Link Tank: TV Blog Coalition Roundup for March 27-29

Written by Jace | Sunday, March 29, 2009 | 0 comments »

Televisionary is proud to be a member of the TV Blog Coalition. At the end of each week, we'll feature a roundup of content from our sister sites for your delectation.

This week, I took an early look at the two-hour pilot of Sci Fi's new drama series Caprica, the prequel to Battlestar Galactica, which will be available as a DVD or digital download next month.

I also took an early look at the first few episodes of HBO's new drama series No. 1 Ladies' Detective Agency, spoke to Sci Fi Channel president Dave Howe about the channel's planned rebranding as Syfy, shared the fact that I was quoted in The New York Times, and reviewed the five-part Masterpiece Classic adaptation of Charles Dickens' Little Dorrit.


And I discussed the latest episodes of ABC's Lost, FX's Damages, BBC America's Last Restaurant Standing, NBC's Chuck, and the season finale of HBO's Big Love.

Elsewhere in the sophisticated TV-obsessed section of the blogosphere, members of the TV Blog Coalition were discussing the following items...
  • American Idol contestants keep getting criticized for their song choices, so Buzz whipped up a few guidelines to help the singers make their picks. (BuzzSugar)

Post a Comment

Some ground rules about commenting here:

(1) Please be sure to **PREVIEW** your comment by hitting the preview button before pressing Post Comment, in order to guarantee that it will be logged.
(2) Keep it civil. We're all here to discuss television so I won't tolerate any intentionally rude or aggressive behavior towards other commenters or myself.
(3) Keep in on topic. That means keeping your comments restricted to the news, review, or interview you're currently commenting on. And no ads for other sites or services, please!
(4) Please don't comment as "Anonymous." It gets really confusing in longer threads (not to mention irritating) and there is the option to select a name (any name) by using the Name/URL option. So, please, no more "Anonymous" comments!

Thanks and keep reading!
