Synopsis
Claire Beauchamp Randall, a nurse during World War II, is mysteriously transported back in time to Scotland in 1743. There, she meets a brave Highland warrior and is drawn into an epic rebellion. Moore (the series’ creator), the crew decided to keep the Gaelic words rather than translate them into English. This supports the first-person narrative by showing Claire’s inability to understand Gaelic.
In several episodes, the characters say “OK”
This idea was suggested by producer David Brown, who said he saw something similar in Skin Deep (1998), a foreign alternative film starring actor and singer Gustavo Goulart. ; An American term that did not come into use until the 19th century. The opening theme song changes from season to season to reflect what is happening in the storyline. In the first half of Season 2 (which is set in France), some of the lyrics are in French.
Featured in Outlander: An Epic Adaptation (2015)
In the second half of Season 2 (which is mostly about preparing for war), a militaristic drum was added to the opening theme. During Season 3, tribal drums were added, as much of the season is set in the West Indies. In Season 4, a bluegrass fiddle and banjo were added, plus some of the lyrics are sung in a Southern accent, as the season is mostly set in America.

The first two seasons were amazing
I couldn’t take my eyes off the screen. The music, the set, the characters were perfect. However, after Season 3, it took a big dip and became really boring. Brianna and Roger are really annoying, and Brianna in particular is hard to watch at times.
So I left the show
It’s really disappointing because it was such an amazing show. I watched season 4 and still season 5 but it just became clear that he would never get his magic back. I’m not sure if it’s the same story as the book but I did but the books and I think I’ll read those instead.
