Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT While the Pirates of the Caribbean series has meandered through several unnecessary sequels, the pirate TV show Black Sails is better than Disney's franchise in many ways.

However, in the long run, Black Sails' lack of supernatural elements worked out better than Pirates of the Caribbean's magic-based storylines.
The most significant one is between Flint and Thomas Hamilton , who are reunited at the end of the series. Max is in a relationship with Eleanor Guthrie at the beginning of the series, which ends relatively quickly. Max later has a polyamorous relationship with Jack Rackham and Anne Bonny .
