The second half of the debut season of Outlanderâa historical romantic time-travel fantasy based on the bestselling novel series by Diana Gabaldonâpicks up on a cliffhanger as heroine Claire (Caitriona Balfe), a 20th-century British woman in 18th-century Scotland, finds herself at the mercy of brutal British soldier Black Jack Randall (Tobias Menzies), the cruel ancestor of Claire's gentle 20th-century husband, while Claire's young 18th-century spouse Jamie (Sam Heughan) arrives to the rescue. But this is not the kind of historical romance where damsels in distress are always saved by swashbuckling heroes. Claire is brave, smart, and bold, a woman who speaks her mind and acts upon her convictions, bringing her 20th-century knowledge of medicine and healing to people. Naturally, this makes her stand out, and even gets her branded as a witch and put on trial in one episode. When Jamie is captured by the British, Claire sets out to find him, returning his rescue favor by launching her own within a British prison. The Starz-aired Outlander boasts vivid characters, a rich sense of 18th-century culture, and stories that are full of adventure, romance, and political intrigue, while also featuring strong performances, excellent production values, and well-written scripts. Compiling all eight episodes from the 2015 second half of the debut season, extras include a behind-the-scenes featurette, podcasts, and a gag reel (exclusive to the Blu-ray edition are an extended episode, a set tour with Gabaldon, a cast and crew table read, deleted scenes, and a booklet). Highly recommended. (S. Axmaker) Copyright Video Librarian Reviews 2015.
