Outlander: Blood of My Blood

Full of twists and turns. The cinematography is fantastic and captures all the background of the historical locations. Casting creates continuity background to Jamie and Clare. Other historical characters are also introduced. The tension of 2 clans interacting is done in a creative and mischievous way. My wife and have already watched the opening 2 episodes twice!

Many of these actors are known to me, so right out of gate I'm in a serene place, relaxed and intrigued at the least. Good to see the ever reliable Tony Curran in front of the camera again. He's probably the most underrated thespian out of Scotland. Harriet Slater always delivers and Miss Corfield is ever a worthy addition. I'm of course familiar with her work and as far as the first two episodes she shined the brightest. The pacing a little uneven but that's knit-picking compared to this incredible ensemble. I'm very much looking forward to the remaining episodes.

The costumes. The cinematography. The landscapes giving main character vibes. The accents.

I love the new cast. It's good to see the characters, some of which we could only imagine come to life on the screen.

These stories are so well developed by the creators.

The behind the scenes looks with the actors is an added bonus.

Scratch the time traveling, as a viewer, this is time traveling in a sense. To find out all the history. Seeing characters that are in Outlander original to new characters that have gone and past shaped the storyline. This prequel goes deep, even with accents. As a fan of outlander, this is mind blowing story lines.

Outlander: Blood of My Blood was even better than I was hoping for. It's much more than just another love story. My brother and I just got caught up on the original series and was floored by how much I enjoyed it. It is so well written and acted that you really come to care for these characters and what happens to them. The same goes for this prequel, you can tell they put a lot of effort in putting out the best show they can. It's also beautifully shot, everything from the cinematography to the costumes are excellent. The overall production value on this as good as anything on tv. If you're a fan of the original and you haven't started watching this yet then do yourself a favor and go watch as soon as possible.
