[The] once-charming contrarianism has gone utterly rancid, leaving us with the unpleasant spectacle of David Duchovny straddled repeatedly by jailbait. Go to Full Review Matt Zoller Seitz Salon.com 01/09/2011
If you watch this series every week, please stop. You're just enabling it. Go to Full Review Aaron Riccio Slant Magazine 01/09/2011
2.5/4
If you're able to get past the inconsistencies of tone, the first eight episodes of the season are still a lot of black-and-blue fun, which is to say they're darkly humorous, prolifically sexual, and purely entertaining. Go to Full Review Stuff.co.nz Staff The Post NZ 08/28/2019
Hank doesn't suffer any real repercussions for his actions, so he has no real reason to change. Go to Full Review Matt Joseph We Got This Covered 04/03/2018
It was a solid season when all is said and done and I'm looking forward to the return of Mr. Hank Moody. Hopefully we won't have to wait too long. Go to Full Review Eric Sundermann Hollywood.com 02/21/2013

06/23/2018 This has become redundant. See more 12/03/2017 One of the Best Season of the Series. Good story line, too many screw ups and the season where the fate of Hank is decided. This season also has best Guest actors of the series (Carla Gugino's acting is a watch for) . See more 08/29/2016 After a stupendous first three episodes that were looking to be the start of the season I've been waiting for, the rest gets less serious. And the finale was underwhelming, unlike the first three seasons. Carla Gugino and Rob Lowe have great turns and should've been in more! See more 03/31/2014 After a weak season 2 and mediocre season 3, Caifornication finds its own voice again through great script in season 4. Hank continues his escapades, but sense of pushing things so far at the expense of loved ones becomes prominent and poignantly expressed this season, with a sense of things about to fall apart being conveyed strongly. Reignited my interest in the series. See more Read all reviews
