Season 1

In 1945, former World War II nurse Claire Randall and her husband Frank are visiting Inverness, Scotland. Exploring the standing stones at Craigh na Dun, Claire faints after she touches the highest stone, and awakes to find herself in the middle of what appears to be a skirmish between Redcoats and rebel Scottish Highlanders. Rescued from an attack by Frank's sinister double, Redcoat Captain Jonathan "Black Jack" Randall, she uses her medical training to help the injured Scotsman Jamie Fraser. Claire realizes that Randall is Frank's ancestor, and that she seems to have traveled backward in time to 1743. Her skills earn her a place at Castle Leoch as a healer, but she is a veritable prisoner of Clan MacKenzie and cannot travel to the stones to try to return to her own time. Claire and Jamie get closer, and she comes to understand that the Scotsmen are covertly collecting funds for the Jacobite army. Knowing from history that their cause is destined to fail and many Highlanders will die, Claire tries to warn them off. She learns that Randall and Jamie have a bitter history, and Jamie marries Claire to protect her from the sadistic Randall. Claire and Jamie realize they have feelings for each other, but she is still torn thinking about Frank. In 1945, Frank is losing hope that he will find Claire, just as she is delighting in her new marriage to Jamie in the past. Both finally ready to accept that they are lost to each other, circumstance brings Frank and Claire to the standing stones, two centuries apart. They hear each other calling through time, but before Claire can touch the stones she is captured again by Randall's men.

Jamie saves Claire from a violent rape at Randall's hands, but the dynamic of their marriage is tested and the rescue stirs up trouble among Clan MacKenzie. Claire and her friend Geillis Duncan, a herbalist having an affair with Dougal MacKenzie and pregnant with his child, are arrested on suspicion of witchcraft, thanks in no small part to the machinations of Laoghaire, a young woman whom Jamie had rejected. Despite an impassioned defense by Ned Gowan, the parade of false witnesses is overpowering and Claire and Geillis are found guilty. Before Jamie can fight his way out of the courtroom with his wife, Geillis confesses in dramatic fashion to exonerate Claire. As Geillis is dragged off to be burned at the stake, Claire realizes that her friend is actually a traveler from the future like herself. Claire tells Jamie her entire fantastic story of time travel. Given his blessing to finally try to travel back though the stones, Claire instead decides to stay with Jamie. He takes her to his family home of Lallybroch, where he is reunited with his strong willed sister Jenny. Jamie is captured by the Redcoats, and is eventually placed in Wentworth Prison awaiting execution. Randall arrives and delights in subjecting Jamie to physical torture. Claire infiltrates the prison to save Jamie, but when Randall catches her in the attempt, Jamie agrees to submit to rape by Randall in exchange for her freedom. Before she leaves the prison, Claire "curses" Randall with the date of his death. Murtagh's plan to rescue Jamie is successful, but Jamie remains emotionally tortured by his ordeal. Claire finally breaks through to a suicidal Jamie, and they set sail for safety in France, where Claire hopes to connect with Charles Stuart and somehow prevent the catastrophic Battle of Culloden. Before they depart, Claire reveals to Jamie that she is pregnant.

Season 2

Having relocated to Paris, Claire and Jamie attempt to prevent the Jacobite risings by subverting the funds that King Louis XV of France is providing to the pretender Charles Stuart.[5]

Development and production

In July 2012, it was reported that Sony Pictures Television had secured the rights to Gabaldon's Outlander series, with Moore attached to develop the project and Jim Kohlberg (Story Mining and Supply Co) producing.[7] Sony Pictures Television closed a deal with Starz in November 2012,[8] and a writing staff under Moore was hired in April 2013.[9] In June 2013, Starz picked up the Outlander project for a 16-episode order,[10] and in August 2013 it was announced that John Dahl would be directing the first two episodes of the series.[11] Starz CEO Chris Albrecht later said that he had greenlighted several genre projects, including Outlander, in an effort to shift the network's new series development toward "audiences that were being underserved" and shows that would "drive a real fervent fan base that then becomes the kind of advocacy group for the shows themselves".[12] Calling it "a different kind of show than has ever been on, in my memory", Albrecht believed that Outlander's combination of fantasy, action, a strong central romance and a feminist focus would set it apart.[12]

On August 15, 2014, after only the pilot episode had aired, the network renewed the series for a second season of at least 13 episodes, based on the second book in Gabaldon's series, Dragonfly in Amber.[13]

Writing

Creator and executive producer Moore said of the pilot, "There's a lot of things we did in the first 30 to 40 minutes that aren't in the book or are compilations of things that happened in the book." He also emphasized that he did not want to present the time-travel elements in a traditional special effects-laden science fiction manner.[14] Describing the adaptation of season 1 as "straightforward", Moore explained, "it was always kind of clear what the basic structure was: Claire’s trying to get home, then she meets this guy, now she’s falling in love, now she has a conflict, will she go home. You lay it out in a very linear fashion."[15] Commenting on the darker tone of the first season's second half, he said, "the show becomes more complicated and the emotional journey more wrenching".[16]

Of how closely the plot of season 2 follows the source novel Dragonfly in Amber, Moore commented:

The book is a more complicated structure in terms of how Diana [Gabaldon] wrote it ... So it was not as easy an adaptation as the first season was ... Book 2 is just a more complex book. It’s laid out very differently, as a result it took more wrangling to try to figure out how to translate this particular story into our season. There were more complications, there were more characters ... It was a bigger task. The thing that gives me the most comfort is that Diana likes it a lot. She had said, 'Oh, I really liked the way you did it. it was a difficult plot, I know, but I think you really found the essence of it. You really found the through line that really defines what this part of the journey is.' ... It’s not going to be a literal adaptation because I don’t think that’s possible with the second book ... But I think it’s very much the same story, the major characters are all represented, the major scenes are all represented, and it still gets you to all the same places you want to go.[15]

Gabaldon is a paid consultant on the TV production.[17] When asked in June 2015 about the adaptation of season 1, she said, "I think they did condense it very effectively ... I ended up getting most of the things that I felt strongly about in there. There were only a few instances where the most important stuff in my opinion didn't get in."[18] In March 2015, she said of the scripts for season 2, "The Parisian stuff is very good, and in fact I’m deeply impressed by the outlines I’ve seen ... I think they’ve done a wonderful job of pulling out the most important plot elements and arranging them in a convincing way."[19]

Casting

Season 1

On July 9, 2013, it was announced that Sam Heughan was cast as Jamie Fraser, the male lead.[20] Tobias Menzies was the second actor cast on August 8 in the dual roles of Frank and Jonathan Randall,[21] and on September 4 Graham McTavish and Gary Lewis were added to the cast as the brothers MacKenzie.[22] On September 11, 2013, it was announced that Irish actress Caitriona Balfe had been cast to play the protagonist Claire Beauchamp Randall.[23] The series later added Lotte Verbeek as Geillis Duncan and Laura Donnelly as Jamie's sister Jenny in October 2013.[24]

In December 2013, Simon Callow was cast in the supporting role of the Duke of Sandringham,[25][26] and Bill Paterson was cast as lawyer Ned Gowan in June 2014.[27][28] Entertainment Weekly reported in January 2015 that Steven Cree would portray Ian Murray.[29] Author Gabaldon has a cameo as Iona MacTavish in the August 2014 episode "The Gathering".[30] In August 2014 it was announced that Frazer Hines had been cast in the role of a prison warden in an episode to air in 2015. From 1966 to 1969, Hines had portrayed the Doctor Who character Jamie McCrimmon, who Gabaldon has said inspired the setting of the Outlander series and the character Jamie Fraser.[31]

Season 2

In June 2015, the series cast Andrew Gower as the Jacobite pretender Prince Charles Edward Stuart;[32] Robert Cavanah as Jamie’s Scottish cousin Jared, a wine merchant and Jacobite living in Paris;[33] Margaux Châtelier as Annalise de Marillac, Jamie's French ex-lover;[34] and Laurence Dobiesz as Alex Randall, Black Jack's younger–and gentler–brother.[35] Other cast added for season 2 include Romann Berrux as the French pickpocket Fergus,[32] Rosie Day as the baronet's daughter Mary Hawkins,[36] Stanley Weber as Le Comte St. Germain,[37] Dominique Pinon as healer Master Raymond,[32] Marc Duret as French Minister of Finance Joseph Duverney,[34] Frances de la Tour as Mother Hildegarde,[38] and Audrey Brisson as Sister Angelique.[39] In July 2015, Lionel Lingelser was cast as King Louis XV of France.[40] Moore revealed June 2015 that Verbeek would be returning in the role of Geillis.[41] Richard Rankin was cast as Roger Wakefield in December 2015,[42] while Sophie Skelton was chosen to portray Brianna Randall, Claire and Jamie's daughter, in January 2016.[43]

Filming

In July 2013, United Kingdom Chancellor of the Exchequer George Osborne confirmed that the production would benefit from the Creative Sector Tax Relief program implemented in the UK in 2012, which extends film tax reliefs to high-end television productions.[44] The Scottish government also agreed to help pay for the conversion of a warehouse complex on the outskirts of Cumbernauld in North Lanarkshire to a studio for filming.[45] Principal photography began on location in Scotland in September 2013.[46] The Cumbernauld studios were used for on set filming, with location shoots taking place at Doune Castle, Stirling; mills in East Linton, East Lothian; Newtonmore in the Scottish Highlands; Rothiemurchus Forest, Aviemore; quarries near Bathgate, West Lothian and Aberfoyle, Stirling.[27] Other locations include Loch Rannoch in the Highlands and Falkland and Culross in Fife.[46]

Filming for season 2 began in April 2015, to air in spring 2016.[47] The primary setting for the season is Paris, which Moore explained is being recreated using other locations. Some interiors are being filmed in the show's Scotland soundstages, Prague will be used for Parisian street scenes and the Palace of Versailles, and some palaces in the south of England which have French rooms and architecture will be used as Parisian settings and part of Versailles.[15] Moore noted that season 2 of Outlander "will look completely different than season 1" and have a "richer, more dynamic kind of visual palette".[15] With the change of setting from Scotland to France, he said that "visually you’ve moved from the heavy woods and stone of season 1 into the finery of the Parisian apartments".[15] He explained:

Everything about Paris is so completely different, especially the costumes ... It’s the most stylish city in the world during this time. A lot more money. A lot of finery. Scotland is featuring a lot of heavy wools and more organic colors. In Paris everyone wants to be a peacock. You’ve got a much wider palette of textiles and colors and styles than you did in Scotland. It’s a completely different world. And that kind of goes across the board for all the departments ... There were really no sets or pieces of sets that we could use for Paris that we’d used for Scotland ... There are carriages, there are servants with livery, there are props and furniture. It’s completely different. It’s a whole new show.[15]

Music

The music is composed by Bear McCreary. The title song is an adaption of Robert Louis Stevenson's poem Sing me a Song of a Lad that is Gone, set to the tune of the Scottish folk song "The Skye Boat Song".[48] For season two, the second verse of the opening music is sung in French, to match the setting of season two storyline.[49]

Broadcast

Outlander premiered in the U.S. on August 9, 2014.[1][2] Its first 8 episodes aired through September, and then the remaining 8 episodes of season 1 resumed in April 2015.[50][51] The season 1 finale episode aired on May 30, 2015.[52]

Outlander debuted in Australia on SoHo on August 14, 2014,[53] and began airing in Canada on Showcase on August 24, 2014.[54] The series also premiered on October 21, 2014, in Ireland.[55] In the United Kingdom, it was acquired by Amazon Prime Instant Video,[56] where it premiered on March 26, 2015.[57] In April 2015, The Herald reported that emails leaked in the Sony Pictures Entertainment hack suggested that the broadcast delay in the UK may have been due to sensitivity over the September 2014 Scottish independence referendum.[58]

Reception

Critical response

The first season scored 73 out of 100 on Metacritic based on 34 reviews, which were "generally favorable",[59] while the review aggregator website Rotten Tomatoes reports a 91% "certified fresh" critics rating with an average rating of 7.8/10 based on 54 reviews. The website consensus reads: "Outlander is a unique, satisfying adaptation of its source material, brought to life by lush scenery and potent chemistry between its leads".[60]

The Huffington Post called the first episode "... A masterpiece of impressive depth ... It is amazing!"[61] Entertainment Weekly gave the premiere an A- rating, writing that it was "sexy and smart and stirring".[2] Matt Zoller Seitz of New York magazine also praised the series, calling it "defiantly its own thing: part romance-novel fantasy, part-time-travel story, and part wartime drama (set across two time periods)".[62] Sonia Saraiya of The A.V. Club gave the first six episodes an A, writing that it "does for 1743 Scotland what Downton Abbey does for 1912 England", and adding that "Outlander succeeds admirably ... it refuses to sit comfortably in any genre."[63]

British reception was more mixed. In the first UK review, Siobhan Synnot of The Scotsman said "There has not been such a proud display of tartanalia[64] since the opening of the 2014 Commonwealth Games".[65] Alastair McKay of The Evening Standard quoted Saraiya's comparison with Downton Abbey, adding "[The comparison] is entirely correct. It is magical-mystical heuchter-teuchter cobblers."[66] Euan Ferguson of The Observer called it "gorgeous drivel"[67] and Thomas Batten of The Guardian stated "If you love the scenery, shifting allegiances, and palace intrigue of [Game of Thrones] but find yourself wishing the pace were a little slower and that the sex scenes were filmed in a more pretentious manner with lots of slow pans and softer lighting, here’s your show."[68] Graeme Virtue noted "the rather languid pace of the opening episodes" but praised the show's "rare acknowledgment of the female gaze" in its treatment of sex scenes.[69] The Daily Telegraph also made the Game of Thrones comparison,[70] while the The Independent stated "...yes, it's a time-travelling, wish-fulfilment fantasy but it's done with such flair and attention to detail that it's impossible not to hop on board for the ride."[71]

The second season received positive reviews from critics. On Metacritic, the season has a score of 85 out of 100 based on 11 reviews, indicating "universal acclaim".[72] On Rotten Tomatoes, it reports a 100% "certified fresh" rating with an average rating of 8.5/10 based on 22 reviews. The website consensus reads: "Outlander returns for a second addictive season of mystery and sweeping romance as Claire and Jamie take on Paris."[73] Based on five episodes for review, Marah Eakin of The A.V. Club gave it a perfect "A" grade and wrote, "It's not just well-written and lovely to look at. It's downright immersive. ... Outlander feels important–even moreso in its second season."[74]

Viewership
