I keep saying it's so beautiful but it is! Certain things stuck in my kind, like that underwater scene (so many stunning shots in general throughout the season), and things like cutting from focusing in Lady Jane's mouth (beginning of ep 7) to the
decapitated-at-the
-mouth body of Mr Honey, the carpenter
. Also that final scene. Visually gorgeous. -

i'll add some elaborate thoughts on the first season in a bit but besides i agree it's immensely beautifully shot i just wanted to point out that also the dialogue is so well written… just an example
Crozier: As a trusted friend once put it, this place wants us dead.
Fitzjames: Who is this friend? Does he also write melodrama?
Crozier: Sir John, myself, Mr. Blanky and Mr. Reed. Only four of us at this table are arctic veterans. There'll be no melodramas here. Just live men or dead men.

i know…
and does Tobias ever disappoint? he's fantastic here, and in Outlander and Rome, even his brief appearances in GoT were rather memorable… well at least i always wanted his character to have a more sustainable role. such a great actor.

I never saw
Outlander
. GoT had a bunch of really good actors in smaller roles. Ciarán Hinds again…
Orson needs to see this series. It has not only these 2 from GoT but also 2 from
Chernobyl
. And I really like Kevin Guthrie too (
Dunkirk, The English Game
). Damn, the whole cast on this was top notch. -

Outlander really starts great, and Tobias is such an evil villain in it, but really well written with enough depth for me to actually grow to "love" his character even if i despise him in the show… bc he's the devil in person lol
as the show went on tho, i grew to kinda really get frustrated with the main protagonist, Claire. i don't think the writers really got her right. she increasingly comes off as obnoxious and really annoying and she gets worse and worse each season… maybe it's just me, but in the end i stopped watching Outlander altogether after the 4th season, bc my tolerance threshold was only that much to bear her any longer. lol the actress didn't really help either as she is really not good, kinda tryhard overacting. all other actors in the cast were fine. i really liked the other main protagonist, Jamie
, Claire's love interest, tho, and he was the only reason i kept on watching for a while. well, and for Tobias Menzies, too, but his character was written off after season 3 (if i remember correctly). and that's a real pity cuz, story-wise, Outlander really has potential, only the lead actress and character was too unbearable for me to stick with it.
and yep, Orson really should watch The Terror.

I enjoyed season one, but season two, not so much. I got bored after three or four episodes, and deleted it.
MAGA! FAFO!
