I know Roger said something about what happens if Buck dies does he (Roger) exist then?

It was a silly comment.  If Roger had thought about it, he knew that Buck disappeared in 1780 and was presumed dead, and had already fathered  Roger’s  ancestor Jeremiah by then.  Roger knows that the reason Buck disappeared in 1780 is because he time traveled to Roger and Bree.  All that happened in a timeline that existed because if actions prior to Buck traveling to 1739.  So his dying in 1739 would have no bearing on Roger’s existence.

Agreed.  I think Roger was just freaking out and getting his bearings.  It was just one of those funny thoughts we tend to have when we're all out of sorts.

LOL! my whole thought was - Wait! Who the hell is this Buck dude and how the hell is he related to Roger?!!!

The show goes away for like 200 years and I forget who's who and what's the what.

That’s how I feel about the show too. I’m so glad this forum exists because when I’m watching the episodes and can’t remember something I know someone here will explain it perfectly.

I sometimes wish I had waited to watch the series until it was done with so I could binge watch and actually remember the important parts that occurred earlier.

One of the (MANY) joys of retirement is having the time to watch all the previous seasons of a show whenever a new season is dropped.  Bosch, Lincoln Lawyer, Outlander . . . all improve with subsequent watches!!!

I accidently read the book thread - and though it may have spoiled me -- it also helped explain what the hell is going on!

I think sometimes the show assumes all viewers are also readers of the books too.

The Recap pages for Outlander on TV Tropes Wiki used to be filled in soon after airing, like most popular shows, and now it seems like if I don't make them it doesn't get done.
