Now that she's in the past, there's a lot more of the fighting stuff.... Should appeal more to guys in the next episodes.

The part I found chick flicky is that she fell through a time warp and the first person she connects with is a ruggedly handsome guy at least 4 points hotter than her husband.

no wonder chicks love this book!

Watched first episode with wife. We both decided to give series a pass. Just not in our wheelhouse.

The first episode is probably the least interesting, IMO. I've watched it a couple of times.

Frank is so freaking boring.

Thanks. I guess I watched the pilot on On Demand before it actually aired, so I was confused why there wasn't a new episode this past Saturday. Didn't realize the premiere was actually this past Saturday.

Yeah, right about the time I realized episode 1 was almost over, I also realized I had to wait two weeks for episode 2 "Castle Leoch".

I've been a fan of these books for over 20 years.

So far so good. The one thing I can't get over is how short Jamie's hair is! Every time I read the books I've pictured him with long red hair. The actor's face is awfully nice but I do wish his hair was longer.

I'm looking forward to the next episode.

His hair started short in the books because of a head wound.

Hysterical review. Long but worth the read.

Watched it on the DVR last night. It was okay, I'll give the second episode a chance.

Of course, the wife loved it.

They announced it's been renewed for season 2.

After only one episode? Wow. I wonder if each season is a book.
GoneGirl

That's what they've said they're going to do.
This season is a split season with 8 episodes now, then a break, and 8 more starting in Jan.

I follow the costume director on Twitter (I admit, I'm a costume geek) and she's researching stuff for book 2 (Dragonfly in Amber).

16 episodes per season is more than normal too.

Edit: they're, their, there.... having a problem with that this morning.

Yay!!! I really like this series. Any time the first episode is on I watch it. Total geek about this book

Claire should carve a message on the table telling her future self to not touch the rock.

Alternatively, she can possibly communicate a message to her husband that way.

Bought the ebook collection. Had me worried at first when I read that it was "50 Shades..." set in Scotland, but there is plenty of fighting and mayhem. Finished book 1 before the series started. Wife loves the series, as expected.

You should punch anyone that says Outlander is like 50 shades of grey!

I think Geillis Duncan is another time traveler who suspects Claire is too.

Anyone buying Jamie more than Claire? I was not thrilled about the choice for Jamie when it was announced, but I've bought into him. Not as much with Claire.

I am really enjoying the series.

What was with the music last night? Didn't match at all.

It's supposed to show how she's still thinking like the 1940s. Like if you were in her head. I get why they do it, but I don't care for it, myself.

I am enjoying the series though.

Well that makes sense now that you explain it.

I'M READY FOR THE MARRIAGE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

And I don't remember what comes next so I started the book again, but I find myself skipping through stuff to get where we are in the mini-series. I feel like I'm cheating on Jaime, Claire, and Gabaldon.

This last episode was so slow!

SPOILERS PEOPLE! Is this a spoilers thread btw? I mean I don't care that much about this series, so I'm okay with it...just looking out for others.

To be fair, i never said WHO was getting married.

Well, since episode 7 is titled "the Wedding" (and that's on wiki), is that REALLY a spoiler?

With only 2 episodes left, I don't believe they're getting through the first book in season 1. It'll be 2 seasons for the first book. They could drag this out longer than GOT.
