MOP VIDEO: Episode 708: Turning Points

 

 Outlander “Turning Points” Season 7 Episode 708 recap! My Outlander Purgatory's Carol and Tracey are back to recap the FINALE episode of the front half of Season 7 of Outlander, the Starz series based on Diana Gabaldon's best-selling book series. Join us as we break down every moment, including the HUGE NEWS that WE’RE GOING BACK TO SCOTLAND and all the deets on how YOU can join us; why Claire’s level of bad assery in rescuing Jamie was top three of the series; why Jamie’s reference to cutting off his finger actually had a purpose (and why Carol loved this whole scene); what Bree has in common with Peg Bundy; why Roger and Buck are the superheroes of time travel we never knew we needed; whether or not they maybe should have given the whole rescue thing a few more minutes of planning; why Rob Cameron should just rob a bank if he’s so hard up for cash; why Rollo got off easy for eating the goose grease; why we are worrit about Ian and Rachel (and it doesn’t have to do with danger); how Pee Wee Herman (RIP Paul Reubens 😢) helps us try to get at the Ian Problem (let us know in the comments if you agree there’s a problem or if you think we’re off our rocker!); why Nice Guy Benedict Arnold threw Claire; why Sam must have been super happy about that Morgan back performance; why the Emmys should have a best adapted teleplay category because the Outlander writers would sweep; why we’re confused about terms of surrender for a battle (and why William can’t just sneak to another regiment); why the civility of a Redcoat coming into the rebel camp is very impressive; why we LOVEDLOVEDLOVED the Fraser cousins and their entire scene (RIP Angus the Bruce); how Jamie and Simon represented the division that so many families went through at that time; how Granny Gates really had to twist Jamie’s arm to get him to take Angus the Bruce back to Scotland; how Rachel made us SOOOOO happy (cause we’re heading to Valley Forge in the back half of season 7!); why Sophie gets a slow golf clap for the goodbye scene; the reappearance of ARCH BUG!!; why those sweeping shots of the ships on the water are EVERYTHING; why Outlander doesn’t get better than the last minute of the episode, and MUCH MUCH MORE!!

MOP VIDEO: Ep 707 "A Practical Guide for Time-Travelers"



Outlander “A Practical Guide for Time-Travelers” Season 7 Episode 707 recap! My Outlander Purgatory's Carol and Tracey are back to recap the penultimate episode of the front half of Season 7 of Outlander, the Starz series based on Diana Gabaldon's best-selling book series. Join us as we break down every moment, including what we did during our time away (DON’T call it a vacation, lol); why Starz needs to make the episode titles shorter; why X does NOT mark the spot when it comes to Twitter; how hard it might have been for Claire to learn to write with a quill and ink (and how she created such a neat letter to Bree); how we had Roger and Bree’s chair growing up and what happened when Carol tried to sit in it; the identity of the nuckelavee (or BUCKelavee); a wee remembrance of Sinead O’Conner 😭; why the Tufty Club Easter egg is the PERFECT Easter egg; whether Diarmaid Murtagh got the role of Buck because of his last name (we say no, lol); why William is a sniveling little s**t and yet we still love him; how trying to keep the Jamie/Claire and Bree/Roger timelines straight is next to impossible; why Rob Cameron needs to read some Hints from Heloise for tips on being a good guest; why Jem and Mandy get a slow golf clap; how the fewer moments of Jamie and Claire are impacting first-time watchers; why Jamie talking fonts gets us all hot and bothered; why it was great hearing a mention of the Beefsteak; how every word out of Simon Fraser’s (aka Angus the Bruce) mouth is a riddle wrapped in enigma; Bree’s Take Your Buck to Work Day; Roger’s hotness in a kilt (and why he had the line of the episode); why we just CANNOT watch Roger and Bree get busy; why “In the Air Tonight” requires anyone making out to it pause at the drum solo; why we hope Bree and Roger at least changed the sheets for poor Uncle Buck; the return of BAD ASS IAN!!; how William became Jamie Fraser on the battlefield; why wee Mandy is the VIP of this episode; why Willie is the love child of Lord John and Jamie; whether or not James Alexander Malcolm Mackenzie Fraser is DEAD ON THE BATTLEFIELD; and MUCH MUCH MORE!!
