What to Know

Critics Consensus

"The Reckoning" shifts focus to Jamie's POV, and swivels deftly between fights, punishments, and sex like this show hasn't seen before.

What's left at the core is something far more satisfying: The evolution of Claire and Jamie Fraser's relationship into something resembling a modern marriage. Go to Full Review Ester Bloom New York Magazine/Vulture 05/26/2016
4/5
With eight minutes left on the clock, they get to the, um, reconciling. Bless those smut-loving producers at Starz! They show us nearly everything. Go to Full Review Libby Hill New York Times 05/26/2016
One of the things the show doesn't adapt particularly well how the source material addresses Jamie. There is a vulnerability and a depth that is lost. Go to Full Review Tom Fitzgerald and Lorenzo Marquez Tom & Lorenzo 06/21/2018
While we can't argue with the appropriateness of the title of this episode, we will forevermore think of it as "The Spankening." Go to Full Review Carissa Pavlica TV Fanatic 05/26/2016
5/5
