Showtime is all new tonight starting at 9p with Shameless followed by House of Lies and ending the night with Californication. Shameless is back and those Gallaghers are still as messed up as they were last season. Frank learns if you say to someone at a bar that you bet them do something for $10,000, you better be prepared to pay up. When he doesn’t have the money the collector takes something that will change the Gallaghers forever. So tune in for one the most dysfunctional family on television.
Then at 10p House of Lies starring Don Cheadle and Kristen Bell manages to be the perfect fit with Shameless and Californication. Cheadle plays Marty Kaan who leads a group of employees who go to companies and reorganize them so that they will make more money. Kaan lives with his father and son who wants to be his daughter. His ex-wife is a competitor and she is also an addict who is too messed up to care for their child. Bell plays Jeannie Van Der Hooven a woman who wants Kaan’s job and will do anything to get it. They are an unorthodox group and together they make a workable comedy to enjoy on Sunday night’s.
The best is saved for last because David Duchovny is back as Hank Moody in Californication. The show takes place a few years after last season. Moody is living in NYC and having women problems as always. He is called back to LA where Karen is married to Mr Mangina, Becca is dating a mini-Hank, Marcy is married to the producer with the big d!ck and Charlie is still Charlie. On the way back to LA, Hank meets a beautiful woman that he totally hits it off with but their relationship ends when they leave the airport…or so he thinks. Charlie got Hank a job writing a sceenplay for a 50 Cent like rapper played by RZA who is dating that woman he met on the plane. Now back to RZA he slays it as the gangsta Apocalypse Samurai. He adds a dynamic to the show that has never been done as well before. He is the ying to Moody’s yang. Californication is having its best season and you don’t want to miss a single second of it.
