Everything on NETFLIX I had either watched or had no desire to watch, but eventually Californication scrolled across the screen and it had my attention. I read the summary of the show and didn't really feel like it was the show for me. so I found something else to watch that night and skipped over it.
The very next day I found myself in the same dilemma......
"What do I want to watch?"
Again Californication scrolled across the screen and all I could hear was "Watch me!"
Everything I had ever herd about the show was positive and there wasn't anything else catching my eye.
So I watched the first episode and before it was over I was hooked.....everything about it just made me want to watch more. I wanted to find out every fucked up detail about Hanks life.
As I kept watching I began to want to know every detail about everyone in the show and even began to worry if something bad happend to anyone.
If I had a complaint about this show (which I don't) it would be that it stresses me out.
If a show stresses me out then their job is done.
“Certain things leave you in your life and certain things stay with you. And that's why we're all interested in movies- those ones that make you feel, you still think about. Because it gave you such an emotional response, it's actually part of your emotional make-up, in a way.”
― Tim Burton, Burton on Burton
So if you want a good watch, something with substance that is going to stay with you far after you have finished it, then you won't regret watching Californiacation.
The first season is a 10 out of 10 in my opinion and could be a stand alone season.....but what I have watched of the second season it is still just as good.
