Outlander season 8 is finally here, and you’re going to want to watch it so you don’t miss any of the show’s final season.

Outlander’s final season will see Claire (Caitríona Balfe) and Jamie (Sam Heughan) go on “a heart-wrenching journey” as they return to Fraser’s Ridge after leaving the Revolutionary War and are “met by new arrivals and changes to their community made during their years away,” according to a synopsis for the show. Fraser’s Ridge is now “a thriving settlement,” that has been doing just fine “without the Frasers or their influence now for some time.”

“The Frasers soon learn that leaving the war behind is not as easy as they believed and are soon confronted with the question of what they are willing to sacrifice for the place they call home,” according to the series synopsis, “and more importantly, what they would sacrifice to stay together.”
