I loved her show. 

Sandra Lee is indefensible but I think Rachael Ray got a lot of people cooking who might not have cooked, and that’s something. Way back in the day, the FN had a nice variety of skill levels so that both experienced and inexperienced cooks could find useful content.

Only if she brings her Kitchen Aids with her. The ones that are chosen to match that episodes daycore and do nothing but huddle in the corner in shame.  

It makes me think that all is not well in Outlanderland. If they’re going over Tall Ship’s (the production company) head right to the network and Sony, that makes me think that they’ve already struck out with the production company.

I like how absolutely no one is trying to understand Roger’s feelings. Roger was beaten, kidnapped and then enslaved. Then he was forced to help a man burn to death more quickly and watch a woman burn to death with him.

What other relationship has he had since the maid in season 2, more than 20 years prior to his boning Jocasta?

It could be any of those things - they don’t know much about it and it isn’t discussed very much in the show. That said, isn’t the uncertainty about what could happen enough of a motivator to keep your kid away from the stones?

It isn’t discussed much in the show but the whole experience is said to be horrible and terrifying and they’re pretty sure that there are people who went into the stones and never got out.  

Or the baby could die on the way.

I just read an interview with Sam Heughan in which he said that he and Caitriona Balfe are going to try to get some more creative control over the story and their characters.  Apparently they are going to talk to Starz & Sony about it.  

Ron Moore always said that they weren’t going to have sex scenes just to have sex scenes. If the sex isn’t helping to tell the story, then he isn’t going to put his actors through them. We saw them having sex in the beginning of the season. It established that they are a happy, thriving couple in love. I don’t,

Even book readers hate the first 100 pages or so of The Fiery Cross.

Sigh. That was Otter Tooth. The reviewer is always bleating on about the Native Americans not being fleshed out, not having back stories. Well, the title card was an attempt to give one of them a bit of a back story.

She pretty much learned that individuals cannot effect change on an epic scale after Culloden. I’m less concerned about her preventing genocide than I am about them not helping the woman who was thrown out of camp for helping them. 

I like the last two books a lot, though I skip a lot of the war and battle scenes.

A couple of years ago, that would have made me sad but I honestly wouldn’t care at this point. I kind of wish that they would break out of their book-a-season conceit. There’s enough interesting stuff in the last four books to make two good seasons of television but there isn’t enough interesting (to me) stuff in

There is no way for them to know if the child can go through the stones and until they do know that, they can’t risk it. 

“It’s a rare centering of violence for the sake of violence that this show usually doesn’t dabble in.”

People share their Amazon accounts?  Is it possible to have a Prime password separate from the rest of Amazon?  I have credit cards linked to my Amazon account for Kindle & the app store (as well as ease of purchasing other stuff) so I would never ever share that password.
