The 4 thrilling TV panels we can't wait to see at Paleyfest 2016
The Paley Center for Media's annual PaleyFest kicks off Friday in Los Angeles, and this year's lineup is a who's who of TV awesomeness.
Fox's Empire, AMCs Better Call Saul, Fox’s Scream Queens, ABC’s black-ish, CBS’s Supergirl, ABC’s Scandal, CBS’s The Big Bang Theory, AMC’s Fear The Walking Dead, NBC's quartet of Dick Wolf-produced procedurals, and FX’s American Horror Story: Hotel all have panels at the TV festival, taking place at the Dolby Theater.
But even with that impressive lineup, we're allowed to have our favorites. Here's who we're most excited to see.

Empire
It's been more than three months since we've seen a new episode of Empire -- so we're expecting the cast and crew to give some major scoopage on the second half of Season 2.
More than a dozen members of team Empire are expected to be on hand for the panel, taking place March 11 at 7:30 p.m. PT.
Supergirl
Supergirl is the sole superhero show on the PaleyFest lineup this year. But it's a great choice, especially with The Flash's impending visit to National City.
Melissa Benoist, Calista Flockhart, Chyler Leigh, Mehcad Brooks, and producers are all expected to attend. Their panel takes place March 13 at 7 p.m. PT.
Fear the Walking Dead
Last we saw, our Los Angeles-based survivor group was planning to hit the seas in order to escape the zombie apocalypse. But something tells us things aren't going to go swimmingly.
Color us excited to learn more about ocean zombies.
The panel takes place March 19 at 2 p.m. PT.
American Horror Story
It's that time of year again! For the past few years, AHS has used the PaleyFest stage to announce the new season's theme and time period setting. Will the trend continue?
We certainly hope so. That chance alone is worth canceling all plans so you can keep an eye on news via Twitter. (Yes, this year's panels aren't live streaming.)
Also, this cast is usually a bucket of fun.
This panel will mark the end of PaleyFest and will take place March 20 at 7 p.m. PT.
