Looks good from the little snippets I could see. Could they speed them up a bit more ?
I hate that in all previews. My brain can't get the images from my eyes fast enough to process.
I am going to have to get used to Claire's accent though.
When is this suppose to air again? Do we know yet?
** duh, never mind it said Summer 2014 at the end. I am having problems seeing the screen well right now. The morning sun is bright and the clip seems dark.

I agree. I am not going to expect a total copy of the book, which is impossible anyway. I am just glad there is something on TV I actually want to watch for a change.
I think if they can get the essence right at least the rest I will process different anyway as I don't read in videos. Hard to explain but its not like a movie to me, more internal and personal. Watching something I am more a bystander. So I never really have those high expectations. I just want the essence of the story, of Claire and Jamie and all that.
The actors seem capable so that's positive.
From this, it looks like they are trying to follow the books pretty closely.
"At Friday's news conference, Diana revealed that she will be making a cameo appearance on the show. She's been given two lines to say in one scene. Not much else was said about Diana's part but I'm very excited to see that the production is keeping her involved with the show. She is given all the scripts to read in advance and so far she hasn't noticed anything really significant missing."
But then, after more than twenty years, I'm just happy to see Jamie and Claire come to life. Like Atunah, I am really excited about this. I never lost hope that some day it would happen. I just wasn't sure if it would be in my lifetime.
Yes, it's going to be a series. I'm putting Starz on my Mom's satellite when it comes out. I'd rather pay her the few extra dollars a month than $90 a month to reinstall satellite at my house.
I just hope they're going to do it all in one go and not drag it out over two or three summers. We've had to wait too long in between books as it is. Too bad Netflix and Starz parted company or Netflix would eventually have it.
Saw the tailer ("The Disappearance") via OutlanderCommunity.com webpage and then on my tv via YouTube (in HD). All I can say is "wow". The background scenes of Scotland was SO amazing on my HD TV! I can't wait until I am able to purchase this series on blu ray! I might also buy it in digital format just so I can watch it anywhere I have wifi connection...yes, I know a bit crazy.
I am coming to this series with realistic expectations, but some people are going down right crazy with their level of expectations. I also can't help but blush or roll my eyes at some of the conversations people have on the characters/actors. I'm sorry but this isn't a porno...we are all adults, and we should have a better handle on our hormones by now.
I am SO excited about this. Diana G. posts all the news about the series on her Facebook page and Aug. 9 is circled on my calendar. The Outlander series inspired my interest in Scottish history, which led to my own novels, so they hold a special place for me.
Starz came up with the best tag line: "What if your future was the past?"
I've loved everything I've seen or read about the production so far. I think it's going to be amazing. And bonus for fans of the series, book 8 comes out in June! I wish I had time to reread the first 7 books.
I only read the first 4 so far. Now this series will cover book 1, right? Do we know? And if that is so and it is a huge success it could maybe go for 8 seasons?

I haven't seen anything about that. DG could presumably have given them Book 8 ahead of time so it could be included in the series. Sixteen weeks could cover each book in two episodes.
I haven't heard how long each episode is going to be, either.
ETA: Ignore me. The official website says Season 1.
