Starz will premiere the second season of Emmy-winning Original series, "Black Sails" tonight, January 24th at 9pm ET/PT.

The ten-episode second season of the authentic high sails drama series follows the most feared pirate of the day, Captain Flint (Toby Stephens), and his men, and takes place twenty years prior to Robert Louis Stevenson's classic "Treasure Island."

"Black Sails" season one set a Starz viewership record for a debuting Starz Original series during its opening weekend in January 2014, established an average of 5.3 million viewers per episode*, and is distributed in about 130 countries and territories worldwide.

SEASON TWO SYNOPSIS:

Season 2 begins where we left off-The Walrus crew is stranded, with an army of Spanish soldiers standing between them and the precious Urca gold. And with their crimes against their brethren no longer a secret, Flint and Silver must join forces in a desperate bid for survival. Meanwhile, Eleanor Guthrie struggles to maintain her grip on Nassau, as a new breed of pirate arrives in the form of Ned Low, a man for whom violence isn't just a tool ... it's a past time.

As blood is spilled, and tensions mount, Charles Vane must decide which he values more; Eleanor's life, or the respect of his men. And unbeknownst to all of them, a prize of immeasurable value has already been smuggled onto the island ... one whose discovery will alter the very landscape of their world, and force everyone in Nassau to toward the ultimate judgment: are they men, or are they monsters?

EPISODE 201 "IX." - SYNOPSIS:

Airdate: Saturday, January 24th **Season Premiere**

Flint and Silver face judgment before the crew. Vane enjoys his new position on the island. Max confronts Bonny. Eleanor faces a new threat.
