I don't know what the F.There's probably a better thread to post this, but I can't find it. Mods please move if there's a better place.
The wife and I are rewatching Black Sails. It was originally on Starz. We caught it when in came out in 2014, but we're at an age now that we can watch a show 10 years later and it's almost like seeing it for the first time.
The show is a dark prequel to the book "Treasure Island." The main character is Captain Flint for whom Silver's parrot is named in "Treasure Island." We also meet Silver before he became Long John Silver, and Billy Bones. By the end of the series we learn the origin of the treasure in "Treasure Island."
Good writing, great acting, and fantastic sets. It's certainly worth a watch if you haven't seen it.
The opening music is by Bear McCreary and played on a Hurdy Gurdy which gives it a distinctive sound.

John Ringo wrote a series where, when the Vice President was rescued, the first thing she did was order a halt to killing the "sick people" and the prosecution of anyone who did kill them. The VP was a character like a certain VP under the potatoe administration.
Poor frog...I did not know that James Earl Jones was ever in a hard rock band.
Me too, but I have inklings that I've seen it B4 and can't decide if I liked it or not..There's probably a better thread to post this, but I can't find it. Mods please move if there's a better place.
