Re: Californication
Season 3 done. If I recall I think it started out decent but by the last episode I found the whole Hank/Karen On/Off again thing getting tedious. I was getting whiplash by the end. And of course Mia comes back for the last couple episodes to make it even worse. Moved on to Season 4. So far more Mia ...
