Well, Discovery Channel responded to my inquiry regarding the status of their show Philly Throttle. Reading between the lines it does not bode well for it coming back. I base this opinion on the fact that if they were going to air new shows in spring or early summer the new shows would be in post-production and those airdates would be tentatively penned in. (Disclaimer, I am not an expert in TV production/scheduling but I did stay at a Holiday Inn last night 🙂 )
Here is the response from Discovery:
