Showtime's "Californication"

[Custer]

Love the nakedness. One of the funniest shows on right now. But I agree with a couple of other posters who think they would run out of jokes. At some point his life will have to move forward and when it does it will be real difficult to keep the humor on this level.

I can't help to think that the last episode of the season is going to be everybody finding out that Duchovny slept with the daughter. possibly some sort of cliffhanger.

Hate to hijack the thread a little, but Showtime has really impressed me with a lot of their tv series'sssss that have came out in the past couple of years. Weeds, Californication, and Sleeper Cell are all great shows and Dexter is currently my favorite show on television. They really are giving HBO a run for their money. If only HBO would put Arliss back on the air (sarcasm).

Note: I loved Arliss cause I'm a huge sports fan, but acting was ridiculously brutal.

I just caught the second episode. Awesome, the vomit doggie style scene was the first time I've had a legitimate belly laugh while watching tv forever. "You are one [censored] up thetan."

I love David Duchovny even though he always plays the tortured soul.

All,

Show keeps getting better and better. The subplot w/ agent and assistant rules.

Yeah. This show is great and starting to show its potential, balance, etc...

But...can we either correct the typo in the thread title or consolidate this thread with Daryn's in OOT somehow...?

thanks shaniac!! the typo is killing me (esp. because it is mine) and also because i am generally a stickler about such things. just about to go watch ep. 3, but i have already heard good things around the table about it tonight so i know i won't be disappointed.

on a small side note: boris stopped in tonight out of the blue and had a couple of beers. wasn't really expecting him in big sky country. lucky me! forgot to discuss this show, but we did discuss you el d. [img]/images/graemlins/blush.gif[/img]

yeah i was kinda surprised about the SG reference but damn it's one of the best sites on the internet (besides BBV4lyfe) so why not.
i liked the 1st episode and the 2nd episode as well but it seems like its getting better and better. can't wait for e4.

also, any ideas about viewer ratings? would hate it if the show would get cancelled after one season.

All,

For future reference, when you reply to a thread, you can change the title in your response.

Unlikely:

Showtime's Monday night comedy block held strong a week after the premiere. Although Weeds lost 100,000 viewers from its season opener, it still came in at a respectable 729,000.

Despite the lower lead-in, Californication actually managed to increase its totals -- up to 684,000 from the premiere's 550,000.

I really think this show will get even better. I mean it starts out with boobies and funny monologues/cynical observations...but as it keeps building how the characters are interlinked I think there will be some pretty cool twists and turns they will build in.

It actually seems to have a direction unlike, oh, entourage which has hot chicks and funny/hilarious situations but just sorta meanders around aimlessly.
