Outlander

I'm late to discover this series, and managed to binge it all to Season 7A in a month. The first 2 seasons feel like a completely different show, it keeps me glued and craving just one more episode. But my God the beginning of Season 3 was a chore. I know many don't like Richard but man, I love him as Roger, he just brings a realism to the character for me. Sophie however comes across as an acting student trying too hard to play a spoilt child. Her scenes are downright painful to watch and there is 0 chemistry between her and Richard, and man who's idea was that terrible accent? Really the wrong actress for the part.

I loved the first two seasons and the 3rd season was still fine. But all started going downhill in 4th and 5th seasons.

Not gonna lie but I feel like Sophie Skelton was not meant to play Brianna. Same with Richard rankin. They didn't feel like the characters. Instead I actually felt like they were trying to become the characters but failed miserably.

There were timeS when everyone did quite a performance in this series but I felt like in was lacking in these two. Especially Sophie Skelton (Brianna).

I love Lauren Lyle and her acting is immaculate. I feel like she's under appreciated. She needs more hype. Marsali is such a badass.

What am I to do. Now that I know this exists. I'm not sure I will find my own way back to my life.

I never read the Outlander books so I didn't really know what to expect. I originally thought it was a show targeted just for women but I was way wrong. This show has something for everyone and I'm so glad I finally gave it a chance because it's become one of my favorite shows! I binged the entire series and absolutely loved it! The only negative thing I have to say about it is that Season 6 was really not that good, and that's coming from a fan. I pretty much had to force myself to watch it and even found myself fast forwarding through some episodes.

The first two seasons were amazing. I could not take my eyes of the screen.

The music, the set, the characters were perfect.

However, it took a huge nosedive after season 3 and became really boring.

Brianna and Rodger are really annoying and Brianna especially is hard to watch sometimes.

It's really disappointing because it was such an amazing show. I did watch season 4 and still me of season 5 but it just became apparent that it was never going to get its magic back. So I've quit the show.

Not sure if it is the same story as the book but I did but the books and think I'm going to read those instead.
