I’ve already read the books, three times, and I’ve watched the series on TV, but now the season 4 is on Netflix and I’m watching it again. SO GOOD. I’m not sure how many men like it, but women will love it forever. History, adventure and romance at its best.
I've got one more episode of "The Mist" to finish and then I will be watching "Outlander" again. Thanks for the update.
As for the books, I can only read them one time only. I am reading "Written in my own heart's blood" right now and waiting for the last one, "Tell the bee's that I am gone." I don't think it has been released yet.
I never made it through Season 1. Too soap opera-ish for me.
Am I the only one who was bothered by the fact that the heroine is cheating on her husband the entire show? That doesn't bother anyone? Really? That's just okay now?
I gave up on the 5th season. Such a departure from the books that I shut it off. I like the actors a lot, but the changes to the story were too much. I got to the autopsy scene and thought it was over the top (and yes, I know they did something like it in the books but that was a stretch in that).

In the books she struggles with that issue a lot. In the show, not so much.
But a point of philosophy - can you be cheating on someone who hasn't even been born yet?

Yes. She is married. She made the vow. She is still the same person who made the vow. If she could somehow travel from 1945 to 1743, that no more erases her vow than had she traveled from Saturday to Wednesday. How is that any different than a guy who might say, "Hey, I know we got married in Minneapolis --- but this is Vegas, baby!"
I know it's just a TV show. But it still kept me from liking the heroine.
So, just for arguments sake, if she can never go back is she supposed to live her life alone? It's not like Frank is just going to show up one day.
Also, you could argue that she married in 1743, a couple of centuries earlier than Frank in the 1930s.
Like I said, philosophy.
