Outlander Season 6
The fifth season of Outlander sees a continuation of Claire and Jamie’s fight to protect those they love, as they navigate the trials and tribulations of life in colonial America. Establishing a home in the New World is by no means an easy task, particularly in the wild backcountry of North Carolina – and perhaps most significantly – during a period of dramatic political upheaval. The Frasers strive to flourish within a society which, as Claire knows all too well, is unwittingly marching towards Revolution, as members of the elite ruling classes struggle to stifle an alarming undercurrent of unrest, trigged by the Regulator Movement, and to maintain order in the Province. Against this backdrop, which soon heralds the birth of the new American nation, Claire and Jamie have built a home together at Fraser’s Ridge. Jamie must now defend this home – established on land granted to him by the Crown – despite the fact that this new mantle of responsibility sees him pitted against his godfather, Murtagh Fitzgibbons, a leader of the Regulator Rebellion. Jamie is forced to hide the true nature of his relationship with Murtagh from Governor Tryon, who has ordered Jamie to put an end to the unrest sweeping North Carolina. Claire, in turn, seeks to put her own skills and medical expertise to use in keeping her family together and safe from harm. Coupled with her knowledge of the future, she decides that she must be daring and have the courage to take risks, whatever the consequences may be… Meanwhile, Brianna and Roger MacKenzie struggle to find their respective places in this world: striving to chase away the shadow cast over their lives by Stephen Bonnet, which continues to loom over them, as they raise their son in this brave new world. For the Frasers and their family, “home” is more than simply a site in which they live, it is the place in which they are laying the foundations for the rest of their lives…

What else do people expect as the show is becoming more focused on the issues in America? I actually loved the slowness of this. I love how they brought in mental health more and the issues of a past that haunts others! Still very beautifully done!

This is the best series since , well I can’t remember.. I love the dynamics of the whole crew. Such an amazing story

Season 6 was a shorter season but full of the same adventures of Claire and Jamie. I adore Claire and this series. Cannot wait to watch the blooper reels as they are usually wildly entertaining! Cannot wait for season 7!

I will admit that I have yet to see Season 6 as I have to wait for each season to come out on DVD before I can watch. BUT, the series taken as a whole is simply magnificent. Frankly, it has it all – romance, intrigue, political violence, history, time travel, drama, comedy, wonderful characters & stunning cinematography. IMO, the cinematography is of equal splendor & quality as such big-budget, full-length Hollywood movies as ‘Out of Africa’ & ‘Dances with Wolves’.The characters are all well-rounded, believable & supremely acted by an excellent cast, particularly Catriona Balfe (Claire Beauchamp-Randall-Fraser/”Sassenach”) & Sam Heughan (Jamie Fraser) whose on-screen chemistry crackles with a nearly insane level of intensity. Additionally, Tobias Menzies, in the dual roles of 20th Century Frank Randall & 18th Century Captain Jonathan “Blackjack” Randall, exhibits a wonderful depth of ability to believably swing from the loving, mild-mannered Frank to the deliciously evil & sadistic “Blackjack” Randall.The whole time-traveling aspect of the series could have very easily come off as cheesy in lesser hands but the incredible effort & care the series puts into recreating period accuracy, right down to the dresses and even replicating ancient tartan patterns & colors instead of using the modern ones, makes one feel like one really IS transported 200 years into the past. It’s details like this that give the entire production a nearly unrivaled richness & feel of authenticity. Probably the only other series that I can think of that came close to the same production level as ‘Outlander’ was ‘Downton Abbey’.As for those criticizing Claire & her daughter, Bri, for “constantly being too 20th century & PC”, I have to ask, why wouldn’t they be? After all, they both lived many years in the 20th century prior to being transported to the 1700’s by the stones at Craigh Na Dun. Those 20th century ideas, phrases & sensibilities would be ingrained in them & would reflexively come out whether they wanted them to, or not.Lastly, I absolutely enjoy this series because I can relate to Claire & Jamie’s story…proud Scots being chased from their land by tyranny & oppression after the Jacobite Rising of 1745 ended in defeat at the Battle of Culloden. I’m a descendant of Clan MacKenzie & Clan MacFarlane. My ancestors made their home around the shores of the beautiful Loch Lomond but were forced to flee to the Scots-Irish Ulster Plantation in Northern Ireland after Culloden and, from there, to the New World where they fought & shed their blood during the American Revolution, just as Jamie & Claire do in the ‘Outlander’ series. In a strange way, I feel as though this series gives me an opportunity to “meet” my ancestors and, as a history & ancestry geek, that’s a priceless feeling.Loch sloy!

With an exception of making Claire a bit more human. I waited until the whole season was released (unlike some) this is my second favorite season after the first. All of the actors have developed into their characters, brilliantly acted, the short season just left me wanting next season ASAP.There might not be enough action for some, but it’s true to the books and remember the Revolution is on the horizon.JAMMF forever ??

A historic sci-fi story, who could ask for more?! The story is great, but you can just read the books if story is all you cared about (shout out to Diana Gabaldon). The show, however, is magnificent. You can tell the production behind the show really loves whay they do, because of all the care and detail they put into it. The result is a visual masterpiece, a beautifully told story, with amazing actors against gorgeous backdrops like Scotland, France, and Eastern US in the 1700s and the 1960s -70s. So well made. Season 6 is a bit darker than Seasons 1-5, but darker times call for darker plots. I highly recommend this series and all of its seasons.
