TCA Cancels Winter Press Tour
Blaming contraction in Hollywood, the Television Critics Association has canceled the Winter TCA.
In a letter to members, TCA President Jacqueline Cutler said, “As you know, Hollywood is in a deep contraction. While several streamers, networks, and studios committed, it was not enough for a full press tour. We wanted to be respectful of our members’ need to plan so, as a board, we decided on an early November deadline to make this decision.”

“I want to stress something that members who attended last February and July already know – those were great tours,” Cutler continued. “Executives I have talked with have been exceptionally positive about the last two press tours. More importantly, each stressed wanting to participate in the Summer 2025 tour, and we are already working toward that.”
Some broadcasters and streamers have scheduled their own press events to help promote midseason programming. Fox, for example, has one coming Nov. 18 to help promote Special Forces: World’s Toughest Test and The Real Full Monty.
