Summary
One in this series of evenings and special screenings presented by The Paley Center for Media’s 2011 Fall Preview Parties. This panel covers the new show “Revenge,” a dramatic television series about a young woman moving into the Hamptons as part of a scheme against the rich family who imprisoned her father.

Topics of discussion include: Kelley on the “emotional stakes” of Thorne’s revenge plot; Kelley’s plan for the show’s future and how he hopes to answer the questions posed in the pilot; Bowman on how the various characters in the show interact and will change over time; Kelley on how the idea for “Revenge” came about; how “Revenge” carries on in the tradition of classic soap operas; Bowman on his character’s motivations; VanCamp on the challenges posed by her role on “Revenge” as opposed to her earlier work on shows such as “Brothers & Sisters”; Wechsler on the “relatability” that his character brings to the show; Mann on the comedic elements of his character and how he relates to VanCamp’s character; VanCamp’s feelings on her character’s relationships; VanCamp on advertisements for “Revenge” featuring her likeness; her absence from the final few episodes of “Brothers & Sisters”; and Kelley revealing some of the “secrets” of the show to the cast.
