He works out twice a day (heavy workout). That’s not enough calories for a man who works out. That’s disordered eating. He’s obsessed with his body/weight, and it impacts what he eats.

How do you know this? I've clicked on a video of one of his appearances and he straight up said he now eats meat. He said he tried to keep his diet as clean as possible to fuel his muscle growth. I don't think any of us accurately know how many calories this man consumes in a day.

Google brought up a recent interview where he discussed his diet.

I’ve been following him for many years—long before his social media was curated. The guy has issues.

This video?

Seems like he's sharing a general idea of typical foods he eats. You don't get a body like his by eating only tomato soup, spinach, and salmon. Who cares what he eats? He looks great! We all have issues

It was so blah I turned it off before it was over.

NP and book reader here. I’m not liking this particular change. Not one bit. If I remember correctly, she does test the ether on herself in the books, before using it on her patients. But she doesn’t use it as a coping mechanism. This just seems so out of character for her.

This.

She's supposed to be brave and perhaps even more courageous and resilient than Jamie. Knocking herself out with homemade ether because of bad dreams? This doesn't make sense for Claire. And it doesn't add to the story unless they are trying to give the couple a side plot on how her secret impacts their marriage? Maybe she will have a near death experience? It's dumb.

If the plot is moving towards the war, then perhaps stay focused on that? It would be interesting for Roger the history professor to perhaps provide useful intel that steers things in the right direction.

I don’t see how the ether could be much of a secret. Jamie would have noticed Claire isn’t in bed when he wakes up and he’s bound to notice that she keeps sleeping in the surgery area.

That might happen in the next episode.

I read an interview with Caitriona explaining the plot line about her secret and that they will explore its impact on their marriage. Yawn.

The second episode was boring. The “sex” scene where they remain fully clothed and you just see kissing followed by noise was ridiculous. It feels like little house on the prairie.

Re: Marsali’s special baby - was that from the book?

[Anonymous]

Yes with henri. He is a dwarf.

I imagine sex scenes were hard with cait pregnant. The Native American women pushing themselves on Jamie was in the book too. It was hilarious..and that’s why he came home horny.

Anyone still bothering to watch?

It’s so boring. It’s almost like they want us to hate it.

Yes, I’m sure that was their mission. “Let’s do whatever we can do the audience hates every episode.”
It’s following the storyline from book 6. With only an 8 episode season, not everything could be included. Catriona being pregnant certainly impacted what they could do. Season 7 will have 16 episodes.

I watch it and love. Ian's story, told this past Sunday, was heartbreaking.

I like this season more than I did some of the others. Same for the books- some I loved and others I had a hard time finishing.

OMG what happened to this show?
It's so boring and everyone got so ugly.

Agreed!

They aged everyone too quickly. They assumed their popularity (which stemmed from steamy romance earned in the first two seasons) meant they had a legit drama series…but they were wrong. The show quickly became Little House on the Prairie with violence. Heck, even Little House had some beefcake!

I am convinced that “fans” merely hate watch now.

I don't. I love it. Great storylines and I've enjoyed watching the leads age.
