  1. I added Starz to my tablet just for Outlander. Claire’s Mrs school graduation party is very young Jacqueline Kennedy pre-White House. It was gorgeous. But, I too am waiting for 18th century dress. Next week there are the Dunsany sisters.

  2. This is the strongest season yet for story lines. Though as a book reader I’m not happy with how they’ve changed some of the story lines. I think this is going to be the best season yet, though possibly not for costumes.

    BTW Mary was a servant not the midwife.

  3. Oh my god is this season gloriously depressing though! Seriously I want to give all the mains hugs! Especially Frank, my god was this not fair to him! I mean seriously! His wife leaves for 3 years with no expatiation as to where she’s been or who she’s been doing Wink Wink! and comes back pregnant, in remarkable preserved 18th century drag approx.
    200 years out of date(Still not gonna explain that one Claire.>:( Boo!) and in love with another man to boot! Yeah this whole series has not been kind to Frank Randall one of the sweetest male characters! Rip :(

    1. Glad to find others who see Frank as I do. I think so many viewers can’t get past their hatred for Tobias Menzies’ awesome but loathsome BJR character and transfer it unjustly onto Frank for being human.How many people, knowing their spouse loves someone else, would stay in such a loveless marriage? He is my favorite character and now my favorite actor (can’t find too much of Tobias in US). I will really miss him in the series! Kee

  4. It is airing on the “W” network in Canada…Sunday evenings just can’t come soon enough for me (waiting for the dvd release so I can binge-watch the whole thing!) Having read all the books, and, knowing pretty much what is to come still brings on the anxiousness!

  5. I’m just here here for Prof. Frank with his corduroy blazers and snazzy turtlenecks….

    Why yes, Professor, I would like to see you after class.

    1. I have such a hard time with the fact that I’m not supposed to be Team Frank, but I AM SO TOTALLY TEAM FRANK. Dude puts up with so much bullshit from Claire and it’s not like we are expected to believe that Claire can’t fucking wait until she’s rid of him and go running back to Jamie. And then he DARES have an affair? WTF CLAIRE, YOU HYPOCRITE.

      It also doesn’t help that Frank reminds me so much of my fiance. Right down to the jauntily cocked fedora.

      Sigh.

  6. Does anyone know why Terry Dresbach hasn’t updated her blog in so long? Her last post was phrased like it would be the first of many entries during the gap between seasons but there’s been nothing since August 2016. I’m sure she’s extremely busy, but I loved reading about how she chose the fabrics and what her inspirations were

    1. After the American Duchess/Simplicity release of Outlander patterns (that made no reference to Outlander/Terry), she decided to stop blogging. She mentioned it was too easy for people to knock-off the designs from the hi-res photos she was posting. I’m not sure it will prevent “knock-offs”, but I do understand how frustrating it is to have no say in how your work gets used once it’s out there in the wild.

  7. I loved the Dunsany sisters gowns. Especially the blue one Geneva was wearing. The 60s clothes are swimming in a sea of brown.
