- Dueling Shows: With Black Sails on Starz, which while entirely fictional, shares a time, place, and certain plot elements like the Pirate Republic. Given Black Sails had four seasons while Crossbones was cut short after only one, it'd be safe to assume Black Sails took this one.
- Fake Brit: American John Malkovich as the British Blackbeard.
