Californication - Season One
Date undefinedI can't believe anyone would give this show anything lower than 4 stars. DD has some of the best one liners ever written and his character is one of the most refreshing on TV. Women want him and men want to be him. Please watch this show!!!
Californication - Season One
Date undefinedShipping from Amazon was lightening fast. DVD's arrived in great shape. Fun to watch again. It's nice to be able to backtrack and see pieces of this great program at my own pace. It's also nice to be able to once again listen and even jot down "Hanks" cutting quips, just so I can use them if the need ever arises. This show is very quirky and fun. It's definately for adults only but that's what I like about it. The writing is great and the stories are fabulous. David Duchovny is perfect for this part; as I understand it he's living it in real life.
Smell ya later........
Californication - Season One
Date undefined"Californication" is a new Showtime series that chronicles the life of struggling writer Hank Moody (David Duchovney) and his plight to get back together with his ex girlfriend Karen (Natascha McElhone), with which they have a daughter Becca (Madeleine Martin). If you think this sounds like another sap series that we seem to be overwhelmed with in this day in age, you are wrong. There is plenty of sex, drugs, alcohol and humor to dilute the underlying plot to attract viewers and keep you watching. It's not unreasonable to finish this entire series in one sitting.
Hank's problems begin when his best selling novel is turned into a mainstream Hollywood hit movie, which he feels ruined his work. Ever since he moved to L.A. from The Big Apple he comes down with a severe case of writers block. He takes a job as a blogger but hates the idea of blogging instead of creating a meaningful piece of literature. His hate for this blog is amplified once he finds out that his new boss is Bill (Damien Young), the man that Karen left him for. To make matters worse, Hank unknowingly has sex with Bill's 16-year-old daughter Mia (Madeline Zima), which ultimately becomes the inspiration for his newest novel, which is then used as blackmail against Hank after Mia steals the book and tries to get it published under her name. Throughout the series we see that Hank is still very much in love with Karen, even with his many interesting sexual escapades, and we get a sense that she stills loves Hank as well. This sets up for a very interesting look into Hank's many problems as he searches for love and self-discovery throughout the episodes.
"Californication" is one of the most hilarious shows on TV this year. There are many funny situations that lighten Hank's goal of reuniting his family. The humor ranges from awkward situations to hilarious three way sex scenes with entertaining climaxes. I believe I laughed so hard that I tore a muscle in my stomach. You will laugh, as well as sympathize with Hank's many problems, the whole way through this series... It's a guarantee. If I can get my mother to like this show, you will too.
