Link Tank: TV Blog Coalition Roundup for June 26-28

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 an elegy for ABC's canceled The Unusuals and offered advance reviews of FOX's Virtuality, BBC America's Doctor Who: The Next Doctor, NBC's The Philanthropist, the return of ABC's Better Off Ted, and the first four episodes of HBO's Hung.

I also discussed the latest episode of Bravo's Top Chef Masters and news of AMC's latest series order for thriller Rubicon, had several updates on the 2009 San Diego Comic-Con International schedule, interviews with Virtuality co-creator Ronald D. Moore and the cast and crew of Torchwood: Children of Earth, and offered new trailers for NBC's upcoming series Community, Trauma, and Parenthood.

Elsewhere in the sophisticated TV-obsessed section of the blogosphere, members of the TV Blog Coalition were discussing the following items...
