    • Trivia
      According to Ronald D. Moore (the TV Series developer), his crew decided to keep the Gaelic words instead of translating them to English. This maintained the first person narrative by showing Claire's inability to understand the Gaelic. This idea was suggested by producer David Brown, who said he's seen something similar in Skin Deep (1998), a foreign alternative movie starring the actor and singer Gustavo Goulart.
    • Goofs
      In a few episodes, characters say"OK." An American term that didn't come into use until the 19th Century.
    • Crazy credits
      The opening song changes from season to season to reflect what's happening in the story line. In the first half of Season 2 (which is set in France), part of the lyrics are in French. In the second half of Season 2 (which is mostly about preparing for war), there is a militaristic drum roll added to the opening song. During Season 3, there are tribal drums added because much of the season is set in the West Indies. In Season 4, bluegrass fiddle and banjos are added, plus some of the lyrics are sung with a Southern accent because the season is set mostly in America.

    Eyes glued to TV
    Ultimately one of my top favorites. Diana Gabaldon is my favorite author. She keeps the authenticity of the era as does the show. Fantastic idea and storyline. I don't normally like narrative in shows, but it plays in nicely too the show.

    Packed full of intrigue, treason, excitement and adventure. Stories within stories, yet each storyline ties in to the main storyline.

    Excellent array of characters and well played by an amazing cast. This show stays pretty true to the books.

    I hope and pray this never gets canceled. It only lost 1 star in my opinion because each season doesn't come fast enough.
