Underwhelming

Warning: Spoilers
Two episodes available and disappointed so far. So much potential to showcase a charming country, spectacular scenery and a couple of charismatic actors. But the locations are rushed, the banter is forced and the whole thing comes up short.

There are some spectacular images but could be far more time spent just taking in the unparalleled beauty. The banter between the two has its moments but it doesn't come across as natural. And it seems they cut down the locations to the bare minimum.

A stop in Edinburgh is a one course meal in one restaurant. A distillery tour is a quick visit in a peat bog and mainly them laying down in barley. The two have manly "competitions" that are just... underwhelming.

Hopefully they eventually hit their stride, but so far this is only for the most devoted Outlander fans, and even then you've likely got better options.
