'Outlander' Season 5: Roger MacKenzie may be hated even more in upcoming season

Roger MacKenzie's season 4 finale's redemption may not have hit the mark as book readers cite that the Roger's fate gets even worse in 'The Fiery Cross'
UPDATED FEB 20, 2019

'Outlander,' season 4 made us rethink about a lot of characters and change popular opinions, one being that of Roger MacKenzie (Richard Rankin), the 20th century Oxford professor and Brianna Fraser's (Sophie Skelton) love interest. His misogynistic ideas about marriage and sex made many fans loathe him last season, and though the season finale was his redemption, it did not quite hit the mark because chances are, fans are going to despise him even more in season 5.

It is not unknown that Roger and Brianna have a toxic relationship, they can't stand being away from each other and neither can they stand to be together, at least in season 4. Season 5 will be based out of Diana Gabaldon's fifth book titled 'The Fiery Cross,' and fans have cited concerns on how Roger will be portrayed because season 4 based out of 'Drums of Autumn,' supposedly had a subtle tone of this Scottish scholar, compared to the fifth book. So if the fourth season enraged the fans, imagine what fifth could do?
