Outlander Superlatives: Episode 208 – “The Fox’s Lair”

There are a lot of things I’ll miss about the Frasers being in France. I’ll miss Jamie’s beautiful ponytails, Claire’s fierce cloaks, Love Man Murtaugh’s dalliances with Suzette, and, of course, King Louis and his fancy, fancy hands. But all good road trips must come to an end, and like Laird Lallybroch, I was beyond … More Outlander Superlatives: Episode 208 – “The Fox’s Lair”

Outlander Superlatives: Episode 207 – “Faith”

Oh, Outlander. What you do to me! Just when it seemed this season couldn’t get any better, we were doused with a big old heaping of “Faith.” Despite a serious lack of Jamie, Episode 207 was my favorite episode to date, giving further proof that Caitriona Balfe is seriously THE. BEST. ACTRESS. IMAGINABLE.  Now, let’s … More Outlander Superlatives: Episode 207 – “Faith”

Outlander Superlatives: Episode 203, Useful Occupations and Deceptions

I’ve made a useful occupation of obsessing over Jamie Fraser for several years now, and episode 203 of Outlander, “Useful Occupations and Deceptions,” gave me even more material to swoon about.

Outlander Superlatives: Episode 202, Not in Scotland Anymore

Outlander’s episode title hit the nail on the head this week: we are definitely not in Scotland anymore. (Yeesh.
