David Duchovny makes a triumphant return to television in Californication centering around novelist Hank Moody (Duchovny), who struggles to help raise his 13-year-old daughter, while still carrying a torch for his ex-girlfriend Karen (Natascha McElhone), all while trying to re-launch his writing career. His obsession with honesty and his self-destructive behavior – drinks, drugs and relationships – are simultaneously destroying and enriching his career. He’s holding it together while falling apart – and he doesn’t mind it one bit.
