All, the series has been really good after only two episodes. The books are thousands of times better! Glad I found them.

Agreeing the books are so much better, but then. . . the visuals are awfully nice on the series!

For those of us without Starz, how can we ever see the series?

The musical score is hauntingly beautiful.

Happygal, I think that you can watch past episodes online at starz.com/originals/outlander.

All..I came across a cute statement while reading about the Scottish Independence Referendum vote. Apparently, when some Scots are asked what's under their kilts, the sat "The future of Scotland."

That's a cute one, teathyme!

I heard that some will be voting for Scotland's independence on the 18th- that should be interesting, if they get it. They are a hearty lot!

I have the first book about half read and am really enjoying it.

happygal, I watched the pilot on YouTube- it was free at the time. I don't know if they have or will add other episodes, but you can rent them online. I found the rent to be too expensive for my budget. YMMV.

The scenery, the music, the acting is all very enjoyable! I must agree that the book is better written, though.

I loved the books, but imagined Jamie differently. However, the actor playing Jamie is just fine! I think the story line is moving very slowly, maybe because I know the books. Anyway, I am enjoying it!

To Rowan72 - Frank did not travel back in time. The person Claire meets is Frank's gr-gr-gr-grandfather (I don't know how many greats), who Frank strongly resembles (and is played by the same actor). In the scenes when Frank is discussing his family genealogy, he talks about his ancestor "Black Jack".

Thank you, Luma2 -- that had been bugging me, too, since wow, is Frank ever different from "Blackjack"!! Great acting, I must say.

For those interested you can download the theme song from iTunes. I hope they release a soundtrack available on CD.
