They reunite as parents to support their daughter when she needs them. Despite his promiscuous life, Hank still gets jealous of her new loves. Karen got pregnant with Becca soon after they got together and not marrying her is his biggest regret.Įven when Hank and Karen aren’t together as a couple, they have a kinda flirty relationship and banter. Karen is his daughter’s mother and the love of his life. Karen is a woman for whom Hank will drop anything and anyone (even a long-term girlfriend). And yet through all his dalliances, you feel you want to support him when his character is interrupted by others during an intimate moment or his concurrent relationships are discovered.īut it’s his love for the main lady in his life that you – along with some of his ladies – almost envy. Or he dates three women at the same time, with one scene where he is seen talking to all three, with the women not knowing of the other two. He sleeps with a mother and daughter (not at the same time).

He’s slept with the wife of the director of that rom-com movie he hates.

Surprisingly only a few of his ladies actually know each other, although at times his love life is kind of edging on the precarious. The show opens in one of Hank’s dreams where he confesses to a nun about his writer’s block and she offers and provides a sexual act to assist him. So expect a lot of explicit sex acts and love-making scenes from the get-go. Hank hooks up and beds with a large number of ladies. A bit like Harrison Ford as Hans Solo in Star Wars VII The Force Awakens (2015), but younger.ĭuring the show’s run. Combine this personality with Hank’s more casual haircut and dress – compared with the shorter hair-cut suited Mulder, from The X Files(1993-) – and Hank just looks roguishly fun. Here, Duchovny plays him with great relish, with a wee mischievous twinkle in his eye and with obvious joy in playing this character.ĭuchovny delivers the dialogue so naturally, that it could almost be you are watching a fly on the wall documentary. He reminds me of Van Horne in The Witches of Eastwick (1987) as both are charming, confident and charismatic. I know his sexiness is not because he’s played by David Duchovny – as I’ve never found him attractive – so perhaps it’s the way he plays him. So what is lovable about this man? Firstly he’s sexy in a kinda Daryl Van Horne sort of way. Later in the episode, Hank’s shocked and stunned to remeet her as Karen introduces Mia to him as her 16-year-old future stepdaughter and a good friend of his daughter. However, after finding out that Karen has moved on, Hank beds Mia, a pretty young thing he meets and flirts with at a bookshop. Bill is the man she left Hank for leading to their breakup. In this first episode, Karen tells Hank she’s getting married, to Bill. Between them, they have a precocious 12-year-old daughter, Becca (Madeleine Martin). Hank’s also a bit of a babe magnet – cue many scenes of a sexual nature (believe me you will know Duchovny’s arse intimately by the end of this entire series, and there are more “tits and ass” than Outlander (2014-)) – but still holding a torch for his daughter’s mother, Karen (McElhone). And this is a film he hates with a passion. As to his dismay, it’s been turned into an awful romantic comedy called A Crazy Little Thing Called Love starring Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes. Hank’s writer’s block developed after the content of his best-selling and much-praised book God Hates Us All, was diluted and changed for the worse. Later, we learn he also occasionally takes unprescribed drugs. In episode 1, we learn that 40 years old plus, Hank was a successful writer, however, now has writer’s block and a drinking problem. There are also a few famous TV, music and film names to be spotted in the cast including Kathleen Turner, Rob Lowe, Amber Heard and Rick Springfield. Hank is played with great comic panache by David Duchovny throughout the show’s run.Īlso throughout the series, Duchovny is supported fantastically with some great on-screen rapport and chemistry from a supporting cast primarily led by Natascha McElhone, Pamela Adlon and Evan Handler. But as we learn more about him, over time, a different man is revealed. This character when watching him in Californication‘s first episode comes over initially as a bit of a cad and a bounder, and certainly not the type of man your mother would approve of.
