Is Outlander losing its lustre?: a thread 🧡
The numbers are in and the latest season of Outlander has been the least watched since the programme began in 2014. #Outlander
scottishdailyexpress.co.uk/tv/outlander-l…
Outlander Season 6 has been an emotional rollercoaster – with births, deaths, murders, bombshells and everything in between.

We also had an absolute shocker of a cliffhanger - and most of us are desperate for #outlanderseason7
Despite the twists and turns, fans having been turning off in droves!

Season 6 had an average audience of just 520,000 per episode in the USA, according to the Neilson Ratings.

That compares with 810,000 for season 5 and a whopping 1.51 million in season 3. #Outlander
The final episode of Outlander season 6 "I am Not Alone" had 440,000 viewers, compared to 640,000 for the season opener πŸ“Ί #outlander
One reason may have been a change in channel.

The popular historical drama TV series moved away from Prime and to StarzPlay UK - the show's original home back in the US.

Now to watch it in the UK, you need to pay more on top of your Amazon subscription πŸ“Ί
One fan said: "Gutted to find out that #Outlander is now on Starzplay and no longer part of Amazon Prime.

"Feels pretty cheeky asking watchers to pay *another* subscription for a show that’s been available as part of one subscription for years."

Despite fans already halfway through their journeys with Claire (@CatrionaBalfe) and Jamie (@SamHeughan), the #Outlander rating definitely seems to be slipping.
We reported that the highest viewed season (which was season three) also took the crown for the top viewed episodes. πŸ‘‘

And Outlander fans agreed, recalling some of their favourite episodes during the third season, with 'A.Malcolm' taking the top spot with 1.72 million viewers.
Many Outlander fans however remain loyal to their favourite TV show, with bookworms also declaring "there is no such thing as droughtlander" with the stories also at their fingertips whilst they wait patiently for season 7. #Outlander πŸ“š
In fact, Outlander has been all the buzz lately as it also welcomes new cast member William Ransom as Sam Heughan's secret son (played by Canadian Lost in Space actor Charles Vandervaart.) #Outlander scottishdailyexpress.co.uk/tv/outlander-e…
Were you disappointed by season 7 of Outlander? #Outlander
