''Black Sails'' is a [[CostumeDrama historical drama]] created by Jon Steinberg and Robert Levine that aired for four seasons, from 2014 to 2017, on Creator/{{Starz}}. Intended as a prequel to ''Literature/TreasureIsland'', the series focuses on Captain Flint, his allies and his rivals during the Golden Age of Piracy, their relentless pursuit of the gold that will one day become Flint's treasure, and their ongoing war with ‘civilized society'. It's a good deal DarkerAndEdgier than ''Franchise/PiratesOfTheCaribbean'' and its like, and it took up the mantle of Starz's signature show after ''Series/{{Spartacus|Blood And Sand}}'' reached its end.
