Also, Brianna and Roger mentioning Nathan Hale’s “I regret that I have but one life to give my country.”

I legit screamed when Rodger said that- such a perfect call back without being super heavy handed. Also- A+++ on the Roger casting. When they put that man in a kilt, I’m gonna need my smelling salts.
Very mixed feelings about this episode. Wrapped up a lot of the Sandringham nonsense, which was completely incomprehensible in the book, but a little better on the show. I find the episode rather boring, but a decent transition to upcoming stuff. Saw traces of Diana Gabaldon’s writing all over this script -…
HA HA HA! But...there is Lord John to look forward to! And I do like their story.
His lashes and his giant eyes kill me. KILL ME DEAD.
Agreed. But on the other hand, it can be much more poignant to see the happy go lucky guy devestated than the sensitive one.
I don’t watch this show, but famn that bald old man is giving me hot daddy realness LOL
I honestly struggle with whether to recommend the books or not. They’re good, but they have issues (and the very few Diana Gabaldon interviews I’ve read makes it clear she has no desire to examine her shortcomings or grow in her craft so it’s unlikely to change). She needs an editor not afraid to tell her to cut out…
I’ve been loving that song lately, too. And my 4 year old is really into “Drag Me Down” by One Direction. Very Zayn-y times in my household...
I’m a huge snob who doesn’t laugh easy, and “Brooklyn Nine-Nine” is pretty much the only new comedy TV show I’ve liked in a bazillion years. It’s totally disarming.
Scotland is twenty kinds of beautiful. This picture is from Glenfinnan. Out of frame to the left is the train viaduct featured in several Harry Potter movies. The water is the northern end of Loch Shiel where several aerial shots of “Hogwarts Lake” were filmed. The small structure to the left is a memorial to the…
I loved that! I even said out loud to my screen, “YOU BETTER TAKE THAT FUCKING ORANGE” and she totally did and it made my day
Can we talk about the Compte’s acting, too? I was really blown away. That actor REALLY mastered the way you’d imagine someone would act in that situation. He had tears of frustration, you could see his body physically rejecting it when he first tried to drink the poison, with his teeth locking shut. You could really…
You have to go on the costume designer’s blog : terrydresbach . com She shows so many close ups of pretty fabric!
I loved Bouton! And I love that they cast a Cairn Terrier. Our cairn is just as “talkative”.
And Claire: she’s already pregnant. Why make things harder on yourself by going full Brazilian? (yes, I know, JAMIE....)
Claire’s face is everything in that scene. And Jamie’s “kill me now” squirming.
Murtagh is the #1 Jamie/Claire shipper and I approve!
***Fan girl alert*** Murtaugh is criminally underrated! I absolutely love that character. Duncan Lacroix can express so many emotions with his eyebrows. He was on point this episode.
