Outlander (2014) - Full Season 01 - Set

I love, love, love Outlander, I am hopelessly hooked as is my adult granddaughter so of course I had to buy the series. Excellent quality, both video and audio are crystal clear and I would absolutely recommend buying Outlander season one for any and all Outlander fan including yourself. However, I would advise anyone who has only read the books and not actually seen Outlander on Starz, that there’s quite a bit of strong adult content both sexual and language in the TV series. When I was looking to buy this myself, some of reviewer’s said they had no idea there was such strong adult Content and that if they had, they would have never purchased it. I feel, as does my adult granddaughter, that all scenes including the adult content are very professionally filmed and performed by the actors. Outlander is truly a very beautiful time travel love story, written by Diana Gabaldon. Starz, with the help of all the amazing actors, has brought all her wonderful characters to life.

Let's face it, Starz Outlander is simply the best show on television. I know Game of Thrones gets all the press, but that series has absolutely nothing on Outlander and pales by comparison in terms of compelling story telling. The incredibly real and human character portrayals of Claire and Jaime by Caitriona Balfe and Sam Heughan leave you by turns enthralled, elated, emotionally drained and amazed as the story unfolds. What's not to like?But back to this package, as I said -- if you get Outlander you need to get this very special BluRay package of it's first season. It is magnificent in it's presentation, packaging, internal photography displays and overflowing extras that come with it. The deleted scenes alone will give you deeper insights into how the executive producer Ronald Moore thought through every detail of bringing these books by Diana Gabaldon to life. If you aren't a fan of this series or think it is just OK, then maybe I'd pass in favor of a cheaper set somewhere perhaps, but to those of us who "get" Outlander this is to my knowledge the best it gets in terms of a Season 1 package that captures the magic appropriately.

Outlander is one of the best series on television today. The source material, Diana Gabaldon's series of novels, is phenomenal. The production values are exceptional. Setting, scenery, writing, costuming, languages- they're all done with an incredible authenticity and tremendous amount of research. The acting is phenomenal. The last two episodes, in particular, are Emmy worthy, even though they weren't nominated. Tobias Menzies and Sam Heughan give performances of a lifetime and should have been recognized and honored for those performances. Caitriona Balfe, as Claire, is a vision of a feminist- the woman who can have it all. She is strong, and tender; intelligent, and headstrong; competent in her life's vocation, yet able to acknowledge the beauty of strength in her male counterparts (even if the "Bloody Scots" irritate her!).This box set provides a great memento of 20 years of waiting for Outlander to come to film. Every piece of it is beautiful and breathtaking. Having the Bear McCreary's soundtrack is such a bonus! I was able to get this on massive discount around Christmas, so if you can wait for a sale, do so. But if you can't wait, it's definitely worth it.

I read all of the Outlander series years ago. My mom had the first three books and gave them to me to read. I was HOOKED. I impatiently awaited the next book as they were released and ran to the bookstore to purchase them immediately. The characters and plot are so engaging that I couldn't put the books down. I read for hours and hours every day. When Starz released the series, I was ecstatic ! I didn't get to see any of the episodes but the first few because I couldn't afford satellite service. What I LOVE LOVE LOVE about this series is that every little detail in the book is present in the episodes. The production is flawless and the characters in the books are portrayed just as I'd imagined them. If You're a fan of Historical Drama,Action on the Battlefield, and Romance...then I suggest you explore this fantastic series. You will not be disappointed.

My mom is a die hard Outlander fan and she cried. it was so pretty. Loved it. Would like more seasons

This was a wonderful addition to my Blu Ray collections.
