did i think we'd be romancing BLACKBEARD HIMSELF? no. but did i immensely enjoy it? YES. maybe i didn't expect the show's writing to be so good but it surpassed my expectations for sure. stede is a surprisingly well-written character, and even blackbeard—or ed, rather—had interesting depth to him, which i hope will be explored more in the next season coz it left me wanting for more. the crew is absolutely hilarious and a colorful cast of characters. they all grow on you hehe. the finale was an interesting end. can't wait to see more of ed and stede in the next season.
