All this. Good series all together, aside from butt pirates, butt even that wasn't that bad

Would've loved a 5th season

The fact that I read it before this show made this show weird for me to watch. Dropping in Flint, Silver and the other fantasy charachters in the middle of that true story always bothered me. It is a great enough story on its own. That said I still mostly enjoyed the series (especially season 3). The ending was terrible however. Absolutely hated it.

But do be sure to check out the book.

Thanks for that info, I'll be on the lookout

True enough about the fantasy characters, they could've just went with Blackbeard as the main character... but I really did like the actor portraying Flint, he was very believable, as well as Silver to a lesser degree

But yeah, as much as I LOVED season 4... I'll just pretend Flints ending never happened

Pretty damn good series after a pretty HORRIBLE first season which was almost unwatchable. I love how they played with the audience's pre-existing historical knowledge and spun them (just like what Starz did with Spartacus at times), especially with the Rackham/Anne storyline (the only two characters you could really give a shit about).
