Once you've seen them, you'll never forget these Outlander episodes.
There is still a whole week before Outlander Season 7 premieres, and that last stretch feels the longest for fans of the historical drama series. Some try to distract themselves by reading Diana Gabaldon's original book series, others listen to the show's amazing soundtrack, and some revisit their favorite moments from the show (for a millionth time).
Just to make the wait a little less painful, we've prepared a list of five best episodes of Outlander, ranked by their IMDb score.
5. A. Malcolm
Season 3, Episode 6
IMDb score: 8.7/10
Featuring the couple's long-awaited reunion after decades apart, this episode turned out to be incredibly heartwarming. After the death of her husband in the 20th century, Claire returns to 18th-century Scotland to meet her true love, Jamie, who is now working as a printer under the name A. Malcolm.
4. The Wedding
Season 1, Episode 7
IMDb score: 8.8/10
Jamie marries Claire to protect her from Randall — the captain of the state troopers and an ancestor of her 20th-century husband. Although it is a marriage of convenience, both begin to realize their feelings for each other, making the episode an emotional rollercoaster.
3. Journeycake
Season 5, Episode 11
IMDb score: 8.9/10
As a revolution is brewing in the New World, Claire understands she and her family are no longer safe here, and Brianna and Roger are forced to decide whether they should stay in the American colonies or go back to the 1970s.
2. The Devil's Mark
Season 1, Episode 11
IMDb score: 9.2/10
Probably one of the most emotionally intense episodes, 'The Devil's Mark' features an incredible amount of tension and drama. While Claire and Geillis have to stand trial on suspicion of witchcraft, the protagonist learns that Geillis is also a time traveler and confesses her abilities to Jamie.
1. Dragonfly in Amber
Season 2, Episode 13
IMDb score: 9.5/10
According to fans, this is one of the best episodes in terms of writing and simply an enjoyable episode to watch. The action takes place in two points on the timeline: in 1968, where 50-year-old Claire tells her daughter about time travel and her origins, and in 1746, just before the Battle of Culloden, where Claire and Jamie make an important decision regarding their fate.
The first episode of Outlander Season 7 will air on Starz on June 16, 2023.
