Any Outlander fans? [View all]

I came to the TV show only a couple of years ago. I was immediately grabbed by the story, the writing, the acting, the scenery, the production...and went on to read the books.
I became such a fan of Sam Heughan's portrayal of his character--James Alexander Malcom MacKenzie Fraser -- that I promised myself if he ever did return to his theatre roots, I'd go see him. I did--twice--see him in Macbeth last fall at the RSC in Stratford -upon-Avon.
If you're a fan, you are aware the final season 8 dropped streaming on STARZ at midnight EST last night. I stayed up to watch it and was sorely disappointed, primarily because of the Faith lived scenario.
If anyone else has been following the production/books, I'd be curious to know what you think.
