Last night, for example, Caitriona Balfe made an appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live! in order to promote the new season. While there, she talked a little bit about Halloween in Ireland, the early experience of being a part of the series, and also a lot of travel that her character Claire does. We don’t think that there is necessarily a whole lot of new information in here; instead, it’s more of a primer for viewers to get on board the series who aren’t that aware of it yet. This is probably a good thing, given we’re not sure Kimmel has ever seen Outlander before and with that, would be totally lost with a deeper discussion.
Even though Caitriona hasn’t been able to do some of the same promo stops as some of her co-stars, we are rather happy to see that she got a spot on late-night TV!
Meanwhile, check out the link below with a rather fantastic interview that Sam Heughan, Sophie Skelton, and Richard Rankin gave on AM to DM by BuzzFeed News leading up to the premiere. The show’s host Saeed Jones has been a master of epic live-tweets revolving around the show, creating the hashtag #KiltDaddy in the process. This is a really fun interview! Jones recently watched a ton of the show so he is therefore so much more informed than many other people out there. The more interviews like this related to the show that we get, the happier we will be in the end.
