As the curtain slowly draws on the epic saga of Outlander, fans are bracing themselves for the bittersweet end of Claire and Jamie Fraser's journey. The show, which has captivated audiences for nearly a decade, will conclude with its eighth season, leaving behind a legacy of romance, drama, and time-traveling adventures.
