Rule #2-No Politics, religion or anything above a G level.

I recommend Season 1, Episode 1 .... it gives the base for the series and it sets the tone .... it would be better to take the time to look at the entire first season .... each episode builds toward the next

call it my hearing, call it having very little aptitude for understanding most foreign accents, I don't know about anyone else but I have trouble understanding much of the dialogue in Outlander .... figuring out how to turn "Close Captioning" on has really has made watching the program more enjoyable

Only two episodes in and my sentiments exactly!
I had to listen carefully and even then missed a few words but managed to 'get the picture' !

I'm two episodes into season three and am as enthusiastic about Outlander as I was after watching the first episode. I love this series and luckily don't have any difficulty understanding the dialogue.

Not that it's necessarily related, I got hearing aids about six months ago that feature a bluetooth connection to the TV audio. It's made a huge difference in my viewing pleasure. I used to need closed captioning all the time; now I never do. And, I think Paige, my cat, is happier, too, not having to listen to that infernal device along with me.

You're not alone. Close captioning is a good idea!
