oh damn its about Cap'n Flint? maybe I do need to get into that, Treasure Island was my jam both book and movie as a kid, I even have a soft spot for Robert Newton
In the 1950 Treasure Island they all say "amen" but he says "arr men" shit still makes me laugh
It's also about the origin of Long John Silver and the music fucking slaps so hard and it features Teach and Calico Jack as well. Nassau is depicted as a proto-anarchist society and the whole show is incredibly gay.
It's such a great show, my only gripe is that I felt like the ending didn't really tie into treasure island as much as I'd hoped. It's really just its own great story with characters borrowed from the book.
Obligatory recommendation to watch Black Sails also (a prequel to Treasure Island)

That theme is right up my alley, damn I need to indulge my inner kid and get on that shit. Thanks for the recommendation.
I can only double the recommendation of the poster above; it's a great show to binge.
