I, too, thought The Buccaneers was going to be a flop, but I stuck with it, and the story grew, got stronger, and more engaging. Some of the acting was weak, but it certainly didn't deserve the poor ratings some of these reviewers gave it.
I thoroughly enjoyed the soundtrack, with Taylor Swift singing in the first and last episode (Oh my!!! Now they'll really swoon!). I like this new genre that blends 21st Century music, language, and mores with Austen and Wharton. It's also even more amusing watching the purists clutch their pearls over it!
The Buccaneers ended with a cliffhanger and got a second season, so maybe the haters should have watched past Episode 1.
