Californication!!"Californication" is an analogous series in an age of digital "junk". And David Duchovny seems to be made to accurately miemen this analog protagonist, which is necessary for the success of the series. My appreciation for this actor has risen exorbitantly through this series.

Anyone checked out the new Vic & Bob comedy House Of Fools? It's showing on BBC2 UK at the moment. Completely deranged and takes a few episodes to get into it but worth checking out.

The Office, after mike scott left, it went downhill

Re: What do you think is the funniest tv series?
I like the obvious ones like South park too but for a more (loosely speaking) grown-up show I`ll go with Psych.
But classic sitcom wise I`ll still stick with Red Dwarf being a watcher since it first got launched on BBC2 (I still have a VHS collection).... seen the American pilot on youtube but don`t be put off if you`ve not tried the real thing :)

Re: What do you think is the funniest tv series?
Colbert, Ferguson (I said "idiots" a lot during this show), Simpsons, BBT, Psych. Seinfeld is too old to remember but I still want to quote CYE a lot especially when something is "pretty pretty good" or I'm doing a "Larry David" for some reason which usually involves doing the right thing incorrectly. If you have seen it you'd know what I mean. No one ever gets his eyeball gag when he tries to detect lies unless they have seen it but most people are not cool enough to have seen it. I mean how does one describe "Better Call Saul" to the clueless. It's pretty hard to explain how it is both humorous and tragic in the exact same moment.

The word "glacial" comes to mind.
I understand that it's a "thing" for the show to let scenes run on ad nauseum but I also understand why no one else is inclined to do it.

Pain is the basic foundation stone of humour and I'm pretty sure that type of character was old even before Charlie Chaplin brought The Little Tramp to life.
Don't get me wrong I like the show but I'm of the opinion that it's not of yet the great thing most people seem to think it is.
That and as been stated elsewhere,unlike Breaking Bad,Better Call Saul is saddled with a certain predictability.

Maybe, or maybe we are watching the story of how his twin developed a law practice, then handed it over to him. Totally unpredictable if they did that.

Well I thought the way they aged Jimmy's son about 14 years in only 7 years was hilariously bad. So maybe it was a comedy after all.
