It’s a day we’ve all been waiting for — season 2 of Outlander begins this week! Oh, and other stuff is happening this week, too!

Need a quick refresher on how season 1 ended? Battered, bruised and scared from their dealings with Black Jack Randall (who was trampled by cows), Jamie and Clare are unexpectedly expecting. With Murtagh, they head to France to try to stop Bonnie Prince Charlie from his ill-fated attempt to re-claim the Scottish throne awhile ends with the bloody Battle of Culloden. Yeah, there’s a lot on the horizon this season!

Starz is also starting up a new series called The Girlfriend Experience. Steven Soderbergh produces this series inspired by his film of the same name. Riley Keough (Elvis’s granddaughter and best known for Mad Max: Fury Road) plays a call girl who offers extra services in New York.

Fear the Walking Dead is back. Zzzzzzzzzzzz….oh where was I? Yeah, I didn’t like this series but ratings were good and so AMC ordered up more episodes (15 this season instead of 6). This second season will be split into 2 chunks. It’ll be interesting to see the ratings for this second season when it’s up against Game of Thrones in a few weeks.
