Netflix's latest show is ‘Game of Thrones’ with pirates — and it's perfect for binge-watching

(L-R) Tom Hopper as William Manderly, Toby Stephens as Captain Flint, Mark Ryan as Hal Gates and Luke Arnold as Long John Silver in Black Sails now streaming Netflix.

The debut of “Game of Thrones” in 2011 changed the television landscape, and in the wake of HBO’s epic fantasy series, a whole load of imitators appeared hoping to strike gold of their own. Many of these were highly forgettable, but one that left an impression was “Black Sails.” 

This historical series set during the Golden Age of Piracy premiered on the Starz network in January 2014 and enjoyed a successful four-season run before concluding in April 2017. Earlier this week (Wednesday, April 17), the complete series of “Black Sails” arrived on Netflix, and with 38 episodes in total, it’s the perfect pick if you’re looking for something relatively meaty to binge-watch.
