Link Tank: TV Blog Coalition Roundup for Jan. 9-11

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 offered advance reviews of the first two episodes of Season Five of Lost (and nearly passed out from excitement) and the first four episodes of Showtime's new dark comedy series The United States of Tara, as well as offered up my list of what I'll be watching this spring and discussed the casting of Matt Smith as the Eleventh Doctor in Doctor Who.

I also posted my reviews of the well lush Gavin & Stacey and Doctor Who Christmas specials and my interview with Damages creators Glenn Kessler, Todd Kessler, and Daniel Zelman and series lead Glenn Close, broke down the clues in the second season premiere of FX's Damages, discussed the latest episodes of 30 Rock, and expressed my excitement that BBC America is launching the second season of Last Restaurant Standing later this month.
