NBC's Crossbones series drew me in with the prospect of John Malkovich as Blackbeard, and while he does indeed dig into the pirate role with relish, it's not enough to save the show.

If you were to watch Crossbones simply to see Malkovich deploy the ever-evolving, unplaceable, semi-loony accent he uses throughout, I would not fault you at all.

If you can make it through the first episode, well, you get honorary pirate status. If you don't make it through, just go rent Luther and Being John Malkovich.
