OMG the episode this weekend was so intense. Tobias Menzies plays the PERFECT Jack Randall. He really is a monster. I loved the flashback of Claire shaving Frank with the same blade. I couldn't watch all of the episode the first time around because the flogging scene was just too horrifying. I am very squeamish and seeing the skin on his back just hanging there was way too much for me. I did end up watching it a second time and could actually watch and really hear what was going on, but man was it rough. I remember thinking that Capt Jack was only going to get worse and now I'm nervous for what else he has in store for us later on down the road.

Outlander Episode 6 Spoilers
I thought the end was absolute perfection and rewatched the scene with Jamie and Claire about 15 times. I remember when I got to the part in the books where we find out that Jamie was a virgin and I sent SnShne an email at midnight losing my mind over all of it. And next week?? I seriously cannot wait for the wedding and everything that comes along with it. I've seen several people on tumblr breaking down the fast parts from the preview for next week and it sends me into this crazy place of fangirling that I didn't know was even in me.
Oh, and Dougal is great too. I think the casting has been spectacular.
I really love this series so far. I didn't know what to expect, but I think it has been perfect and I can't wait for more!
AND they announced that Season 2 is going to follow Dragonfly in Amber through both time periods. I don't know that I can handle it! The end of that book was so heart breaking.

Re: Outlander Episode 6 Spoilers
I don't think he makes a fantastic Frank, but wow, he does BJR justice. I closed my eyes for most of the flogging scene. I think it was important that it was there, but I just couldn't watch it.
But wait, how many episodes are there? The preview said there was only two more. I thought there was 16? Is says 2015 for the the second half. I would really hate it if there were only 8 episodes. That's short, even by premium channel standards!

I didn't mind most of the changes and I think I liked the changes they made in Claire and Jamie's scene. I hope they don't change that she's drunk as a skunk in the next episode. I love her drunk conversation with the fly.

I hate that Dougal was basically compelled to be there, that doesn't make SENSE that he can then just walk away with Claire. But whatever. I didn't mind that they had Randall tell Claire instead of Dougal, it worked.
Also, there was a guy slightly behind Dougal at the flashback that they showed several times, that I thought they might make Brian? But he was not at ALL right physically, so I'm hoping not.
I did like the J/C scene, they did it as well as can be expected without Claire's internal dialogue. And the scene where C storms past Dougal and swipes the whiskey was priceless.
I'm nervous for the wedding... I hope it lives up to everyone's wild expectations

One of my wine buddies is watching the series, and he is enjoying it so far. He hasn't read the books, but that hasn't seemed to lessen his enjoyment so far.
Or maybe he just knows what's good for him and is keeping his mouth shut.
