OUTLANDER 5 – Three toasts to the season finale. The rape scene was depicted in a tasteful way while still preserving the horror and violence of the act. Plus Starz posted a disclaimer at the beginning of the episode to fully warn viewers of what they were about to see. Personally, I thought the rapeContinue reading

OUTLANDER 5 – Episode 9 was stellar and the kind of story that endears this series to its many fans. Frannie and I loved it. Great bonding scenes between Jamie & Roger, Jamie & Young Ian and Jamie & Claire. It was beautiful and romantic, everything Outlander fans have come to expect. It also keptContinue reading

OUTLANDER 5 – Episode 8 was quite a departure from the norm. Francine didn’t like it at all. It was too far outside the box for her. I admit I had to watch it twice and pay closer attention to the opening scene (especially dialogue) to understand the symbolism. Once I did, I found itContinue reading

OUTLANDER 5 – Last night’s episode (#7) was riveting and heartbreaking, keeping closely to the book. My boyfriend, Murtagh, finally meets his end.

OUTLANDER 5 – Not much to chat about in episode two. Frannie as disgusted as Marsali by the amount of graphic blood and violence in tonight’s story. Not me. I find it makes the scenes realistic. I’m more bothered by the fact Marsali doesn’t call Claire “Mother Claire” as she does in the books whichContinue reading

OUTLANDER 5 – Frannie and I are settling in with our wee drams for the season 5 premiere of our favorite show. Beautiful music as always underscoring themes and characters. Happy to see they inserted some necessary major story events that were omitted last season. Case in point – the gathering on the ridge whereContinue reading
