Today Syfy and Universal Cable Productions brought together the stars and executive producers of the new original series HAPPY! and the critically acclaimed fantasy drama THE MAGICIANS with back-to-back panels at New York Comic Con. HAPPY! premieres Wednesday, December 6 at 10/9c, and THE MAGICIANS is set to return for Season 3 in January 2018.

HAPPY! starring Christopher Meloni and featuring THE VOICE of Patton Oswalt kicked-off the Syfy block with a screening of the premiere episode for the first time ever. Directly following, Oswalt gave a video introduction of the panel, which featured moderator Brian Truitt (USA Today), star Christopher Meloni ("Law & Order: SVU"), executive producers Grant Morrison and Brian Taylor, and showrunner Patrick Macmanus. Throughout the moderated discussion, the audience got insight into this gritty, subversive holiday story, and were teased what is to come throughout the season. For the HAPPY!

After teasing the upcoming third season and showing a first-look clip, the cast got personal about set life during a revealing game of "Never Have I Ever."
