Are you experiencing symptoms of Droughtlander? Signs may include: watching old Outlander episodes over and over, even though you’ve seen them a dozen times already; repeatedly whispering “Sassenach” under your breath in a Scottish brogue, much to your friends’ consternation; toting around one (or more) of author Diana Gabaldon’s books in your bag just to feel something.
Yes, the long wait for new episodes of the series — which stars Caitríona Balfe as English time-traveler Claire and Sam Heughan as her Highlander love, Jamie — can be downright maddening. But, thankfully, there’s some relief to be had. For starters, the first six seasons are streaming on Netflix. And if you’re thirsty for even more of the romance, adventure, and intrigue that Outlander provides, consider these nine shows a refreshing drink of water (or Scotch whisky — we won’t judge). Dive in and you’ll soon be saying, “What Droughtlander?...

In a chat with Radio Times, Maril said they followed the plot of the books, written by Diana Gabaldon.
She shared, “I’m kind of surprised by that because – we can’t always, but we try to follow the books as much as possible, and this really does follow the books. Jamie and Claire are always going to be our center of the wheel, but there are quite a few characters to service and Diana has done a great job of doing that throughout this book series,...

The latest round of Outlander spinoff casting includes an Easter Egg for a subset of the book-loyal fandom.
Starz on Wednesday announced the addition of four roles to the forthcoming prequel, Blood of My Blood. Among them: Watchmen‘s Sara Vickers in the part of Brian Fraser’s mother (and, therefore, Jamie Fraser’s grandmother). The character is a housekeeper in the Lovat household, which is good and all, but we’re super into how she’s also named after someone many devotees of author Diana Gabaldon will recognize: Davina Porter, who narrates the audiobook versions of Gabaldon’s Outlander book series.

Sam once told Esquire UK, “Diana Gabaldon [the writer-creator] actually revealed to me how the whole thing’s going to end.

In a universe that involves time travel, it seems like the door could certainly be open to the possibility, but considering this will be an original story not previously shared by author Diana Gabaldon, there’s no source material to reference for such Easter eggs. Blood of My Blood will chronicle the love stories between Claire’s parents Julia Moriston (Hermione Corfield) and Henry Beauchamp (Jeremy Irvine) in World War I England as well as Jamie’s parents Ellen MacKenzie (Harriet Slater) and Brian Fraser (Jamie Roy) in the 18th-century Scottish Highlands.

2023 was a year full of highs and lows for fans of “Outlander.” High: Their favorite romance epic returned for Season 7, Part 1 (which aired from June 16 to August 11) after more than a year-long drought. Low: But it just failed to receive any Golden Globe nominations on the morning of Monday, December 11. High: Starz officially green-lighted a prequel series titled “Outlander: Blood of My Blood,” to air in the near future. Low: But that meant the parent series would officially be ending with Season 8. Deep breaths, “Outlander” fans — we’ll all get through this together.
Voters of the Golden Globe association snubbed “Outlander” in the top Best Drama Series category, and its leading stars — Caitriona Balfe as Claire Fraser for Best Drama Actress and Sam Heughan as Jamie Fraser for Best Drama Actor — were skunked, too. So why was Season 7, Part 1 of “Outlander” not nominated at the 2024 Golden Globes?
