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.
For an episode without bombs, or shooting, or even any Snyder, this was a packed one. There are more than one way to terrorize a population – and violence isn’t always the most frightening. This episode was titled Panopticon – you may not know exactly what the word means, but this episode showed you what […]
Who do you love? Who’s your Outlandventine? Or, more importantly, who loves you? And… is there someone you’re having trouble finding a Valentine’s Day gift for, or someone who’s having trouble finding one for you? Here are my suggestions for some fun Outlander-related gifts to give and to receive. And one lucky winner will receive […]
As Colony gets into its second season, and the mysteries deepen, creator/producer Ryan Condal took a few minutes and answered some questions for us. I also spoke with Ryan after the first season ended, and you can find the link to that interview at the bottom of this one! Who was the hardest character to […]
What a packed episode! If you didn’t gasp at least five times while you watched, you weren’t paying attention. Go back and rewatch. One of the biggest moments came right at the beginning – sure, those of us in the Resistance think that anyone who would sign up to be a Red Hat is contemptible […]
Sublimation: to divert the energy of (a sexual or other biological impulse) from its immediate goal to one of a more acceptable social, moral, or aesthetic nature or use. This week on Colony: Will, Devon, and Charlie attempt a daring journey home. Will makes it home, but how did he do it without the transit pass? […]
One of my biggest questions last season on Colony concerned the amount of work that had to have been done before the Arrival. Slogans, uniforms, organization – how did everything come together so quickly? The wall comes down – and everything’s ready to go. And this year, in two episodes, we’ve seen just a bit […]
CONTEST CLOSED Whether you’re a dedicated quilter or a hobby seamstress, or just like playing with pretty things, you’ll find something to like in Andover Fabrics’ new Outlander collection. I wrote about this new collection several months ago, but the company recently sent me samples of all of the pieces in the collection so I […]
It was inevitable – and much hoped for. What really happened that day of the Arrival? What happened before it? Because there was obviously a huge amount of pre-planning. And who had “embezzling low-level opportunist” in the Snyder pool? This year’s first episode started much the same way the pilot did – breakfast at the […]
Yes, ok, I’m a stalker. I realize that not all of you are, and that some of you have much more productive lives than I do. So you don’t pay great attention to the random questions that Diana Gabaldon answers on Twitter, which aren’t really part of an organized Q&A. But she’s quite interesting, often […]
Outlander producer and writer Matt Roberts must have had a few down minutes today, and we always enjoy when he uses those precious seconds to answer fan questions on Twitter! But apparently I should be paying attention to Instagram too? Here’s the Q&A: Q How long has it been since you’ve read the whole series? […]
