- More than two decades after publishing her first novel, Diana Gabaldon's bestselling "Outlander" series is making it to the small screen. She joins the "CBS This Morning" co-hosts with the stars of the TV series, Sam Heughan and Caitriona Balfe.
Diana did a wonderful job of remaining classy while pissing on the stupid questions ♥
Diana seems to be pissy about interview questions ....wonder if she does it on purpose or just her personality. I’ve heard her insult Sam and try to make a joke of it. Weird weird.
I agree. That interviewer in front of Diana is just so rude.
@@totaloutlanderobsession8013 I think it is her personality. She is very direct. I'm sure she gets asked a lot of dumb questions over and over.
I don't think I've ever seen Sam look better in an interview. Absolutely perfect looking.
I think it's rude of that interviewer lady to express curiosity about what's under Sam's skirt, while she doesn't even know him. Like bordering sexual intimidation. If anyone asked that of a lady they would think it's rude, men have feelings too!
Skirt? SKIRT? As a Scot I may be precious, but a kilt is not a skirt!
I do agree with you though. Were it a man asking those questions of a woman people would be in uproar, and quite rightly so. Show some respect!
Clara Andriessen 100% agree
Totally agree
Gayle comes across in this interview as an absolute idiot if you ask me. The whole thing is pretty uncomfortable, and I love that Diana Gabaldon is a bit short or seemingly irritated with some of the questions. No you can’t compare Game of Thrones to Outlander! They are Both great shows but thats as far as similarities go. Don’t even get me started about Gayle bringing up what under Sams kilt.... how unprofessional and inappropriate.
Clara Andriessen I cringed when she did that. Yes it was very inappropriate and if the roles had been reversed, the actor a woman and the interviewer a man, they would probably have gotten complaints.
The thing I found most fascinating about the Gabeldon books is the science of early health as it is compared to contemporary healthcare in her stories, and I NEVER hear anyone ask the author about this aspect of her writing. To me it's one of the biggest parts of her story.
👍👍👍
I can’t believe she said “look under your kilt” how rude. If a man said that to a women about her skirt there would have been outrage. Learn some class.
I had just been told to watch Outlander and boy oh boy am I loving this show, I cannot stop watching it hours every night two or three episodes a night, the acting is incredible I love Claire and Jaime, but also I love learning about the history! the details of this show is amazing and I just would like to say Thank You to the entire cast to the amazing author of such a great story and everyone involved. this show just takes me away!
Similar experience. 👆This interview occurred many years before I got hooked tho. I’m going to Scotland soon to see some filming sights and the highlands. Some things are just in your DNA. Appreciating all things Outlander.
The show goes downhill with each season.
@@bobnunyabiznz4917не погоджуюсь. Кожний сезон розкриває якусь іншу сторону їхнього життя, герої стають старшими, сім'я Фрейзер росте, тому акценти ставляться інакше. Мені всі епізоди сподобались, але я, як і сам Джеймі, дуже сумую за тим наївним і благородним хлопцем, яким він був раніше
"I can't see under the kilt when I am at home" Seriously, I cringed. That is so inappropriate and embarrassing but he handled that comment well.
+Kaylin Lambert God, I thought I was the only one! And this is not the first time that Sam has been asked this. I don't know why female interviewers think it's ok to say that. If it was a male interviewer saying "I can't see under the dress when I'm at home" there would be complete uproar. It's not ok to say it to women, it's not ok to say it to a man. It's sexual harassment.
So true. And I think he's a little uncomfortable in his sex symbol status, but handles it well.
AnitaBlake0117.
Yes! Disgusting!
Yea I cringed also. Horrible comment.
If a male interviewer were to speak to a female guest in the same manner that this female host is speaking to Sam Heughan, the internet would demand blood, and he would likely lose his job. It made me very uncomfortable.
AsheleyG I agree! Gail was embarrassing.
I was just thinking the same thing and I would suspect the female interviewers would be the first to be outraged
Made me extremely uncomfortable too
Very well said! I agree 100%.
AsheleyG it was gross...
I love that they have so much chemistry on screen that really matters. I love the show they've done so good.
He is very handsome but his humility and down to earth personality is most attractive. I am shocked these ladies objectified him with calling him “smokin’ hot, yes, I would like you to throw me over your shoulder, sexy hair, kilt comments.” So wrong - what a double standard in our society. Shameful.
It's not a story of our day! It was the life style of the 18th century good grief!!! Get a grip on yourself!
@Sam Roland Heughan Thank you! Best wishes from Kansas!
I couldn’t believe that one of the presenters did so little research that she kept mispronouncing Catriona’s name. Glad it was eventually corrected
Jamie from Doctor Who and Jamie from Outlander are two of my very favorite characters and knowing one is inspired by the other makes me incredibly happy
I find outlander is way better series, than game of thrones, great story and true to history
Me too ! And I have seen GOT before Outlander. But Outlander is More !
The author is pretty darn attractive in her own rite.
She's 62...she looks fantastic!
MrMuttly55 An exotic beauty to be sure.
MrMuttly55 She is brilliant!
mrmutty
not really
From watching the show it's clear that she really likes men, not just sexually, but as people, with real flaws and real virtues. It's refreshing.
Gayle didn’t even pronounce Caitriona’s name correctly the first two times she says it. I’m very unimpressed with her in general. I also agree with another commenter that she should never nave brought up what is or isn’t under the kilt. Very unprofessional. This interview and the three people doing it failed miserably. 👎 Diana Gabaldon seems somewhat irritated with some of their questions, and I find that hilarious.
It feels like they put all the energy into sexualizing Sam and just ignored Caitriona even though she's the main lead.
agreed
The story is told through the eyes of the femail character, Claire. This is how Diana wrote the story. This does not make Cait the main lead. Both Sam and Cait carry the story. Without either of them there would be k story.
Jamie is alot better looking then Jon Snow
50/50 hahahah love them both
Ehh-!!!is'the:-) short::
He's taller and definitely better body
Sam is sexier than Kit... but... they're both hot and great actors.
Yes!!
I cringed when she said Cait’s name wrong and I cringed so hard my skin fell off when she talked about looking up Sam’s kilt like that was beyond inappropriate and awkward. It’s very personal thing and it’s not ok at all
Love Diana's answers. Intelligent and not falling for gratuitous sex banter with interviewer
I've followed the book series since it first came out 20yrs ago. So happy they finally made it into a show. Thanks everyone.
Caitriona is beyond beautiful. 😍
stunning
Nice to see the girls commenting here calling out how inappropriate the woman on the interview panel were being, given the outrage there would be if the roles were reversed.
Truly a show about the ultimate love story.
Poor Sam, they're so awkward how they comment on his appearance. We know he's gorgeous, give him some breathing room!
Sam and Caitriona, you make a perfect Jamie and Claire. I can't wait!
Gabaldon writes the best love scenes EVER!
Oh my god his accent. To die for!!!!!
This interview was horrible. Love this show- love Cait & Sam!!❤️
Love, love love this cast, book series and show!!! Oh no not until August????
This series is beyond words!!! I´ve just watched some episodes from season 1 and from the very first I became a staunch fan. I don´t know if I will ever be able to read the novel´s volumes , as I have too many reading prioritities in line. Anyway, I often prefer the dramatization of novels than the written works themselves, which, I consider more as starting points for the dramatization pieces, which can have endless and varied versions to be enjoyed in differetn decades by different actors, approaches, etc. However, I intend to make a posting on my edublogs about the series and this author, after reading some good articles on her work. From what I´ve seen so far in the series, she is incredibly gifted in my opinion, and I guess the written work must be even more substantial in many aspects.
Even better than the TV series, imagine that?? 😂 Seriously, Diana is such a gifted author, who really does her research, that’s why it takes her years to finish each book. I read her books more than once & each time find something new.
Intrestlingly enough, the Scotsman from Doctor Who Jamie, played by actor Fraser Hines, who worked with the second Doctor Patrick Troughton, had a small role in Outlander, he was the Judge Clare went to see when her Jamie was in prison.
What a terrible interview. She doesn't even know their names.Way to do your research Gail.Why do you have this job?
ummm.. Gayle King.. BFFs with Oprah?
Lol, yeah Gail!
Thank you Dr Who! Otherwise we might not have Jamie.
amen!
My favorite show is Doctor Who and then Outlander.
Who was he in doctor who ? X
@Hayley it's an older episode of doctor who with a Scot. Character Jamie McCrimmon played by Frazer Hines with the second doctor and Hamish Wilson with the sixth
Michelle Arroyo thanks for the reply back x
I first saw Doctor Who's Jamie before I ever heard of Outlander, and I always felt like the author did. He was such an interesting and charming character. And now I'm obsessed with Outlander. So yes, thank you Doctor Who!!!
Game of thrones made it as a series because sci-fi fans don't care if something is completely non-historical and more disney than reality.
6 years after this cbs show it turns out that The Last Kingdom has been as faithful to Bernard Cornwell's fiction series as fiction to TV can be.
Outlander is spectacular none-the-less.
The man next to gail is a totally curmudgeonous tv head- what screwy body language. what i like is the fact that diana sees it what doesn't even flinch. as usual, Cait and Sam are totally cool and gracious.
I have not obsessed on any series... Movies ...Since star trek next generation. Battlestar Galactica...So well driven..
Beautifully filmed and adaptation
Fantastic books and television series - excellently written and beautifully acted! Can't wait for Season 4.
Lol when the clip of Jaimie saying do want me to throw you over my shoulder, and then in the studio someone yes! LoL epic
This two people are so cute together
the episode was perfect, I loved it.
Wonderful series I love it so much 😍
It would be nice to have them on again and maybe say their names correctly. (wGaAsIL) Out of respect watch an episode,recognize their talents and a little less meat market. It is one of the best series I have seen. A perfect time would be September for Season 3.
I really wish these interviewers would’ve handled this better. Diana, Sam, and Caitriona care about these characters and these stories so much, and the interviewers just reduced all of that to sexual innuendos and surface-level chit chat. Disappointed with how this was handled, but unfortunately not surprised.
Sam's still sexy as himself, in my opinion. I'm totally in love with his accent.
It is a graet serie Outlander also Caitriona Balfe is a beutiful and smart actress and woman
It's Caitriona! Not Katerina...ugh. I hate it when hosts don't bother to get people's names right.
It's actually pronounced Katrina, though. Try this website to get an audio of the famous Irish author Frank McCourt (he won a Pulitzer Prize for Angela's Ashes) pronouncing it:. www.babynamesofireland.com/catriona
Miz J
He pronounces it Kat-reena which is how English speakers in Ireland pronounce it. However, Gaelic speakers would not omit the 'o' in Caitríona. Kat-ree-uh-na is my take on it.
It's literally just Katrina. It's the Gaelic spelling of Katrina. Pronounced Katrina. It's that simple.
Sherzer
What do you mean "literally"? It's the same name but different language. Languages have these differences, unless you want to anglicize everything.
*****
Bang on - Sherzer shouldn't speak about what you don't know (that's from an Irish speaker)
o, Ron D. Moore produced dis? o, I'm gonna watch the FUCK outta this show now.
Complètement envoûtée par cette histoire d''amour incroyable portée à l'ecran par ces fabuleux acteurs et scenaristes j'ai lu et relu cette histoire passionnante j'attends avec impatience la partie 2 du tome 9 j'adore Outlander merci Diana Gabaldon 💝💫💫
That male interviewer looked totally bored, all I kept thinking how bloody ruded and so
not professional.
Incredible show!
I’m in love with the author
sadly I’ve only read the first one.really need to catch up with the rest
lex snow each book gets better and better! You will not regret moving forward in the series! Also, they are keepers just to reread! You will be amazed what you missed the first time around! Same with the tv series!
Sharon Richards yeah I really need to find time to read the rest
I have enjoyed every single moment.
Great interview! Thank you for sharing it!!
I love how Diana flexes her superiority XD
Old clip, but host should know the guests name.
Such double standards, imagine if Rose asked Caitriona if he could get a look up her skirt. The usual casual sexism in today's society, Tiresome. Ladies need to practise what they preach.
Claire just wonderously portrayed by actor caitroina balfe
I love this movie, omg!
The women on this show are full-on sexually harassing Sam and laughing about it. Disgusting. They should to be ashamed.
Better than game of thrones. ❤️❤️
When does the third season start
I don't agree with the comment of that The Game Of Thrones had anything to do with the launch of this Outlander, TV Show, I am convinced that the actors have so much to do with the success of the story. I did not watch the Game of Thrones, because the first episode just made me sick, it was not my taste - But these stories episodes that captivates my heart, my imagination my desires and its a noble culture of men who make love to their land as to their women. Its, the Jamie character and Murtah that gets the skin spikes of emotions. Eye- I the love of the (Scottish Gaelic) unknown and yet the ancient preserved language its a mystery. If we were to attribute some influence, I'll say the J.K Rolling Trip in the 3/4 train for the Young Schoolers of Hogwarts in Harry Potter did the historic act of captivating the eyes. Ron Weasley whole definition of Scottish descendants...noble, sexy, manly, playful, lover, etc...I want to say. That my mind and my body are processing the stories of the Outlander. This really reminds me of The Current Queen Elizabeth of England. Who had been a nurse in the Great World War and Great Lady who was not at all weak- but Strong Minded and Hands down for her country and her people. So, Only Actions speak for the truth. I enjoy Outlander.
Queen Elizabeth did not serve as a nurse in WWII. She was part of the motor pool brigade that repaired and serviced trucks for the ambulance service, a necessary and quite humble position, for which she received great respect and admiration from the working classes as well as the public at large.
Diana Gabaldon reminds me of George RR Martin in the way she talks. Their voices are a little bit croaky and even the laugh is similar.
They are friends actually lol
Oh my god, are they really? I see similarities in their stories.
Please add "closed captions".
I’m just waiting for all the seasons to come out then binge watch everything lol
Caitriona is very good looking and elegant woman
Excellent interview! Loved it!
Who is the grumpy old man on the interviewing team? He's sitting there with his arms crossed like this whole thing isn't worth his time, which is completely annoying. He didn't ask a single question. I'm not saying that an interviewer/reporter should enjoy the interviews he conducts, but this guy could be a bit more engaging.
That's the one and only Charlie Rose.
Trust me, if he had them at his roundtable on his own show, this would be a much, much more engaging interview on all sides.
Now I'm really disappointed that they didn't just let HIM conduct the interview. Thanks for the answer!
Listened 2 all of the audio books 4 free on TH-cam, after watching the 1st season even Moby
----> 5:09, Sam I'm sure You fulfill everyone's fantasies? Aye?!
Excellent Interview. Loved all the books. The adaptation has been great so far.
I also felt some comments were inappropriate.
Great show 2 watch doing QUARANTINE I love it
That accent! Dreamy.
Sam!❤
That question about what is under Sam's kilt is so embarassing. Even I felt uncomfortable. I feel sorry for Sam who had to give an answer to that. If it is the other way round, I mean a man asking something similar to a woman they wouldn't even consider a question like that. I think there should be the same level of respect for both sides
I think that Sam loves it!
Amei esse casal muito apaixonado jemei freser e clarie o temporada Antlander mas linda que eu assisti obrigado por o canal da Netflix obrigado diretores da Netflix por trazer uma história tão linda e também emocionante para nossa família que vocês diretores que continue assim sempre obrigado por esses mês ter ficado comigo em minha casa agora vou esperar ansiosamente pelo as outra temporada Antlander acontinuaçao da 5 temporada Antlander estarei esperando por vocês diretores da Netflix muito obrigado
Diana, you are amazing.
Not enough Caitriona.
Is season 2 still they first book?
+Melicia No, the first book ends around the same way the season 1 ends. The second season is about their time in France, which is the second book.
If it tks too long to finish the books and the tv series... we ll have to travel through the stones.. 🙄 to the future...
So they should do a tv show in 8 books?
The first one!
The first novel I read
As a member of clan donald we all have quarter pounders under our kilts
I wish Sam didn't use wigs now. His hair is so gorgeous!
Which seasons did he wear a wig? Looks like season 1&2 he had his own hair?
He started loosing hair from dying it every two weeks. It’s unrealistic expectations.
Caitriona Balfe's name is pronounced "cuh tree nuh" -- I never nit pick these type of interview mistakes but you just think that the interviewer would have done enough research and commitment to be able to pronounce this actors name correctly. Seems unprofessional.
Yeah I agree completely. Any interviewer should know how to pronounce the name of their interviewee - it's interview 101. So unprofessional and disrespectful to get their name wrong. Bah!
Just don't mess up the last season of this show the way GOT did.
I wish they were a more proper with Sam. All they cared about was their list for him.
Gail is very inappropriate in this clip
Gail...she is inappropriate in everything. How did she ever get on air? Oh yeah, Oprah’s best friend.
We ALL do Gayle!!!
Uhhhhmmm, Gayle? It's not Caterina, it's Caitriona.
Both ladies did it but Gayle kept saying it over and over. I cringed
@Sam Roland Heughan Eight years later and the world is still in love with the love story that carries over from one book to the next. Of course the two protagonists have a lot to do with it.
When the day after watching an episode you ask your friend: "Have you heard what happened to Claire and Jamie?" as if it had been on the news; that's when you know you are watching something powerful.
And the question goes to? 🐭🐒🦍or the 🦝?
The actor playing Jamie is really hot, but he looks kinda feminine here.
I thought that too, but I've come to the conclusion that maybe he is too clean? Haha
I agree!
Nephania Black unfortunately I feel that way too. He's much more masculine as Jamie, not as himself.
I don't wanna sound like a bitch, but this actor is not hot as himself. There are actors who are very charismatic, and they are lucky enough to play iconic characters that make them loved by many....and there are other actors who are not so charismatic themselves, but they are loved because of their amazing characters. The guy who plays Jamie belongs to the second category in my opinion.
Do you still feel the same as you did a year ago? I just wondered..
And firefly
Love this
Wow...three highly intelligent individuals interviewed by completely rude TV hosts who have a wonderful opportunity before them and dont take advantage of it and instead sexually harass Sam Heughan and mispronounce Caitriona's name. Diana seems sooo annoyed. Like, do some research for this kind of interview. LOL.
Man, Yes I do! 😁
Books were awesome, but season 2 if he kills randell, not only would her husband disappear but she would also, she would disappear from the timeline, because her husband is the one that brought her to the Stones.
The whole Doctor Who thing is strange. "TheHighlanders" the episode she refers to, hasn't existed since at least the 70's as all copies of the story where destroyed. So if she wrote the book after seeing it in the 90's she could tell the BBC where she saw it, so it could be returned to the archives.
maybe she went back in time :0
missysummertime Hee hee
missysummertime YOU WIN
fucking idiots this book was written in 1995
+sailormoony233 The first one was published in 1992.
diana said people who share their lives for 50 years!! is that a clue? they have 30 more years together after claire returns to jamie? hmmmmm
What a huge lot of stupid questions. The kilt question and comments? Give me a break.
