As fans wait for "Outlander" to return, many are searching for similar shows to enjoy.

Based on a series of best-selling books by Diana Gabaldon, the series follows Claire Randall (CaitrĂ­ona Balfe), a former World War II military nurse who, while on a trip to Scotland in 1945, finds herself transported back in time to the 18th century.

There, she meets and falls in love with Jamie Fraser (Sam Heughan), a dashing Highland warrior. Together the two find themselves swept up in many historical events, from the Jacobite rising to the American Revolutionary War.

Given its captivating romance, fascinating political backdrops, and, of course, the inclusion of time travel, it's not hard to see why audiences can't get enough of the show, which recently began a midseason hiatus.
