With all the realistic violence, heartbreak, blood, sweat, and tears that gets thrown around Outlander [1] week after week — we're looking at you, Stephen Bonnet [2] — it can be hard to remember that the Starz series isn't actually real life. But behind Caitriona Balfe and Sam Heughan's stunning performances as star-crossed soulmates Claire and Jamie, is a TV-show set full of laughter, bunny ears, and plenty of Rollo [3]. At least, that's what it seems like judging from Starz's collection of truly adorable behind-the-scenes photos from the last four seasons, which you can check out in all their glory ahead.
