Outlander specifically isn't actually owned by Lionsgate, it's under license from Sony and wasn't on other Lionsgate+ regions

Epix had been fully owned by MGM since May 2017 which Amazon acquired and then both the channel Epix and streaming service 'Epix now' were rebranded as MGM+
Amazon added MGM+ Billy The Kid from MGM Television to Prime this week, Fargo moved from Channel 4 to Prime Video and previously seasons left Netflix in a dozen countries over a year ago.
