Season 6 is in the can. Droughtlander begins anew. Despite some flaws in the logic of this week’s story, I was very happy that we were given a generally excellent episode to cap off a generally excellent season! One of the best things in this episode was the renewed intimacy, in emotional terms, between Jamie […]
Writing these reviews is not always easy. I generally have to watch the episode three times, which can sometimes be painful (I’ve reviewed other shows besides Outlander, and believe me, some of them have been WAY more difficult to get through). Frequently, though, my opinion changes as I rewatch – usually for the better. A […]
Before the season started, we heard from Diana and from a few of the cast members that this would be an excellent, powerful season. Three episodes in – and while I had my quibbles with the first one, the only thing I really wanted to say about this one, episode 603, was that I loved […]
Funny, I heard an odd sound coming from the Outlander fandom today – a sigh of relief. And contentment. This week’s episode, “Allegiance,” had no huge high or low points, no fights, no violence – but it wasn’t in any way dull or unexciting. What it did have was what we’ve been looking for – […]
We have successfully survived Droughtlander! While our reprieve may be short, a brief 8-episode season, we have high expectations based on the word from Diana Gabaldon and the cast (although, what are they going to say? “No, it’s really awful, don’t bother”?). The first episode of the season wasn’t the brilliant, genius outing many of […]
While Samantha and Koko were chatting with cast members at the Outlander Season 6 London premiere, we asked them to describe their characters in three words. It was harder for some than for others – but everyone took the assignment seriously! Some of our participating stars are familiar, and you may have your own three […]
Outlander had its exciting Season 6 premiere in London this past week! TiBS sent two correspondents, Koko Pipkin and Samantha Kraupner, to represent us on the star-studded red carpet and ask lots of questions (pointed and insightful, lol). While Caitriona was unable to appear in person, she graciously met with reporters from various outlets for […]
Rating: 5 Stars In the summer of 1969, violence came to the streets of Belfast. It wasn’t the first time, and surely wouldn’t be the last. But it became the backdrop to the lives of working people, people for whom these streets were home. One of those was a very young Kenneth Branagh, who recently […]
Today, Outlander took over New York City ComicCon! The show hosted a panel with Diana Gabaldon, Maril Davis, and Sam Heughan appearing in person, and John Bell, Lauren Lyle, Cesar Domboy, and Caitriona Balfe appearing remotely. They offered some insight into the upcoming Season 6 (still with no definite air date). This is a summary […]
With a Twitter name change – to Outlander Is In Production! – the Starz show announced today that they are beginning filming! A sigh of anticipation has filled the fandom. Of course, we all know the drill – it will still be months before Episode 601 airs, but we can look forward (I hope!!) to […]
