I love both of these shows so much that it makes my pee pee tingle!

Does anyone else watch them? I think this was the best season yet for Weeds (sooooooo good, yet so disturbing on so many levels, LOL), but I have to say that the last few weeks I have been a little disappointed with Californication. When did Hank lose some of his sluttyness?

I’ve watched both. I like _Weeds,_ but could do without _Californication,_ which seems like a vehicle to get the star’s rocks off, and not much more.

I **love** Weeds. This season hasn’t been as good as the past couple, IMO, but not bad. The show is really getting…weird…but what can you expect? I would’ve run out of good stories after the first few episodes, were I writing it.

I have to agree. I have always thought that Duchovny went a little overboard with the amount of women his character has sex with. It all made sense when he checked himself into rehab for sex addiction.

Still. . . . I love it.

[Mary-Louise Parker,](http://popbytes.com/archive/2007/07/mary-lousie_parker_bares_almost_all_for_weeds_on_showtime.shtml) mmm…yum. David Duchovny…not so much.

I love Weeds but I consider Californication as ending with Season 1. The story was about Hank getting Karen back. I prefer the fairy tale ending to continuing watching it.
