I guess Pirate Master was doing pretty darned badly in the ratings -- I was getting ready to watch it at 10, saw it wasn't scheduled, and when I checked CBS.com, it appears the show will be airing only online from here on out. Ouch.

They're posting the new episodes each Tuesday.

I just watched the newest one. The big twist was that there were no longer officers, so that disbanded "the Triad" alliance. Then during the challenge, the red crew won and chose Christa as the new captain. Then yet another twist showed up -- the captain got 100 percent of the treasure. (She ended up dividing it up equally, though.)

Now only two pirates are "marked" with the black spot for possible elimination, and Christa chose Kendra and Azmyth. Everyone must have felt it was the last chance to get rid of their strongest competition because it was unanimous, and Azmyth was out.

Local competitor Louie Frase is still hanging in there. With Azmyth out, maybe he will make some more waves.
