Starz Posts "Black Sails" Pilot Online

A week before its debut on January 25th, Starz has posted online the complete pilot episode of its Michael Bay-produced adult pirate drama "Black Sails".

This is the Treasure Island prequel... I've not watched it yet but I have been hoping this turns out well. We will see.
