Very disappointing season.  

We used to argue two seasons ago (can’t remember my user name from then) about how I thought Claire was incessantly ssss’ing - scowling, scorning, sad, sulking, sorrowful,snivelling and why was there so much crying in Scotland, but now she’s vastly improved. At least the incessant gentle sobbing has stopped!!

Tooootally agree.

He’s a good actor but, like Sam Heughan, he’s not being used properly. It’s all about the chicks and one of those chicks is a mediocre actress.

I think it should have stopped at the printer’s shop. Their love story was resolved right there.

Do they ignore the contemporaneous circumstances of the lovers which won’t work because that’s not who J&C are (as evidenced by Culloden), do they become SJWs of their time and the whole story becomes about indigenous rights (again history records no

He hears fine he’s just become habituated to your constant caterwauling.

Yes, but that’s exactly what history records as happening. The Scots did leave their invaded country and did wrest control of their new lands from the incumbents. As much as modern sensibilities find that distasteful (and it is) that’s exactly what happened. It can then be supposed that they did not have problem with

Best comment so far.

...and her rape obsession.

Hi Punky.  It’s funny.  It has a heritage.  What’s not to love?

I’m going with Firefly on this one.
