OUTLANDER 5 – Now y’all know Outlander is my favorite show. I would pay my own way to Scotland and work background just to be a part of it. And I’ve recently read the books. I find, though, that season 4 and now season 5 get harder to appreciate as the story becomes more dense and bogged down in historic detail. I end up not liking it as well the first time around. When I view for a second time, however, I find it just as engaging. Frannie says she can only deal with one viewing….and she’s a big fan too. And where’s my boyfriend Murtagh? He adds a lot to the story, particularly since by this time in the book, he is long dead. How his storyline develops in the show will be a bit of a surprise. Also, I always suspected the writers would bring back Willie, the young Highlander who fled with his Irish lass to the colonies in Season 2. I keep waiting for Jamie to bump into him in North Carolina, but so far, nada. I’m still toasting, but Frannie’s wavering a bit….at least for this episode. Boyfriend Meter – MIA.
