It would not be outlandish to say that Starz has complete faith in "Outlander." Not only is the tentpole series gearing up for its heavily anticipated final episodes next year, but the fantasy period drama is even getting a prequel to hold audiences over until then.

In that spirit, original Outlander star Graham McTavish, who played Jamie Fraser's uncle on the Starz series, made a surprise appearance at the Comic-Con panel for prequel series Outlander: Blood of my Blood to jokingly ask Sam Retford, who plays a younger Dougal in the new show, a question.
