All I Want is...
Thought I'd bring a little humor to the awesome discussion that's been happening in the comments of our last video. Everyone has a different opinion regarding the adaptation of Diana Gabaldon's Outlander series on Starz...and EVERY opinion is welcomed on this blog, as long as it isn't a personal attack of any kind. We are all different...and life would be pretty boring if we all agreed 100% of the time. I respect the hell out of each and every one of you for loving this life-altering story...and for taking the time to voice your opinions here at My Outlander Purgatory. ❤️

Don't Jump the Shark, Screw the Pooch: Diana Gabaldon Explained!
This is a FASCINATING read from Herself, Diana Gabaldon, regarding her use of the term "jump the shark" in reference to Leghair's annoying return to the Outlander series on Starz in episode 8.
I have one thing to say:
I KNEW IT!!!!!
I said "This is a woman who has a zillion degrees! She's not sitting home watching television on a nightly basis! She didn't really mean "jump the shark!"
Sooooo sassenachs, I wanted to pass this along. It's a MUST READ if you've at all pondered Herself's commentary about the reappearance of that bitchy little trollop we call Laoghaire. :)

6/22 UPDATE: I'm so sorry, y'all. Tracey and I had a family emergency this week so I wasn't able to pick a winner on Monday. Our mom, affectionately known to our Outlander buds as PattzR, fell and broke her elbow on Friday night. Last night she underwent a full elbow replacement, and it's been a very rough time for our family. I will be picking the winner tomorrow morning and will announce shortly thereafter. THANK YOU SO MUCH for your patience and understanding!!!!!
