Opinion: Californication Comes ... To a Season's End
Californication concluded its delightful first season on Showtime last night with an hilarious, savvy, altogether satisfying 12th episode.

In the end, Californication was really not about sex or nudity. It was about attitude. About not always ideal but more or less healthy attitude. About hard luck and...   [read the full post]

By noreply@blogger.com (Paul Levinson) Showtime's Californication resumes next Sunday with Season 2. I saw the first four episodes - hey, it's a tough job, but someone's gotta do it. Here's a no-spoiler preview review with some of the highlights.... As with last season, Hank can't seem to get a break. But his surprising mixture of licentiousness and responsibility - at least, to his family and friends, if not to himself - makes Californication, even if it wasn't easy on the eyes, a show to look forward to.... And don't say I never think of you, Infinite Regress readers - click here to see the first episode of Californication Season 1, on Showtime's special VIP insider site. You'll need a password.

By noreply@blogger.com (RikerDonegal) Cheers to Californication (and David Duchovny for a mesmerising final scene). Jeers, naturally, to dopey old Prison Break for mis-handling a behind-the-scenes problem. Episode 10. "The Devil's Threesome" If the last one felt like a season finale, then this feels like a whole new season. Charlie is living with Hank, Mia is showing Hank's stolen book to agents (specifically Dani) and Hank himself seems to be genuinely over Karen. While not as strong as recent episodes (all the Hank/Charlie stuff is boring) there is still a lot to like here: it's cool see Mia and Dani spend so much time together and their conversations are fascinating.   [read the full post]
