Outlander fans screamed the answer to their televisions the other night on Jeopardy. It’s not the first time the books have made an appearance in the show.

Outlander made another appearance on Jeopardy earlier this week. Fans screamed the answer (well, more like question), which was all about Diana Gabaldon since it was in the category “She Created Them.” The question (well, answer, since this is Jeopardy) included Jamie Fraser this time, unlike previous times when Claire has been the clue to help give the question.

It’s certainly not the first time Outlander fans have been excited to see their book series make it as one of the answers in the game show. Over the years, fans have answered with “Outlander,” “Diana Gabaldon,” and more. In fact, sometimes, just knowledge from the series has helped answer some of the questions about history in the game show series.

One of the more recent appearances was back in January, when the official Outlander Twitter feed shared a clip, knowing that everyone else would have had the right answer immediately. The clues were Colum MacKenzie and Claire Randall, along with the term “1991 novel,” making it clear it was all about the first book. Other novels have been included in the answer to help get the question, including “Drums of Autumn” and “Written In My Own Heart’s Blood.”

Back in 2016, Jeopardy for the timing for an Outlander-inspired question perfectly. It was a mixture of book and TV show, with the answer “What is Outlander?” needed. The question came up on World Outlander Day in 2016, which fans couldn’t help but comment on.
