‘Outlander’ Season 6 Preview
When we last saw the intrepid time-travelers of “Outlander,” Claire (Caitriona Balfe) had been kidnapped and raped by Lionel Brown’s (Ned Dennehy) gang of thugs. Jamie (Sam Heughan), Roger (Richard Rankin) and the rest of the clan saved her and slaughtered every last one of the Brown gang, though at what price because at the end of the episode, Lionel’s brother Richard (Chris Larkin) told Jamie that he will do what he must when the time comes.
When the show returns, the sixth season will be dramatizing the sixth book in Diana Gabaldon’s series, “A Breath of Snow and Ashes,” which chronicles the American colonies’ unrest and the Fraser family trying to keep their heads down between Jamie’s oath he swore to the British crown and wanting to fight for American independence in the Revolutionary War.
The Starz press release teases:
The sixth season of “Outlander” sees a continuation of Claire and Jamie’s fight to protect those they love, as they navigate the trials and tribulations of life in colonial America. Establishing a home in the New World is by no means an easy task, particularly in the wild backcountry of North Carolina – and perhaps most significantly – during a period of
dramatic political upheaval. The Frasers strive to maintain peace and flourish within a society, which – as Claire knows all too well – is unwittingly marching towards Revolution.Against this backdrop, which heralds the birth of the new American nation,
Claire and Jamie have built a home together at Fraser’s Ridge. They must now defend this home – established on land granted to them by the Crown – not only from external forces but also from the increasing strife and conflict in the community within their care. For the Frasers and their immediate family, then, “home” is more than simply a site in which they live, it is the place where they are laying the foundations for the rest of their
lives.If Season 4 asked, “What is home?” and Season 5 asked, “What are you willing to do to protect your home?” then Season 6 explores what happens when there is disharmony and division among the inhabitants of the home you’ve created: when you become an outsider, or an “outlander,” so to speak, marginalized and rejected in your
own home.
The premiere episode is titled “Echoes” and its description reads, “Jamie’s authority is tested when an old rival from Ardsmuir shows up to settle on the Ridge. Claire finds a new way to cope with the trauma of her assault by Lionel Brown.”
Episode two, airing on March 13, is titled “Allegiance” and its description reads, “Jamie struggles with his first request as Indian Agent. Roger presides over an unusual funeral. Marsali gives birth.
“Outlander” airs Sundays at 9 p.m. Eastern and Pacific times on Starz.
