'PaleyFest Fall TV Previews gives fans a front-row seat to the shows everyone will be talking about. From high-stakes adventures and family drama to mysteries, romance, and plenty of holiday magic, this year's lineup has something for every TV fan,' said Maureen J. Reidy, President & CEO, The Paley Center for Media. 'Every year we are proud to take audiences behind the scenes with the stars and creative minds who are shaping what's next on television.'

'All of us at Discovery's Expedition Unknown are thrilled to be a part of PaleyFest Fall TV Previews and to showcase our new, adventure-filled expeditions,' said host and executive producer Josh Gates. 'We're also proud to preview a milestone moment from our upcoming season - the historic discovery of the lost Pan Am Clipper Endeavor aircraft, which we recently helped locate nearly 2,000 feet down on the ocean floor.'

'Since both of us spent many hours before YouTube at the Paley Museum watching old episodes of rare comedy shows (highly recommend 1955's The Phil Silvers Show 'Bivouac' by the way) we're extremely excited to talk about The Paper season two at the Paley Center,' said Greg Daniels, Co-Creator, Executive Producer, Writer & Director & Michael Koman, Co-Creator, Executive Producer & Writer.

'One of the best parts of hosting Ready to Love is seeing people take a chance on finding love. Bringing the series to Chicago for the first time and celebrating its success with the Paley Center is something I'm proud to be a part of. I'm grateful to continue showcasing the beauty and joy of Black love through this series,' said Thomas 'Nephew Tommy' Miles, Host, OWN's Ready to Love.

'Always love PaleyFest, and very excited to be a part of this year's Fall TV Previews. We hope you enjoy our unique procedural/family drama hybrid, Line of Fire. The secrets and soap start now!' Joshua Safran , Creator, Showrunner, & Executive Producer.

'We are thrilled that Best Medicine is part of PaleyFest Fall TV Previews and excited to showcase this series alongside our extraordinary cast,' said Liz Tuccillo , Showrunner and Executive Producer, and Ben Silverman and Rodney Ferrell, Executive Producers. 'This Paley conversation captures what we think makes the show so special — the warmth, humor, and humanity, as well as the incredible chemistry of this ensemble, that brings this community of Port Wenn to life.'

'It is our joy to bring an inside look at this year's highly anticipated 'Countdown to Christmas' slate to the PaleyFest Fall TV Previews,' said Michelle Vicary, Head of Programming, Hallmark Media. 'Our holiday content is rooted in celebrating traditions, connections, and positivity and this immensely talented group of actors is uniquely suited to provide an enticing sneak peek of what's to come this time of year on Hallmark.'

Since its inception in 2006, many featured programs in PaleyFest Fall TV Previews have gone on to become television classics including black-ish, Brooklyn Nine Nine, Emily in Paris, Mom, This Is Us, The Mindy Project, and countless more. These and other memorable conversations from past editions of PaleyFest Fall TV Previews can be found on the Paley Center's YouTube channel.
