Editorial Reviews:

Sophisticated and unique, this comedy centers on novelist Hank Moody (David Duchovny) who struggles to raise his 13-year-old daughter, while still carrying a torch for his ex-girlfriend. His obsession with truth-telling and self destructive behavior -- drinks drugs and relationships -- are both destroying and enriching to his career.

Summary: A New series for David Duchovny
Comment: right now i am going through weeds withdrawl waiting for season 4 to come out on dvd. when californication first came out, i thought i would not like it. david is most famous for his role as fox mulder on the X-files, but in this role, he has moved beyond chasing aliens and looking for his sister, samantha. he really shines as hank moody. after watching season one, he is trying to be a good father to his daughter, becca, and at the same time, trying to woo becca's mother, karen. the humor and the wit shine through and punctuate the series. i am not going to ruin the season ending, but when you watch the "last waltz," episode 12, you will be cheering.

Summary: Southern Belle
Comment: I wasn't quite prepared for the nudity and the language, however, when I got past it, I found the show to be excellent. The plot line is superb. It's supposed to be a comedy-drama but I found it to be very sad. I'm a David Duchovny fan and, although the Hank Moody character is so different from Fox Mulder, Duchovny is a superb actor and he's still gorgeous at the age of 48. I'm not sure yet if I will order the second season.

Summary: A Man Named Hank
Comment: We loved this series on Showtime, and we are currently enjoying season two. David Duchovny's character of 'Hank' is sort of a modern day Bukowski character...he's a writer who drinks too much, sleeps around too much, and writes too little. This is very adult humor, but all of the parts are acted pretty well, and after a while you kind of root for Hank to win, despite all of his obvious flaws. Recommended for fans of Duchovny, or Bukowski-like story telling.

Summary: Dont watch
Comment: Starts off with potential until the second season. How many episodes can you possibly make the same with just a different name?

Summary: Warning: Comedy, Sex, drugs, bad language OH MY!!!
Comment: Californication is a wild, funny, and an enteraining show about Hank Moody a washed-up writer from NY who moved to LA to make it big. It didn't work out that well and as a result he cannot write!
Hank drinks and womanizes while trying to win back his ex while raising his 12-year-old daughter. He is also being blackmailed from the ex's boyfriend's daughter.
WARNING: There is a lot of fornication is almost every episode and a lot of swearing that probably isn't necessary. You can make a great show without showing every sex scene and saying the F word in every other sentence in which it gets annoying after a while but don't let that stop you from checking out this show.
To Duchovny fans you will see the softer side in Hank's character as he has shown in The X-files and Return to Me in which makes him attractive.
The relationship with his daughter and his ex that is sweet. There is a connection there that no one can describe unless you have had experienced both. This is what keeps me tuning into this show. I will definitely check out the season 2 when it comes out on DVD!
