Claire Beauchamp Randall, a nurse in World War II, is mysteriously transported back in time to Scotland in 1743. There, she meets a dashing Highland warrior and is drawn into an epic rebellion. Moore (the TV series’ creator), her crew decided to keep the Gaelic lyrics rather than translate them into English. This preserved the first-person narrative while showing Claire’s inability to understand Gaelic.

The second half of season 2 (which is mostly about preparing for war) has a militaristic drum roll added to the opening theme. Season 3 has added tribal drums, as much of the season is set in the West Indies. Season 4 features bluegrass fiddle and banjos, and some of the lyrics are sung in a Southern accent, as the season is set primarily in America.

I loved the entire series, and I really did!
I’ve never read the Outlander books, so I didn’t really know what to expect. I initially thought it was a show aimed at women only, but I was wrong. This show has something for everyone, and I’m so glad I finally gave it a chance, as it has become one of my favorite shows! The only negative thing I can say about it is that season 6 really wasn’t that good, and that’s coming from a fan.
