Title: Californication
Post by: oldgentlovecraft on Sep 18, 2008, 06:02 PM
I just started watching this on Showtime and I'm addicted.  It's like The Catcher in the Rye for adults.  Last night I saw an episode where he even got beat up by a pimp for not paying the prostitute.  Anyone seen?

I've glanced at it,but never got into it. I DO know that David Duchovny just went to rehab for sex addiction. haha

Weeds is a good show on Showtime, but I've never actually watched Californication
Title: Re: Californication
Post by: lostpilot on Sep 18, 2008, 06:11 PM
Yeah, I watched every episode of Californication,
nice. Of course not the highest quality of a tv show, but still decent and very enjoyable!


And now yes, Weeds is one veeeeeeeeery good show!

Lol nice.  He's actually pretty damn funny in the show and some of the sex scenes are hilarious.  Last night his friend ripped his nipple with a clamp.

I was surprised with how much I got into it.  David Duchovny does a good job.

yeah when i first watched it, i thought to myself "wow, they can really show that on tv?". haha, i love how much they push it to the limit.

The feel of the show reminds me of Nip/Tuck but better written and wittier.

Californiacation is really good.  Last season ended fantastically.  I can't wait for the new season.     Showtime has tons of great shows.   Not only is Californiacation great.... Weeds and Dexter are UBER good shows to watch every week!    Catch them if ya get a chance.   I love them all... but ahh Dexter is one of them ones where you are kind of on the edge of your seat show wondering whats gonna happen from week to week.

Title: Re: Californication
Post by: nonesuch on Sep 19, 2008, 12:19 PM
ive seen every episode of weeds, dexter, and californication and was sucked in nonstop for everyone til i finished it.  Californication is a great show and one of the most leave you hanging/wanting more season endings ive ever seen. Of course the ending to season one (or was it two) of Weeds is legendary

Right now i cant stop watching LOST though, halfway through season 3 and my life is worthless because of it
Title: Re: Californication
Post by: lostpilot on Sep 19, 2008, 01:13 PM
yeah, LOST is addictive, very.

I watched season 2 in two days, having about 4 hours of sleep (and then again having dreams with Lost setting and heroes, LOL).

yeah but very predictable. when they showed mia's return in last weeks previews i knew where it was heading.

and "rocket man" was an odd choice of song to play while all that unfolded. but somehow it worked. it definitly added to the gravity of the situation. for me at least.
Title: Re: Californication
Post by: theis on Dec 14, 2009, 04:51 PM
Definitely. I loved how powerful the scene was without hearing what was being said.

Title: Re: Californication
Post by: Jacob on Dec 15, 2009, 09:15 AM
very sad final, although predictable as devlin said.

I'm slowly starting to hate Karen to be honest. sure, she's hot as fucking hell, but she just won't give Hank a break and when he actually tries to be a good man she totally ignores it or turns it around on him.

well there is only so much a person can take. only so many times she can forgive his fucking around. but this mia thing really isn't his fault. karren was with bill at the time and he had no idea who she was, or how young. the only thing he did wrong was lie and let this get so big (the whole book deal)
Title: Re: Californication
Post by: Jacob on Dec 15, 2009, 12:58 PM
that's what I'm talking about. sure, we don't know exactly what words were said, but I can only imagine he explained every part of the story, and if he did then her freaking out was surely too much, especially considering the good place they were in at the moment.

so yeah, he's fucking around and lying. but she's no better when she leads him on all the time, then throws random stuff in his face. the kid had it right, she just needs to walk away instead of making his life even more miserable.

and actually he didn't exactly "let" the book deal get as big as it did - he tried stopping her but didn't exactly have much choice.
Title: Re: Californication
Post by: devlin on Dec 15, 2009, 01:03 PM
he could have told the truth from the begining is all i meant. and the book situation would have gone no where.

he and karen have a fucked up realationship, there is no denying that. but it seems like you are being very biased torwards hank. and putting way to much blame on karen. both have fucked up alot. but i would definitly say, although i like hanks character alot better, that he is to blame for most.
Title: Re: Californication
Post by: Jacob on Dec 15, 2009, 01:11 PM
yeah I guess I'm somewhat biased, and I realize he's to blame for most of it. I just think she handles most situations extremely selfish.

to be honest, I think I've watched too much Rescue Me... there are some big similarities between Tommy and Janet Gavin and Hank and Karen. and Janet turned out to be a heartless bitch so I guess I'm kinda expecting the same from Karen.

I know, I take tv series way too seriously.
Title: Re: Californication
Post by: devlin on Dec 15, 2009, 01:34 PM
haha i tend to really get into to shows too. i've never seen rescue me. but karen has every right to be selfish and gaurded as far as im concerned. i want it to work out and for hank to get what he wants and be happy. but he sabotages him self everytime.

same with runkel (sp?) i thought marcy was coming around. but again they both fucked up alot, and he was to blame for most of it. and i can't blame her for not giving it another go.

Indeed, they are awesome.

That Sasha Bingham character is one of the hottest pieces of ass I've seen in a long time. And she's only 20 years old in real rile. GodDAMN!
Title: Re: Californication
Post by: dawg on Dec 28, 2010, 10:31 AM
hell yeah! she seems hot in the show but google her and stalk her on twitter ;)
she has nice tits though... :D

and by the way david is already 50! he achieved something when he can still make awesome shows like this!
too bad the show isn't doing well where I am from. hope america will love it and we get more seasons!

I have never seen this show. Is it like Spartacus where the only point of watching is tits? Or is there actually a good story/acting/writing?

Great to see him back indeed but the episode was bad.
I was looking forward to how they were going to arrange the whole relationship thing between Ben and Hank. In the last episode he saved his life and now they jump two years ahead?

And yes there is a story, very good acting and twists in writing you don't expect!

But yeah, damn good season so far. Much better than the last one.

When Hank went to rehab, I had a feeling if he quits doing drugs, its gonna be the end of the series.

Glad he checked out the next episode and things went back to normal ;)
Title: Re: Californication

Is it better than the last one - which was barely ok ?
Title: Re: Californication
Post by: normsteez on Mar 08, 2013, 04:11 PM
I think its a great season. Maggie Grace is beautiful.

Hank and Charlie Runkles seem like they truly are best friends. Runkle has been great this season, it was hilarious when he was acting like he was gay.
