I've been looking forward to Black Sails for months. It was heavily promoted and seemed right up my alley as a swashbuckling costume drama.
So, imagine my chagrin Saturday night when I settled down to watch the first episode only to discover that my cable system had dropped Starz from my package while I wasn't looking.
Arrrgh!
I'm not about to add it back as a pay channel, though. I'm already paying way too much for cable, and I watch Starz infrequently enough that I didn't realize it had disappeared almost a month ago. :-)
So, I guess I'm going to have to wait for Black Sails to show up on Netflix or Amazon.
Are you on Amazon Prime? I watched the first ep for free through the Prime program. I don't know yet if it'll remain free or if it's just that first ep that was (I know they said they were going to make it free online last week in response to something getting leaked). I'm planning on crossing that hurdle next week, lol.
I had the Amazon Prime free trial last month, but decided against it because it didn't seem they had much that I wanted to watch in their free video section. (Though I did get free 2-day shipping on most of my Christmas shopping, so it was a worthwhile experiment.)
I'll have to see whether I can get a season pass on Amazon for Black Sails. That's how I watched The Borgias. :-)
