Well, there we have it - one more reality opportunity wasted: Pirate Master sucks. Big time. And not in a good way.

First strike is a personal choice: I like the reality shows where people DO stuff better than the reality shows where people scheme to get others kicked off [the island/the apartment/the mansion]. And this was just Big Brother / Survivor on a pirate ship (and while the ship was awesome, the clothing looked like it came straight from a “dress like a colorblind sailor” theme party).

But even more important, can you say “scripted” three times fast in a row? Boy, were those people fake. D/E/F failed TV actors the lot of them.

Well, to be fair, there was one good thing: One of the “contestants” (awesomely) was credited as “Scientist/Exotic dancer”. Ha, ha, ha! Wow, we have too few of those multi-taskers around. Don’t know who to hire for your ladies’ night out? MIT to the rescue! Bom-chica-bow-wow, Dr Bunsen! He was voted out, though.

That’s it! Abandon ship, everyone, away, avast, and avaunt, mateys! ARRR - why is all the rum gone?
