2017 ATX Television Festival Adds ‘This Is Us’ Panel, Reunions For ‘The Comeback’ and ‘thirtysomething’
Get ready to sweat and cry, TV fans, because the ATX Television Festival has just booked This Is Us for its annual shindig, going down in steamy Austin, Texas, from June 8-11.
The NBC series that’s been regularly breaking our hearts will host a panel featuring stars Milo Ventimiglia and Mandy Moore, as well as NBC Entertainment president Jennifer Salke, series creator and executive producer Dan Fogelman, and his fellow EP Ken Olin.
Making the most of his airline miles, Olin will also participate in the 30th anniversary reunion of the iconic yuppie drama thirtysomething, joining former castmates Patricia Wettig, Peter Horton, Melanie Mayron, Timothy Busfield and David Clennon.
And just so you don’t think ATX is all about the emotional dramas, there will also be an event celebrating The Comeback, HBO’s late, great spoof of (fittingly) the TV industry. Among the scheduled panelists are co-creator/EP/star Lisa Kudrow, who nabbed an Emmy nomination as Valerie Cherish; co-creator and EP Michael Patrick King; cast member and EP Dan Bucatinsky; and cast member Laura Silverman.
No offense, Aunt Sassy, but we do need to see that one!
