Chronology
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.
In a few episodes, characters say “OK”
This idea was suggested by producer David Brown, who said he had seen something similar in Skin Deep (1998), a foreign alternative film starring actor and singer Gustavo Goulart. ; An American term that only came into use in the 19th century.

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

The first two seasons were amazing
I couldn’t take my eyes off the show. The music, sets, and characters were perfect. However, it took a huge nosedive after season three and it became really boring. Brianna and Rodger are really annoying and Brianna in particular is sometimes hard to watch.
So I’ve stopped watching the show
.It’s really disappointing because it was such a great show. I watched season 4 and I still watch season 5 but it just became clear that it would never get its magic back. I’m not sure if it’s the same story as the book but I just did the books and I think I’m going to read them instead.
