As has been the case in the past, Sons of Anarchy's panel will take place alongside numerous other TV panels in Hall H on Sunday. Sons of Anarchy Season 6 spoilers ahead (in case you're not caught up). Note that Maggie Siff is not among the panelists. While that may not be a huge shock to Sons fans who are caught up on last season, it's worth noting as we'll surely feel the absence of Tara among this panel. That in itself should serve as a dark teaser for the anticipated Tara-less Season 7.
Also taking place on Sunday in Hall H is The Strain, Guillermo del Toro and Carlton Cuse's new drama, which debuts on FX this Sunday. As for American Horror Story, it looks like that panel will take place on Saturday, and will mainly focus on American Horror Story: Coven, judging by the title of the panel. However, the description does mention that the panel will tease the upcoming new season, American Horror Story: Freak Show. It's also well worth nothing that Michael Chiklis is on the panel, as he wasn't in AHS: Coven and is a newcomer among the cast of AHS: Freak Show.
