Celebrating four years with Three If By Space. Well, um, “celebrating…” My boss has a very large display cabinet full of Star Wars and Star Trek collectibles. My kids are ok with me being a nerd. Like they have a choice. Covering Outlander and a variety of other current shows, movies and books.
One of the most attractive parts of Outlander, I’ve always found, is the strength of character of its men. Jamie, Roger, Lord John, Colum, Ian Sr and Jr, even Dougal, are men with failings, to be sure, but they know where they need to go, they have faith in who they are, and they develop, […]
Due to some technical issues prior to our broadcast tonight, I wasn’t able to put up a slideshow featuring the fan fundraising campaigns we discussed. I truly appreciate my guests coming to discuss their fundraising efforts with us – Melissa Pflueger of the Southern Sassenachs; Christine Gordon from Sassenach Society of South Jersey; and Koko […]
Jamie’s Aunt Jocasta, Irish actress/singer Maria Doyle Kennedy, answered fan questions on Twitter this afternoon. Okay Beauts , I’m here for 30-40 mins for as many questions as we can get in ( Im supposed to be in a recording studio so if I suddenly blank for a minute it’s because I’ve ducked under the […]
Outlander doesn’t shy away from tackling the hard subjects. And that’s definitely a good thing, because the books are full of difficult moments, contradictions between what was done “then” and what is done “now.” That juxtaposition, with Claire in the middle, frequently creates tension and trouble, and we know we wouldn’t have it any other […]
The last 11 months haven’t been so bad, have they? A thing worth having is a thing worth waiting for, right? But finally, Jamie and Claire have embarked on their new adventure, attempting to settle down in America. This production has had changes from the start – large and small, important, delightful, baffling. I’m sure […]
This Sunday night, or Saturday night if you can get it on demand, the first episode of the fourth season of the juggernaut that is Outlander airs. Church bells will toll, small children will happily dream (don’t let your small children watch Outlander), food will taste better, men will be sexier….and Jamie and Claire will […]
Have you been following PBS’ Great American Read? As I’m writing this, the finale is being taped in New York, with our Diana as one of the co-hosts. The GAR is a joint program between PBS and the American Library Association, spotlighting the 100 books that Americans have indicated are their favorites (you can see […]

I love going to Outlander events, love meeting cast members, love seeing old friends and making new ones… I’ve been to two this year so far, and I have another one planned. And one that sounds like a lot of fun is coming up fast – Outlandish Vancouver. This year will feature the “next generation” […]
I was well into adulthood when the Harry Potter series came out, and I found it a couple of years after its debut, when my son started reading it in second or third grade. But boy oh boy, these books turned me into a kid again. And I can’t tell you how much I love […]
