Just binged this show over the last few weeks. Amazing show!
To be honest I tried watching it a few times, but I couldn't get past the 3rd episode, it just felt very "British" and dry. A buddy of mine recommended I stick with it, he wasn't joking. The reveal about Flint blew my mind, as it all made sense, plus John Silver's speech in the tavern, I think rivals Heisenberg's "Say my name" moment for the most badass pronouncement of one's badassery.
I've always been enamored with pirates and this show has been right up my alley. As long as you can get past the first 6 episodes, it's a great payoff.
