Season finale was a masterpiece.  The battle scenes were so high quality.  Love how they did the origin of Long John Silver the pirate King.  Can't wait til season 4
 
Black Sails to End With Season 4

Black Sails is set to be dry docked after Season 4, Starz announced on Wednesday.

The 10-episode fourth season, premiering in 2017, finds the pirates at war in the West Indies. As such, the shores of New Providence Island have never been bloodier, but the closer civilization comes to defeat, the more desperately — and destructively — it will fight back.

“It’s a rare privilege in television to be given the kind of creative freedom we’ve enjoyed on this show over the last four years,” series co-creator Jonathan E. Steinberg said in a statement. “While it was a difficult decision for us to make this season our last, we simply couldn’t imagine anything beyond it that would make for a better ending to the story nor a more natural handoff to [the story of] Treasure Island.”

Said Starz managing director Carmi Zlotnik: “Jon Steinberg and Robert Levine, along with their crew and the phenomenal cast, have delivered a spectacular take on the most legendary pirate story in literature, and this final season will bring us to the shores of Treasure Island as was always intended…. We could not be more proud of this very special series.”

It seems like this thread had more posts last Season.

Shame, oh well...just finished the rewatch of last Seasons finale, look forward to Long John Silver :smokin
 
My favorite scene was Flint and Billy's power struggle.  Also, they really made eleanor into a master finesser in here, she went from facing a public hanging to being married to Woodes Rogers now in the offseason Governor's wife status. 
 
This weeks ep was so good, show is firing on all cylinders so sad it's the last season

Max really had a fail there her goons she brought were no match for Israel Hand

Israel hand can seriously fight, so far only other pirate we seen that can take on multiple dudes like that was Blackbeard, not even Vane was that strong of a fighter

smh at Billy Bones really commanding his men to fire
 
I totally forgot about this week's episode.

I was binging Goliath over the weekend.

I will watch this one tonight......
 
^Agreed, this season is already better than last season. It's heading towards being the best in the series.
 
Season is dope so far. I did notice that they cut down on the nudity and sex scenes this season. I wonder if that was intentional?
 
Just watched ep 5 and it was a masterpiece

Dam Israel hands smacked Silver twice and told him he didn't give a **** whether he was gonna take Billy's side or flints side but to make a decision, worry ain't a good look on a King in a place where loyalty is in short supply

Once again Israel Hands showed how nice he was with the hands, only Teach and him are that level of a fighter even above Vane

They about to hand Billy to Julius and the Maroons to try to build alliance

Finally we see the Spaniards, Woodes Rogers is now considered a traitor to the Crown with this move he made in Havana

Dam i stopped counting at 8 spanish ships at the end, looked like the end of GoT S6 with Dany's army sailing for Westeros without the dragons in the air

Eleanor scene with Flint was good, finally she brought up Mr. Scott and now realizing she was always being finessed by a man whether her pops, Mr. Scott, Vane, Flint
 
There were 12 Spanish ships at the end not including Woods Rodgers'.

Israel put the hands on everybody, Achilles style.

Rodgers got his alliance, but his battle became to personal.
At this point he doesn't care that he became a traitor to the Crowne, he's doing it for love and love will get you killed. RIP Woods.

Episodes are GOAT, until the next episode ends and becomes GOAT. I've never seen a show that was so ill, and still manage to out ill that GOAT episode in the next Episode, and it does it a lot.

Black Sails is pissing excellence right now.
