"Fair"

By thefanof, Mar 13, 2011

Californication started off its third season so strong, but lately the show has been just a bit mediocre. Hank Moody's behavior and dialogue seems a bit too scripted, as is not flowing as naturally as it used to. With all the bizarre pop culture references being spewed Californication is starting to sound like a Diablo Cody film.

I hope the show can turn things around, and it is quite simple how to do so: let Hank Moody run around being a single guy going after a bunch of women. When he is obsessed with Karen, things get, a bit iffy.moreless

"Good"

By cloudav23, Apr 09, 2010

Its a typical episode of californication except for there is no knockers this time. Mommy Karen is now home with the family and now the other love interests of Hank are now backing off. So no nudity now, specially our favorite stripper student with yummy melons. I will just also comment on the acting of the actress portraying Becca, I mean get some acting lessons. She's like acting in her school play. Girl this is bigtime tv series, level your skills with your co-actors. And looks like there is nothing this story is going. But then again its like that all the time. But it will suprise us with unpredictable twists and turns on the way and with flashes of some nice knockers. And thats why we love this show.moreless

ADD ALLUSIONS
- Hank: (to Charlie) What are you doing moping in the fridge? Eighties pop legend Rick Springfield is in their stealing your girl. Not Jessie's girl, your girl! This is a reference to Rick Springfield's 1981 song "Jessie's Girl" from his album Working Dog. The song earned Springfield a Grammy Award for Best Male Rock Vocal Performance.
  EDIT SHARE
- Marcy: (to Karen) Rick Springfield and Andy Gibb on Solid Gold, this means nothing to you? Solid Gold was a music TV series that ran from 1980 to 1988. Australian singer Andy Gibb hosted the show for several years in the early 80s, during which Rick Springfield made several appearances on the show.
  EDIT SHARE
- Hank: You look like America's next top smurf. As he compliments Marcy on her fabulous dress, Hank alludes to both the reality competition show for aspiring models, America's Next Top Model and the blue-skinned dwarf character from the '80s TV cartoon.
