Netflix finally adds 'Outlander' season 7 — but there's one huge catch
If you're a huge 'Outlander' fan and have been waiting for another season to hit Netflix, then you're in luck. One of the best streaming services has finally added season 7 of the fan-favorite historical romance time-travel series to its platform. The catch? You can only watch the first eight episodes on Netflix, and it'll be a while before the second half arrives. That's right, Netflix's annoying habit of releasing shows in batches continues, though this time the decision is really out of the streamer's hands. You see, "Outlander" is a Starz exclusive, so Netflix subscribers have always had to endure lengthy waits for the latest episodes to make their way over. As of this week (August 11), Netflix subscribers can watch the first eight episodes of "Outlander" season 7, the show's second-to-last season. We hope you like cliffhangers, though, because part two (episodes 9 through 16) won't arrive on Netflix until next year: January 17, 2027. If five months is too long to wait for part 2, you'll have to shell out for a Starz subscription to catch the rest of "Outlander" season 7 in the meantime. Starz usually costs $10.99/month, but right now you can get your first three months for just $4.99 a month. Prime Video also offers a Max and Starz streaming bundle in the U.S. that's 25% less than subscribing to each service individually, saving you around $6.99 each month. Since Netflix is the more popular streaming service of the two, season 7's arrival is the perfect opportunity to dive into this much-lauded saga before it wraps up with season 8 next year. As with past seasons, season 8 will premiere on Starz, and it's set to arrive in early 2025 with no official release date announced yet. Starz: was $10.99/month now $4.99 for the first three monthsStarz is one of the more underrated streaming services out there, offering access to some great thriller shows like "Sweetpea" and the hit drama "Outlander" season 7 part 2. With its rich library of original content, movies and shows, it's perfect for anyone seeking more premium entertainment. For those unfamiliar, "Outlander" is based on the novels of the same name by Diana Gabaldon. The series stars Caitríona Balfe as Claire Randall, a former World War II military nurse whose honeymoon takes an unlikely turn when she's mysteriously transported back to the year 1743. As she navigates life in a bygone century, she falls in love with another man named Jamie (Sam Heughan), a Highland warrior allied with Clan Fraser of Lovat. Claire adapts to having two completely different relationships, which naturally come with unforeseen consequences. Get instant access to breaking news, the hottest reviews, great deals and helpful tips. In season 6, the couple navigated the trials and tribulations of life in colonial America, including building a home together and fighting a wrongful conviction that threatens to uproot everything they've worked for. Season 7 sees them facing the brutal birth of a new nation as the American Revolution breaks out. "Outlander" has remained consistently impressive throughout its run in terms of its narrative, character development, and world-building. The series has an overall critics' score of 90% on Rotten Tomatoes, with season 7 being heralded as a particular high mark, earning a 95% score. Netflix has been killing the game so far this year with new content on its streaming platform. There are many more movies and shows to watch on Netflix in August, including the highly anticipated season 2 of "Wednesday" and a charming new mystery, "The Thursday Murder Club," starring Helen Mirren, Pierce Brosnan, and Ben Kingsley. Now is your chance to stream every season of 'Outlander' again (or check it out for the first time) before the eighth season comes out next year. Watch "Outlander" season 7 on Netflix or find more of the best Netflix shows to tide you over in the meantime.

Is Meghan Markle's New Netflix Deal a Win For Her?
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. Meghan Markle and Prince Harry have signed a new Netflix deal on different terms, sparking a debate about whether it represents a victory or a loss for the couple. The Duchess of Sussex is preparing to drop the second season of her cooking show With Love, Meghan later in August. And she was this week able to shoot down media rumors that Netflix were going to dump her with the announcement of a new multi-year contract.

Courtesy of Netflix © 2025 Why It Matters The couple's first Netflix deal, signed in September 2020, was worth a reported $100m and covered all projects produced over a five-year period. Its 2022 documentary Harry & Meghan retold the story of their move to the U.S., including their perspective on the royal rift and remains the streamer's most-watched documentary debut. The new arrangement is a "first-look deal" that gives Netflix first refusal on new projects. Some argue securing a second deal is for the couple a win in itself, after press reports suggesting the two sides were parting company. But while its financial terms have not been disclosed, the latest agreement is thought to be considerably less lucrative than the first, leading some to see it as a downgrade. What to Know Meghan said that she and Harry were extending their deal for films and TV shows with Netflix on Monday, saying the couple were inspired to "create thoughtful content across genres that resonates globally, and celebrates our shared vision." U.K. brand and culture expert Nick Ede, who predicted in July that a first-look deal would be the likely outcome of negotiations, said after Monday's announcement: "I see it as a win for Meghan and for Harry to have Netflix, it's still one of the biggest outputters of entertainment, still backing them in this way. "They're still going to have some of their office costs paid for and development costs paid for," he told Newsweek. Alongside the new deal, Meghan and Harry were able to announce a holiday special for With Love, due for release in December, as well as a new documentary, Masaka Kids, A Rhythm Within. The latter is based around an orphanage in Masaka, Uganda, home to what a press release calls "a vibrant, one-of-a-kind community where orphaned children transform hardship into joy, dancing their way toward healing, belonging, and the promise of a brighter future." It is due out later in 2025. Netflix is also an equity partner in Meghan's online shop, As Ever, which sells wine and products like jam, tea and honey featured in her cooking show. "We've got the second season of With Love, Meghan to come out, and we've got the Christmas special and Netflix have got the investment in the actual brand itself," Ede said. "So I don't think this is a fail. It's almost a bit like a natural progression. We know there's no more room for a kiss and tell. "That's what they did at the beginning, that's how they dangled the carrot and why Netflix bit. They haven't got that richness of content to talk about the royal family anymore so of course it's not going to be so fruitful for them anymore but it's a good outcome." While Harry & Meghan was hugely commercially successful, it was criticized for retreading the same ground covered in the couple's exclusive Oprah Winfrey interview, prompting Variety to run the headline: "It's Well Past Time for Harry and Meghan 2.0." Other projects since have been far less controversial—and have not gained the same viewer numbers. The first-look deal reflects the reality that second time around, the couple are unlikely to land a commercial mega-hit of royal bombshell proportions, which would explain why Netflix will not be paying them huge yearly sums, but rather funding specific ideas they consider to be worth the money. And Meghan and Harry have swerved the reputational injury that losing Netflix as a partner would have represented, although Ede argues the pressure is still on to produce great content. "Archewell is... a production company which has big salaries for big people in there who have come up with lots of ideas and... many of those ideas haven't seen the light of day," he said. "It's really important to show some more success, and to work out what success looks like and create content that people really want to see." He pointed to the example of Barak and Michelle Obama, who pivoted to producing shows that were not about their lives, such as 2023 series Leave the World Behind, starring Mahershala Ali, Julia Roberts, Kevin Bacon and Ethan Hawke. "That's what Archewell need to do," said Ede. What People Are Saying Former BBC royal correspondent Jenny Bond, asked whether the Netflix deal was like a phoenix emerging from the ashes for Meghan, replied: "We have to accept that it is us, the media, who created those ashes. There was no statement from Harry and Meghan, no indication at any point, but we all decided that the Netflix deal was dead in the water, so it's one in the eye for all her detractors. "They have won," she added. "Meghan has won and we have to eat humble pie." Eric Schiffer, chairman of Reputation Management Consultants, told Newsweek Meghan's lifestyle rebrand was like a "manufactured Martha Stewart and fans and those that are watching for the first time will cringe. Netflix is about data and the data from what I understand is not good." PR expert Mark Borkowski told the Daily Mail: "Netflix has done a very neat job of pivoting away from two very expensive people who didn't deliver, and they've taken that deal off the table, and they've given them a modest one. "It's not like they're gradually uncoupling—it's a downgrade. Netflix are not going to expose themselves to those budgets again." U.K. satirical show Have I Got News for You posted on X: "Netflix have signed a new deal that gives them 'first refusal' on Harry and Meghan's show ideas, frustrating rival streamers who wanted to have the rights to say no first." Jennie Bond (UK royal expert) : You talk about ashes but I think we have to accept that it is us the media who CREATE THOSE Ashes, There was not statement from Harry and Meghan and no indication at any point but we all decided that the Netflix deal was dead in the water .
