Could be another great HBO series, and a nice thing for the area, assuming it's filmed here. I liked the book a lot.
Quoted: Actor-producer Rita Wilson will be in charge of developing a one-hour series out of the Pulitzer Prize-winning Jeffrey Eugenides novel, "Middlesex."
Quoted: HBO has not commented yet on whether the series will actually be filmed in Detroit, but going off of recent trends (the network's new series "Hung" was filmed in the metro area), there's a good possibility.

Mr. Song's! That hat is amazing; good for him and good for Aretha. The article doesn't go too far into the fact that much of the attention is negative, but I'm behind the design all the way.
Quoted: Minutes after Franklin sang 'My Country, 'Tis of Thee' on Tuesday, the phones at Mr. Song Millinery started ringing.
Quoted: The hat has gone crazy in the media and cyberspace.

We KNOW her!
Quoted: Rising stars take their turn in the spotlight in these fun feature interviews.

A sad and interesting case. The judge in the case denied NBC's initial motion to dismiss. I remember reading about this when it happened - apparently a lot of law enforcement personnel involved with the show have had problems with the way things are handled.
Quoted: The Conradt family’s lawyer, Bruce Baron, of Baron Associates in Brooklyn, said the decision “sends a strong message to law enforcement throughout this country: Never subcontract your uniform, badge and the oath you take.”

Nick Hornby interviews David Simon, who explains The Wire from square one. It's great. Lots of McNulty-style righteous anger.
Quoted: We hang out in the Baltimores of the world, writing what we want to write about and never keeping one eye on whether or not it could sell as much as a drama that had, say, more white faces, more women with big tits, and more stuff that blows up or squirts blood real good.
Quoted: So we are misfits, and while we hope the show is entertaining enough, none of us think of ourselves as providing entertainment. The impulse is, again, either journalistic or literary. Hope this helps and doesn’t sound as wrought and pompous as I think it does.
A little of both, but we forgive you.
