It only makes sense that the writers would want to throw in some surprises along the way and that it won’t be an entirely smooth ordeal for the two characters. Hopefully though, they are going to find a nice balance between putting them in danger and actually allowing them to further their goal.
This raises some questions about how season 2 will proceed and what might happen by the time it’s over, and it’s certainly possible that the end of the new season could have a major cliffhanger after things go wrong, and that things will move in a completely unexpected direction.
One thing is certain right now though – “Outlander” is a production with a lot of potential and the show can go a long way if its writers make clever use of some of the assets they have in the plot and premise.
On the other hand, the actual actors portraying the characters have been doing a fantastic job themselves and they have been getting lots of positive responses from all sides, so all they have to do is keep putting in the same quality of work and the show should end up an even more massive success in its second season.
