Outlander
Oh yes, we have to start with Outlander. This epic love story takes us through many time periods, and gives us a look at what marriage really means. It’s time to start it all from the beginning. While you won’t get through all six and a half seasons in one night, you’ll be able to get through a good chunk of the first season…and once you start, you won’t want to start.

While on her second honeymoon in Scotland with husband Frank Randall, she falls through time and finds herself in 1743 Scotland.
