Wissenswertes
Red Hot Chili Peppers filed a lawsuit on November 19, 2007 against Showtime Networks over the name of the series, which is also the name of the band's 1999 album and hit single. They state in the lawsuit that the series "constitutes a false designation of origin, and has caused, and continues to cause, a likelihood of confusion, mistake, and deception as to source, sponsorship, affiliation, and/or connection in the minds of the public." Showtime Networks argued that the band did not in fact create the term Californication. They point out that the term appeared in print in Time magazine in 1972, while show producer, Tom Kapinos, cites the inspiration as coming from a bumper sticker he saw in the '70s that read, "Don't Californicate Oregon." The lawsuit was settled out of court.

All iPhones are clearly not being used for calls when characters have telephone conversations using them. Sometimes they are clearly on the home screen of the phone or on the dial pad of the phone--not mid phone call.

Season 1 - 6 only.

Love this show and I kinda hate this show.

Hank is a loveable rake who gets into all kinds of mischief and finds himself embroiled in outrageous sexual shenanigans accompanied by his agent and best friend Runkle and Runkles potty mouthed wife Marcy.

Along the way the show pokes fun at Hollywood, yes men agents, movie stars, rock stars, society, hypocrisy, the rich, pretention etc etc. It's good dirty fun.

This is somewhat spoiled by the needy doormat "wife" and po faced annoying daughter characters. Come the end of season 2 I was praying for Hank to kick his inexplicable addiction to Karen and to send his annoying spoiled daughter to boarding school in Transylvania.

There just isn't any chemistry between McElhoe and Duchonvy, this undermines the kismet manifest destiny premise for the wife character. Especially noticeable when there is great on-screen chemistry between the other leads. McElhoe also struggles throughout to play the part, the role is simply not in her wheelhouse. The daughter character adds very little to the show and is something of a cliche. It's also very difficult to look at Becka and pretend there's any DNA shared with either parent. In all honesty these two miscast characters, if you let them, could totally ruin the show for you. If they could re-edit the show to remove them it would possibly be 10\10 TV.

The series should have ended with Hank running off into the sunset with the groupie Faith at season 6. Season 7 is a total disaster. Clearly the network cut the budget to nothing and the good writers had already moved on. Resist the urge to watch it, it is atrocious.
