sails,” we saw what may be one of the most dramatic (and also harrowing) moments of the show as Vane ended up dying by hanging, the result in part of some manipulation on the part of Eleanor. He was a key part in the series, but we knew at […]
Going into Saturday night’s new episode of “Black Sails,” it was clear that the stage was set for a pretty good showdown. We were expecting based on previews almost one gigantic fight scene after the next, but what we were ultimately left with in the end was something rather different … but something ultimately very […]
As we get closer and closer now to the end of “Black Sails” season 3, it is interesting to see some of the decisions that the producers are making in regards to the series. There are many that we like, but then there are also others that make us wonder how in the world producers […]
After a few weeks of action, including a supremely awesome showdown between Teach and Flint last week, “Black Sails” opted to settle in to a certain extent on this weekend’s all-new episode, and give us a story that was a little bit more about the politics and the character relationships … at least if you […]

You just have to look at the title above for evidence of that! The big news that came through this installment was the reveal that none other than Mr. […]
Last week’s new episode of “Black Sails” was one of the show’s finest examples of pirate culture we have seen yet. There was a struggle at sea, terrible weather, and a food shortage that made it clear that an already-mad Captain Flint could be getting even closer to madness in due time. With tonight’s episode, […]
Was Saturday night’s episode of “Black Sails” the most impressive visually out of any episode the show has done so far? We’d argue so, mostly because it both literally and metaphorically went into the heart of a storm in a way that the series has not before now. The presence of this epic tempest-at-sea was […]
