'Outlander' Season 5: Fans want more screen time for OG couple Claire and Jamie Fraser, here's an assurance they will get it

Season 5 of 'Outlander' will likely premiere early next year, and fans have put forward what they want to see

There just isn't enough to irrigate 'Droughtlander,' so fans are discussing the upcoming season and pointing, distinctly, at what they want to see in the time-traveling series speculated to premiere early next year.

Season 5, which will be based on Diana Gabaldon's fifth book in the 'Outlander' series titled 'The Fiery Cross,' will likely diverge from the book, so the anticipation for the Starz's series has scaled even more, thanks to Murtagh Fitzgibbon's (Duncan Lacroix) looming fate and Roger MacKenzie's (Richard Rankin) qualification as a man of not-much worth. But what fans actually want to see in season 5 is more of what was missing in season 4 - Claire (Caitriona Balfe) and Jamie Fraser (Sam Heughan), the OG couple of 'Outlander.'
