It's that time of year again! Time to start getting ready for the annual pop-culture extravaganza known as San Diego Comic-Con.
My Comic-Con spies have been working overtime and multiple sources have supplied exclusive info on TV-related panels that will be taking place at this year's mid-summer shebang. There are quite a few first-timers at the con this year: "Castle," "Sons of Anarchy," "Archer," "No Ordinary Family" and "White Collar" will be among the newbies this time around.
There are many more updates to come, so don't fret if you don't see some of your favorite shows mentioned here. This is just a preliminary list and there are sure to be more announcements about who's going to San Diego in the weeks leading up to the July 22-25 event. There's no news yet on which actors and creators will attend panels for their shows; all those details should emerge in coming weeks.
(And yes, unfortunately Comic-Con tickets are sold out, but you can often catch excerpts or full panels on various network Web sites in the days after the big convention, and if news breaks, you can be sure it'll be tweeted/blogged by myself and others in attendance.)
Without further ado, here are some of the programs that will be presenting panels at Comic-Con this summer (if I know the date of the panel, I've listed that as well).
UPDATE: I've added Showtime's "Dexter" panel, Syfy's "Eureka" and a couple of "possible maybe" panels.
"Archer" (FX, July 23)
Possible panel: "Being Human" (BBC America)
"The Big Bang Theory" (CBS)
"Burn Notice" (USA)
"Castle" (ABC)
"Chuck" (NBC)
"Dexter" (Showtime)
"Eureka" (Syfy)
Possible panel: "Look Around You" (BBC America)
"Psych" (USA)
"Hawaii Five-O" (new CBS show)
"It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia" (FX, July 25)
"No Ordinary Family (new ABC show)
"Sons of Anarchy" (FX, July 25)
"Spartacus" (Starz, July 23)
"White Collar" (USA)
UPDATE 2: HBO has not yet confirmed a "True Blood" panel, but the fine folks at True-Blood.Net interviewed Charlaine Harris, the author of the Sookie Stackhouse novels (and a confirmed Comic-Con Special Guest), and "True Blood" actor Joe Manganiello, both of whom said the show would be part of the San Diego convention.
