Forty-five minutes of sex usually doesn't make me this happy.

There's reason to take a look at Californication and most of it its there in David Duchovny's excellent lead performance. Fox Mulder has great comic timing.

The cast is too appealing to make "Californication" as genuinely distasteful as it tries to be. And at the same time the writing is too broad to make it genuinely good.

Californication in Season 2 seems like its indulging a certain person's condition rather than illuminating the human condition, if you know what I mean - and I think you do.

A series of build-ups and let downs that were overcompensated for by angry sex and malicious, maddening characters.

By season two's end, Hank does come back around, getting through the turmoil of his life with that disarming smile intact. But at what cost to the viewer, who may no longer be willing to fall for his charms?

Worth the price of admission? Absolutely.

I think Duchovny is still underappreciated for knocking this role out of the park. Hank Moody is convincingly gonzo, a brainy man desperate to let real feelings penetrate his numb exterior.

Even David Duchovny and his real-life sex addiction can't save the go-nowhere story of sad sack Hank Moody.
