One year ago today, I was just starting an episode of Black Sails that had me absolutely at the edge of my seat, and just about at this point in the episode, I remember messaging @jamesflintmcgrawhamilton and going “HE’S ALIVE, I’D BET YOU ANYTHING YOU LIKE AND BE SURE OF KEEPING IT.” I was talking, of course, about Thomas Hamilton, and I’ve never, ever been more relieved to be right about something in all my life. That’s the word for it – absolute, bone-melting relief, because the BS writers did something absolutely brilliant – they put us all in James McGraw’s shoes, thinking Thomas dead and gone, and then raised the idea that he could have survived, teasing and hinting until suggestion became reality just when we all thought it couldn’t happen. Happy Thomas Hamilton Resurrection Day, everyone!
