I want to love it. I want to feel like questions were answered and the story concluded in the best way possible.
and yet....damn that was a long conversation in bed. i almost feel like it was one of the longest conversations we've ever witnessed between Claire and Jamie, lol.
and wow did they spend a lot of time on good byes, maybe that was really for the fans because it was a long lead up to the battle.
and what kind of soldiers don't disarm a hostage in the first instance?
so here are my burning questions:
- were there folks out there who did NOT think the Highlander in S1 was Jamie? I mean, who TF else could it have been?
- why did we have to learn that Fanny could time-travel? did it bring ANYTHING to the rest of the story or the finale?
- why did we have to learn that Roger and Brianna's last kid wasn't a traveler? he was like the water, like Jamie? WHAT IS THE POINT?
- why did we have to see Claire bring that baby back to life, but we didn't see her do it with Jamie?
- if Roger and Ian both believed Jamie was dead, but Jamie never looked dead? LOL my husband was semi-watching with me and when Claire said Jamie was just resting, hubby goes, "oh he's DEAD? he's got a LOT of color for someone who's dead."
- what the hell is this online chatter about a time loop? like Claire, Jamie and everyone around them are stuck in a time loop because ghost-Jamie made more forget-me-nots bloom at the stone?
sometimes i hate the internet, LOL.
because if Claire healed Jamie I get it - it's the prophecy from the Indian woman, it would make sense that we saw Claire's trial-run on the baby, as well.
i don't know, i'm torn on this finale. I think it leaves the door open for MANY movies, spin offs, etc. but I don't think any story could be Claire/Jamie centric in those spin offs, you know?
