I’ve been here a long time, happy to be Senior Editor. My kids are ok with me being a nerd (at least I think so, but they’ve left home, so, like, who knows). Hubby rolls his eyes. Covering Outlander and a variety of other current shows, movies and books.
Often, when I rewatch an episode to write my review, I like it more than I did on the first watch. The nuances and performances are more interesting, the writing makes more sense. But with this one – my first watch, I thought it was excellent, one of my favorites. And on second watch, while […]
Q You said in one of this episode’s interviews that you weren’t sure how you were going to play it. Do you feel like the experience changed or added anything to your approach as an actor? Was it your hardest acting challenge to date? A It’s definitely up there as one the hardest challenges. Telling […]
Missing Downton Abbey? Poldark? Still gnashing your teeth about Sanditon? Maybe you need something to watch in between Outlander episodes?

Matt Roberts took some time this afternoon to answer fan questions: Since a new #Outlander episode is next week, I’m going to do a fast and furious Q&A session right now! Q Has the pause button been hit on the Official Outlander Podcasts? Was looking for episode 507… A Yes, the Podcasts were put on […]
I feel like I repeat myself most weeks in season 5 – more than halfway through at this point, and the majority of the episodes have been terrific! This one, The Ballad of Roger Mac, is probably the best in what has been a great season – and one of the best of the entire […]
Outlander is, more than usual, the show I’m most excited about. Halfway through, this has been a generally excellent season. This episode is, with a few exceptions, continuing along that line. But honestly, as I sit here in my social distancing state-mandated lockdown, away from my parents and my kids, the temptation to give in […]
Just what we needed right now – Sam Heughan chatted with fans on Twitter before tonight’s episode! (see a Monday morning addition at the end!) Here’s the entire Q&A: Q where are you spending the confinement? And where would you like to spend it? A Thanks for asking, I’m in Hawaii. Came here before travel […]
Today would have been Outlander’s presentation and panel at PaleyFest, but like so many other events right now, it was cancelled. So Caitriona helped to satisfy our craving for our favorite cast members, and did a second Twitter Q&A this afternoon, taking fan questions for nearly an hour. Q What would be Claire’s go to […]
This week’s episode, Perpetual Adoration, was a time twister in more ways than one. This season has been generally a new start for the show, which has had its ups and downs. For the most part, I’ve really enjoyed the first several episodes of Season 5; and then we come to this episode. This outing […]
