It’s the last episode of Season 2! I got my box of tissues but I’m groovin’ to the 60s music. There’s so much to talk about! Great performances by Caitriona Balfe and Sam Heughan but where’s the Bahston accent Brianna? Claire is still chasing Jamie’s ghost and she pulls a Lady Macbeth. Dougal, we’ll miss
Ira Steven Behr and Anne Kenney write a kick ass episode! M-m-m-marvelous Mary is back and she’s brought along the Randall Brothers. I respectfully decline my invitation to this wedding. Dougal and Black Jack’s relationships with their respective brothers delves deeper into their connections. We see tender and affection in new ways from these two.
This DIA virgin is so nervous for the impending finale to Season 2! How are you getting ready? I’m speculating! Outlander fandom is full of the book readers but I’ll get to Dragonfly in Amber in good time. What will the Battle of Culloden really be like? It’s about the battle of our hearts. Jamie, stop
It’s Ep 11 of Outlander’s Season 2! Diana Gabaldon “Herself” penned this week’s ep and I’m counting a few Gabaldonisms. Surprised? Sam/Jamie and Cait/Claire are all mixed up but that’s cause they’re my friends…in my head. The Duke of Sandringham and m-m-m-marvelous Mary are back but…Wherefore art thou, Alex Randall??
It’s “Prestonpans” Ep10 part two! Alright we talked about the happier stuff (Jamie and that bow!) but we gotta get to the sad stuff. We love these characters! Dougal the complex tragic hero, the shameless but still loveable Angus and his demise, the loss of innocence and some great battle sequences! Leave a comment! Battle too
Let’s just start with the fun stuff before it gets REAL. Jamie, why must you live only in fantasy? So many intense looks and that bow as you say goodbye? I can’t even. Lt.Foster is back but for a moment before Dougal smotes him. And he was so cute… Nurse Beecham tarries a little too
Did you believe Claire when she claims to have told Jamie about her and Dougal’s previous arrangement? She’s calling Dougal’s bluff! I don’t know who this William Grey is but I guess he’s a big deal. Also what is up with the dragonfly in amber?! I gotta know! There are some mysterious lines in this
We’re back in Scotland in Episode 208 but can we stay a little longer in Lallybroch to see our friends? We’re over the “mid season” hump and the opening titles have some mystery images: 1960s cars and soldiers! Laoghaire returns and I’m wondering if she has really reformed or trying to convince herself? And can
In this episode title “Faith”, how many tissues did you go through? My face is still puffy from crying. Claire and Jamie are tested once more and their Faith carries them through. Catriona Balfe’s performance is nothing short of a tour de force. I don’t need to see anymore from Black Jack Randall. Let’s just
Masquerades and Games I really did not like this episode. Upon first viewing I had no desire to watch it again. Quelle horreur! Right after an episode ends, I always rewatch (again and again) and delight that each one improves upon the last. Episode 5’s “Untimely Resurrection” left me thrilled, exasperated, and eager to
An Untimely Resurrection is upon us! This episode is a bit mind blowing, tense, and utterly exhilarating! It’s a BJR in Paris but did you feel bad for him being humiliated? I didn’t. The tension builds and we’re left with Jamie and Claire. Is this the Ultimate Test? Don’t forget to subscribe to my newsletter!
Last few thoughts on Ep 4 before we head into Ep 5! Mary is so m-m-marvelous! How does BJR screw this all up? Geillis moments, Frank moments, speculations from a DIA virgin and it’s “Spot Madonna in Outlander”!
I’m talking about bad etiquette, Le Comte and his sexy side eye, Alex Randall needs a talk, and Sandringham’s sweet tooth. Also, what do you do to get through Droughtlander week? I look at Tobias Menzies.
New Pocket Jamie and a new month so a new calendar pic! “La Dame Blanche” was so exhilarating! We gotta talk about Jame and Claire and their sexual healing. Not sure about le whore but I’m happy that they’re back together…for now. And how about his monologue? Book 1 excerpt below (I just couldn’t help
I’m still getting used to Season 2 as Claire and Jamie (“Clamie”) voyage on rough waters. No one is to be trusted this episode. Maybe even Master Raymond? Secrets are held but when will they be told? Jamie isn’t always honest (and why did he to go to Maison Elise after their argument?) and neither
Darkness in the bedroom and plotting to stop the Jacobite Rebellion. We meet new friends: Louise, a King, a Prince, and a brother of someone sinister. Oh and who is Mary Hawkins?! Smile! You’ve Met a New Friend
Looking back at Season 2’s Episode 1 “Through A Glass, Darkly”, what are the echoes from Season 1? Fireplaces, Black Jack Randall, and Ghosts! Also, some speculation for Season 2 from a Dragon Fly in Amber Virgin! The Ring, Little Roger Wakefield, pregnancies, and that pesky time travel. (Oh and Tobias Menzies needs an Emmy.)
It’s here! It’s here! Let’s cheer it through the streets and dive right into the first episode! #vivelesfrasers!
From my couch in Queens, special guest Sarah and I talk about all the buzz happening in our fair city as we gear up for the last week of Droughtlander! Tartan parades! A-list panels! TV Appearances with Sam and Cait! It might be cold the next few days but the Outlander heat is ON! Also
With one more month to go before the Season 2 premiere, there are so many exciting events going on in the Outlander world! An influx of new promo pics, latest trailer, new characters, spoilers, and Tartan parades leaves this Urban Outlander’s head swirling! Where to begin and how to participate in all of the fandom
Hey this is my first post (ever)! So glad you could stop by and take a peek at what’s brewing over here! I’m new to Outlander (compared to all the legions of fans who’ve been following for years) but my passion is strong. So strong I had to start blogging about it. I’ll be mixing
