Amazon.co.uk Review Some people go all through their career without managing to land even one memorable role. Thanks to Californication, David Duchovny has now chalked up two. Yet Hank Moody is as far removed from The X-Files' Fox Mulder as you can pretty much get. That's because Moody is a successful author, only one with a real eye for the opposite sex. He's a man caught in the midst of a troubled life, on one hand a father, on the other dabbling with the odd drink (to put it mildly). And it's the complexity of the character that Duchovny clearly has a ball with, lifting Californication into must-see territory in the process. A real show out of nowhere, Californication though has so much more going for it. The scripts veer between very funny moments and areas that other shows wouldn't go anywhere near, while the supporting cast do ably up their game to keep up with the leading man. The full first season of Californication is presented here, and it's fair to say it leaves you salivating for more. An individual, entertaining and very funny show, this is one of those occasions where the hype surrounding a programme is there to be believed. Don't miss it. --Jon Foster

Superb! The best original show of recent times!! December 28, 2007 D. A. Ikin 9 out of 12 found this review helpful
I can honestly say that this is one of the best programmes i have ever watched. It is completely no holds barred in every way and funny, witty and very well written from start to finish! I dont want to go into detail with the plot as it would only ruin it for you but however much this dvd costs then i would pay it! Please trust me on this as i have never written a review before and this programme prompted me to write one. Happy Watching!
BLOODY HELL January 13, 2008 Mr. William Oxley (Farnham, England) 9 out of 10 found this review helpful
WHERE THE HELL DID THIS COME FROM??? A totally chaotic individual too scared to follow his talent pines for his lost love and shags his way around the city of LA. David Duchovny gives a masterful performance as a writer who has struck gold with his novel but having moved from NY to LA is now drinking himself into one bed after another. But he wants his family back together, loves his daughter and wants to love his hearts true love, which is now betrothed to another. The story is great, the acting is great, the content is explicit, and as the series title suggests most definitely adult only. Bloody Brilliant!!! A darkly brooding heroic character that is funny but pathetic. talented but empty, has found true love but loves many women, a contradiction but so true to life. Be entertained by a really surprising show and masterful performance!!!
Witty, Sarcastic and loadsa fun November 23, 2007 Chris Lee (UK) 7 out of 10 found this review helpful
It is great to finally have a show that doesn't hide behind taboo subject's. After years of playing the undervalued worker in X-Files, he gets a chance to say what a lot of people would love to say but refrain from it. Being aware that certain groups find the show offensive in numerous ways, in reality i really think they should lighten up, its not meant to be taken seriously. If anything it might let people get out of their shell. Its a feel good show which makes you chuckle all the way through! The music is really funky in it too I totally recommend it to anyone over the required age cos u'll laugh your a*s off!
Funny man X file November 9, 2007 thebiggoldfish (Staffordshire UK) 3 out of 10 found this review helpful
This is a programme i have really enjoyed watching on the TV. Duchovny really does play the comedy man very well, it's honest comedy dry sarchastic something you'd never expect coming from america. I'm not going to write a guff load of stuff on the show not even going to tell you about it all I will say is "you have to own this".
Fantastic January 7, 2008 Laura (UK) 3 out of 4 found this review helpful
This is one of the best american shows I have ever watched. It will leave you amazed that they can get away with it! Its funny, sexy, rude but really enjoyable. I would recommend you to watch it if you like risque programmes! There are a lot of sex scenes - some rather rude and lots of crude talk. I'm still amazed it is made in America - thought they were too prudish - apparently they're not even allowed to show any kissing on Big Brother!!!!
