Sorry to butt in...I don't normally post here (MM is my "home" board) but I thought I'd share.
I know that most people know already that Outlander is being developed by Starz. We just found out that Diana signed contracts with Starz yesterday and the series will begin filming in Scotland in the fall (September, I think) and should begin airing in Spring 2014.

Ahhh, I can't wait that long! I'm almost finished with the 3rd book in the series right now and I just love, love, love these books. We will definitely be adding Starz to our Dish package!
I don't know how I feel about a screen adaptation. I just know it's going to fall short!
I think if they did it right, it could have lots of merits on its own. Those books are HUGE but still there are some scenes/scenerios, situations, I think there will be much more freedom to enhance and even make longer because it's a TV series.
