Of the new shows this season, this has by far been my favorite.

I've always really enjoyed David Duchovny as an actor, heck i'd likely say he's amongst my faves...love how his personality & humor breathe into all the shows/movies he does! :)

Anyway, he's the reason i looked at the show in the first place, & i've not been disappointed.
Okay, the promise of hawt [sometimes naked women] didn't hurt either, but there's a lot more to the show than that.

Thoughts?

It's pretty cool.

When he got high and barfed on that girl he was banging doggie-style, then again on the artwork.. awkward.

It's surprisingly better than I thought it would be...after the first 2 eps, I thought it was just another vapid Showtime drama with lots of tits and not a lot of substance...but go figure, I'm still watching.

"David Duchovny heads up the cast in this comedy about a novelist with sex and drug addictions who is struggling to raise his daughter half the time, while having problems with his ex-girlfriend."

Wtf? That sounds like a comedy?

It actually has some quick humorous jabs in it. The show is pretty nifty overall and when my friend suggested it to me, I kind of scoffed at it. "What do I care about some writer going from NYC to LA?" But it actually turned out to be pretty good.

Also, for people who are thinking about tuning in... next Monday is the last episode of the season, so you can start now and pretty much watch it in one fel swoop!

Black/Dark humor. Not "cream-pie in the face" or "ugly, dumb, fat guy with hot wife does stupid things and learns lessons" humor.

It's the very best kind of humor.

And yes, season finale is next :(

I just hope it's coming back for another season.

It's already been renewed for a second season.

All HBO has left is "The Wire" which is awesome.
