TV series Outlander

[Goatboy]

Just wondering if anyone else has been perusing Outlander?

Very well shot and pretty well researched adaptation of Diana Galbadon's books. Set in 1945 & 1743 in Scotland. Wave just watched the first 7 episodes and enjoyed them. Even the dialogue is pretty well done which I always think is hard in these things as it rarely comes out as naturalistic. I imagine folks like Toddy will see some faults in the period costumes, I saw some faults in the tree species that would've been about at the time but on the whole it'll keep me entertained 'till "Vikings" comes back on.

I'm aware of it but won't watch it, because whenever I check out a series to see if I like it and I do, I end up watching the whole thing back to back.

I have xmas pressies to make, food to prepare, work to do to pay for it all.

Maybe in the new year.

I'm a bit like you in liking to watch in largish chunks. Luckily I don't sleep much so can watch overnight with no ill effects. Worth a decko but maybe not for the kiddies as there is a fair bit of nudity in the mix. (I look away at those points!)

The costumes are indeed imperfect but it's still pretty well done. I enjoyed reading the first couple of book but gave up because they got silly.

They were all a bit too "chick lit" for my taste I must admit. Wanted to like them but just a shade too much "Mills and Boone" or me
