I am a man who likes this show.
To perhaps reel in you, a lost man or woman in search for parcels of inspirations hidden in vast seas of entertainment, I'd like to say this show is good for either sexes but you need to have an appreciation for history, a bit of empathy and willingness to forgo (during viewing) modern notions of morality. There are scenes here that might make an insecure man feel like Outlander is a feminist revenge story. And there scenes where women might get mutually offended. These are fools and biased to menial thinking. If you are not a fool, you will appreciate this.
This show explores many aspects of history, the one we know, the one we don't, and one that could have been. It does this playfully well with the help of fantasy, great characters and great writing. The emotions in some of the scenes are so tangible it can be hard to watch, but of course it is always worth it.
Apart from some few episodes where directing and writing felt alittle uninspired, the overall quality is reliable without any deep lows. Well, fine, the writing of 1-2 characters are so stereotypical and flat they seem like they were copy-and-pasted. Luckily, these are represented by capable and likeable actors.
I have not seen through the third season, but so far I can't say it looks like it's getting worse. This show is great for fans of history, great characters, tartan, non-sappy romances, the occasional injection of madness and morbidity, bagpipes and that general feeling of being on the highlands that resides in every man, woman and child. I ken you will find this show very braw.
