At the end of last season the show killed Dougal and Colum and Angus. At the beginning of this season it killed Rupert. Yeah, Jamie & Claire are pretty safe what with being the main characters and all, but it doesn’t seem like anyone else really is.

Don’t go by these reviews - the reviewer apparently watches with only about half her attention because she’s always getting things wrong and missing important points. I had a whole rant typed up about this particular review but I apparently didn’t actually hit “publish.”

I am gutted by this - I really thought he was one of the good ones but Jesus, that was just a few years before he was elected to the Senate. I am also gutted because (assuming nothing else comes out) a man that I believe is mostly decent but did a gross thing to an adult woman is going to be drummed out of the Senate…

Good point. These reviews really are not very good.

Most likely. At least before, I could console myself with a decent comment section but not since Kinja. My favorite Outlander posters apparently don’t post here.

Isn’t that what this reviewer is doing?

In her defense (now that I’ve complained about her elsewhere in this thread), a show that requires the viewer to read the books is doing it wrong. The books help, but they shouldn’t be a requirement to make sense of what’s happening, though it’s clear that this reviewer cannot do so. The fact that others do fine says…

These continue to be the worst, most point-missing reviews of this show that I’ve seen on professional sites.

Wait, this is supposed to be news to people?

This might have been my least favorite episode of this show, ever. Tonally everything just seemed really weird and off. It wasn’t that there were changes from the books, exactly. It was as though these were entirely different characters.

“Max dismisses the boys as “stalkers,” a term that wouldn’t have been common use in 1984"

Wasn’t that part of the deal - Hopper & Joyce were able to go get Will unmolested in exchange for their silence? I might be misremembering.

I’m pretty sure I would have hated that haircut even in the 80's.

Will was missing.

He’s probably way hotter than the usual brothel clientele.

Apparently Claire felt like her life wasn’t full. What makes you think she was happy in Boston?

I love grown-up Fergus. It’s hard to imagine how they could have gotten an actor more believably an older version of the younger actor. I have to say I’m going to miss Romann Burrux quite a bit, though.

Apparently he works out for an hour or two every day. I don’t personally get it, though I can’t argue with the results.

That’s not a common reaction. Care to elaborate?

1) Willie isn’t supposed to be a redhead.
