Fall TV: New shows, more Tweets

Over the past two weeks, many of television’s biggest stars live-tweeted the premiere episodes of their shows. And the fun’s not over yet! This week, several additional shows will feature live-tweeting casts… and we’ve even got a surprise up our sleeve.

To help you easily follow all this week’s small screen stars, we’ve created a one-stop-shop Get Started page for Fall TV: https://discover.twitter.com/falltv.html.

On Wednesday, the hotly anticipated country music drama Nashville (@Nashville_ABC) will be debuting on ABC. To celebrate the premiere, @TwitterTV has assembled a cast of country music performers and influencers to live-tweet and give fans the real insider scoop on all things country.

On Thursday, the new @CW_Network show Beauty and the Beast will also kick things off on Twitter,  as well as hit Vampire Diaries. On Sunday @Revenge fans can ask a cast member about the show’s twists and turns.
