"Californication" is a smart, sexy and very funny series from the mind of David Duchovny and Tom Kapinos. 

Lucky for us, Evan Handler (Sex and the City) and Pam Adlon (Lucky Louie) make such riveting supporting players.

Natascha McElhone and Madeleine Martin round out Hank's fractured family. 

McElhone has the physique of an ex model, a regal neck with exquisite features.  Martin's gaze and eyes possess an older, wiser soul lurking inside; she is splendid as the daughter who pines for her parents to be with each other again. 

Now, the edge-of-the-seat wedding of Karen and Bill is about to go down.  Will Hank object? Will Karen come to her senses?  Will Charlie get played by Dani?  Will Mia get away with stealing Hank's manuscript? Will Hank ever fix his Porsche's busted right headlight?

Don’t miss the Californication season finale tonight 10:30 only on Showtime.

I started watching this show in the middle of this season and I was immediately hooked. The writing is so natural for many of the experiences we share between each other and ourselves. What a great examination of relationships and how they influence everything in our lives!

You Can't Always Get What You Want Lyrics
» Rolling Stones

[chorus]
I saw her today at a reception
A glass of wine in her hand
I knew she would meet her connection
At her feet was her footloose man

No, you can't always get what you want
You can't always get what you want
You can't always get what you want
And if you try sometime you find
You get what you need

I saw her today at the reception
A glass of wine in her hand
I knew she was gonna meet her connection
At her feet was her footloose man

You can't always get what you want
You can't always get what you want
You can't always get what you want
But if you try sometimes you might find
You get what you need

Oh yeah, hey hey hey, oh...

And I went down to the demonstration
To get my fair share of abuse
Singing, 'We're gonna vent our frustration
If we don't we're gonna blow a 50-amp fuse'
Sing it to me now...

You can't always get what you want
You can't always get what you want
You can't always get what you want
But if you try sometimes well you just might find
You get what you need
Oh baby, yeah, yeah!

I went down to the Chelsea drugstore
To get your prescription filled
I was standing in line with Mr. Jimmy
And man, did he look pretty ill
We decided that we would have a soda
My favorite flavor, cherry red
I sung my song to Mr. Jimmy
Yeah, and he said one word to me, and that was 'dead'
I said to him

You can't always get what you want, no!
You can't always get what you want (tell ya baby)
You can't always get what you want (no)
But if you try sometimes you just might find
You get what you need
Oh yes! Woo!

You get what you need--yeah, oh baby!
Oh yeah!

I saw her today at the reception
In her glass was a bleeding man
She was practiced at the art of deception
Well I could tell by her blood-stained hands

You can't always get what you want
You can't always get what you want
You can't always get what you want
But if you try sometimes you just might find
You just might find
You get what you need

You can't always get what you want (no, no baby)
You can't always get what you want
You can't always get what you want
But if you try sometimes you just might find
You just might find
You get what you need, ah yes...

I Tivo'd the finale and just got to watch...so extremely, exceptionally fantastic! I cried and clapped -- some of the best, most unexpected TV that I have seen in a long while. I am s glad the seried is coming back for a 2nd year. Kudos to the writers for hooking me in with wonderfully complex characters who are very human and so fun and engaging to watch. Between Weeds and Californication, Showtime has my devoted attention and $13 each month.
