Story
Claire Beauchamp Randall, a nurse in World War II, mysteriously travels back in time to Scotland in 1743. There she meets a dashing Highland warrior and is drawn into an epic rebellion. Moore (the developer of the television series), his team decided to keep the Gaelic words rather than translate them into English. This maintained the first-person narrative by showing Claire’s inability to understand Gaelic.
The opening song changes from season to season to reflect what is happening in the plot
This idea came from producer David Brown, who said he saw something similar in Skin Deep (1998), a foreign alternative film starring actor and singer Gustavo Goulart. In some episodes, the characters say “OK,” an American term that didn’t come into use until the 19th century. In the first half of the second season (which is set in France), some of the song’s lyrics are in French. In the second half of season 2 (which is mostly about preparations for war), a militaristic drum roll is added to the opening song.

In season 3, tribal drums are added, as much of the season is set in the West Indies. In season 4, bluegrass fiddle and banjos are added, and some lyrics are sung in a Southern accent, as most of the season is set in America.

I binge-watched the entire series and absolutely loved it!
I’ve never read the Outlander books, so I didn’t really know what to expect. I originally thought the show was just for women, but I was totally wrong. This show has something for everyone, and I’m so glad I finally gave it a chance, because it’s become one of my favorite shows! The only negative thing I have to say is that season 6 really wasn’t that good, and that’s coming from a fan.
I practically had to force myself to watch it and even fast-forwarded some episodes
