Editorial Reviews

Former X-Files star David Duchovny played for laughs rather than chills in this Hollywood-based Showtime dramedy, which first aired August 13, 2007. Duchovny was cast as writer Hank Moody, whose highly acclaimed best-selling novel "God Hates Us All" had been made into an innocuous romantic comedy film with Katie Holmes and Tom Cruise named "A Crazy Little Thing Called Love." The novel, alas, may have been the summit of Hank's literary career; after a lengthy professional slump, he was suffering from the mother of all midlife crises. To boost his tattered self-esteem, Hank had turned to booze and drugs, to say nothing of his innumerable one-night stands with an endless parade of nameless starlets, waitresses, and assorted floozies. As a result, his relationship with his 12-year-old daughter, Becca (Madeleine Martin), was somewhat shaky; while Becca's mother, Karen (Natascha McElhone), weary of Hank's self-destructive hedonism in particular and the L.A. scene in general, had become engaged to another man. At the same time, Hank's brief fling with a girl named Mia (Madeline Zima) would prove to sobering long-range ramifications...but we're getting ahead of ourselves. Rounding out the cast was Evan Handler as Charlie, Hank's agent and best friend (a unique combination in La-La Land!). The weekly Californication had originally been conceived as a theatrical feature by series creator Tom Kapinos, who'd been inspired by the famous cautionary bumper sticker "Don't Californicate Oregon."

February 27, 2009: Many people live lives just as these folks do. Not everyone is cut out like a cookies cutter. We are not black and white. We are grey. Casual or social drug use is normal

in America.

A "must see" if you don't subscribe to Showtimeby Anonymous

February 09, 2009: Fantastic scripts, creative plotlines within episodes and acrosss the entire Season 1. And the acting is superb--especially Natascha McElhone, Madeline Martin and Madeline Zima. And, as always, Evan Handler knows how to create unique characters--he's terrific! And Duchovey ain't bad either, although apparently in this Showtime series, his "art" may well have been imitating what was going on in his own life! Or, perhaps, he began to blur the line between acting a role and living his own life??!! Regardless, this is good stuff! I can't wait until Season 2 comes out!
