Outlander: Casting the TV Series

So, I'm gonna start off with a shameless plug (or two). I'm trying to be a published novelist and I'm blogging about it. Every so often, I write a "book analysis." It's when I take a book I just read and go over it. I examine it for what I believe the author did well and what I thought could've been done better. So I did it for Diana Gabaldon's book "Outlander." I thought I did it for the second in the series, "Dragonfly in Amber," but it appears I didn't. Judging by my Goodreads review, I guess I was just too fed up. Not too fed up to stop reading the series, though I have yet to start "Voyager," the third book in the series.

And not enough to be excited to see "Outlander" brought to life on my TV screen. A few months ago, Starz tapped Ron C. Moore to create a possible series based on Gabaldon's Outlander series. Earlier this month, the series received the green light.

You know what that means! Time to get really serious about casting speculation. Because we've all speculated on the chance this would happen. And I'm no different. So, I present to you my selections for the main characters of Outlander under the cut.

Smash: The Crash

Last time on “Smash:” Bombshell FINALLY opened! And the Hit List cast was invited for some reason! Ivy shone while Karen suffered from a bad case of heaving bosoms. Karen learned the truth about Jimmy and dumped him! Ivy learned about Derek and Karen and dumped him! Leo lives! Julia moved out! The Great Gatsby!

SMASH!

Smash: Another Opening, Another Show

Last time on “Smash:” Ivy went nude! Karen lost some songs and had a hissy fit! Sam quit Bombshell!

SMASH!

It’s Bombshell’s opening night! Well, the night before opening night. Ivy is nervous as she takes her final bow. She’s been refusing to read anything about her performance and everyone seems to be onboard with this.
