As I post, television critics and journalists from across the country are continuing the bi-annual ritual that is the TCA Press Tour and getting ready for Discovery Communications‘ panels. Held each summer at the Beverly Hilton, the Television Critics Association‘s event allows broadcast and cable networks to unveil new and returning series and specials that will premiere in the coming months. You can read all the news by clicking on the links below and follow @DiscoveryComm and #TCAs12 on Twitter for live updates from the Tour. We’ll also be sharing photos from our panels as they happen through the Discovery Communications Flickr account.
