The music relies on movies for their full meaning. Why the sudden trend? Is it because audiences are becoming more appreciative of soundtracks? Or that film music is valued more highly in general?

What To Expect From Outlander Season One

Pardon me if I seem to be out of breath. Trust: I am panting. That said, I had to expend some of this pent up excited energy somehow. In the immortal words of Bart Simpson, ay caramba.

She already had plenty of them. And may I take a moment here to say EW. Who steals a vibrator? Dont you know where that thing has been?
