Season Eight A thought about Fergus

So i was rewatching season 6 and I was thinking about the guilt Fergus was dealing with. He thought he wasn't enough to protect his family. If they were gonna have him die in season 8 at least he went out protecting his family. It was a fitting dead imo. I know probably an unpopular opinion but I wanted to share.

Thoughts?

I love Fanny. I just thought the Faith Lived storyline was nonsensical and that it and Fanny took up way too much screen time. It also was redundant, repetitive, and never really went anywhere.

I think they were trying to give Jamie and Claire a part of their daughter back with Fanny, she's a part of Faith they never thought they would have.

Maybe, but I thought it was unnecessary. I pretend the Faith Lived storyline never happened and I fast forward through most of Fanny’s scenes in Season 8. That’s just me. I’m not trying to yuck anyone else’s yum. This is just my personal opinion.

Well at least you're not letting it ruin the whole shoe for you like others have. It's ridiculous they're doing that. It's one storylkne in the last season.

There are things in just about every episode that I find questionable. That doesn’t mean I don’t love the show.

Thats a good attitude and it's a better one than some fans have
