Anyone else watching this? I’m always up for a sea epic, and John Malkovich is suitably nefarious as Blackbeard. I like the doctor character too. Pretty high production values as well, impressive for a summer series.
I’m hoping they’ll replay it because I want to watch but right now I’m glued to the Hawks game.
I’ll keep my eye on it. Is it like Black Sails?
Blackbeard without the wild, long hair and braided black beard that gave him his bloody name? Where will he hold his lit fuses. I’m not psycho about my historical accuracy–I watch Sleepy Hollow–but there are some basics that should be followed. It would be better to base the character on someone with a less distinctive look, like the the Dread Pirate Bartholomew Roberts or that admiral of spiced rum, Captain Henry Morgan.
I watched it. It was pretty good. Thank Allah Johnny Depp didn’t make a cameo!
The doctor was a great character. Took awhile for me to recognize him as Annie Walker’s recent love interest from “Covert Affairs.”
