When Season 1 came and went with no mention of the TOJ, I knew that Martin had zero intention of sharing this secret on the show ahead of the books.
Martin's actually gone on record that he wishes they would deal with the flashbacks, visions, and history on the show, but time is obviously an issue.
I think they will heavily condense books 4 and 5 and make those into two seasons at worst. A lot can be cut from those books and they take place mostly at the same time.

Martin has also mentioned that budget is a big reason why some of the battle scenes get left off the show. Specifically, he mentions that horses are expensive.
To do a TOJ scene, you would need specially trained stunt doubles, armor, props, a Tower, horses, etc. It would be an extremely expensive scene...and relatively short.
The producers might be saving it for a later season.

I don't see how they could get around it with Cersei's backstory. They have to do it then.
