"Lone Star" is one of FOX\'s most anticipated fall dramas.

"Lone Star" is one of FOX's most anticipated fall dramas.

The series was front and center today at the TCA's in panel with a bonus clip (embedded below) as the panelists James Wolk, Adrianne Palicki, Eloise Mumford, Jon Voight, David Keith, Mark Deklin, Bryce Johnson, Kyle Killen (Creator/EP), Chris Keyser (EP), Amy Lippman (EP), Kerry Kohansky (EP), Peter Horton (EP) and Marc Webb (Dir/pilot) spoke to critics about the show.

"Lone Star" centers on a Texas oil-industry con artist who (borrowing a smidge from "The Riches" here) decides to assume his false life and (borrowing a bit from "Big Love" here) manage two different women and a double life.

Showrunner Kyle Killen told the critics this morning he "sold it as Dallas, without the cheese."

Our main man and "JR-esque" anti-hero is James Wolk.

David Keith and Jon Voight play his father and father-in-law respectively, and Adrianne Palicki plays the wealthier love interest of Wolk's character.
