I completely agree about the use of flashbacks and the time spent showing us Claire's life in the 1940s - if we didn't see what she was leaving behind her whole journey wouldn't have the same weight to it that it does. They're really doing a great job of showing how torn she is.
Tobias Menzias has been fantastic at playing these two distinct roles--and in both cases he has been a far cry from the floppy fish on GoT I knew him as! ;) (Sad that they will probably never include him on that show again, blech--but he has found better things).
LOL my thoughts exactly! It's great to see him with more to do in Outlander but do you really think they won't bring him back in GoT at all? I thought/hoped they'd show what happened to him and the Blackfish at some point...
