Why Californication might be annoying:

    Californication ripped off The Red Hot Chilli Peppers 1999 album of obviously the same name. The Peppers filed a lawsuit.
    There are some Apple product placements.
    The Australian Christian Lobby attacked the series, as the opening scene was a nun performing fellatio.
    New Zealand's Family First pressured advertisers by calling for a boycott.
    There is pot smoking and puking.
    Alessandra Stanley of the New York Times wrote 'it doesn't have enough wit or sense... to be very convincing.' She called it the 'male payback for Sex and the City.'
    New Yorker's Nancy Franklin labeled it as 'soft-porn,' saying the characters and story lacked depth.
    LA Weekly's Robert Abele panned it as a 'dishonest, unfunny, dispiritingly crude show.'
    It treats women as sex objects (see Not Annoying).

Why Californication might not be annoying:

    It treats women as sex objects (see Annoying).
    It gives uptight Conservative groups something else to meddle in and stop independent thought.
    There is tons of nudity including a scene with Paula Marshall.
    Because Tom Kapinos also created 'Dawson's Creek,' it gets mentioned in this series.
    Robert Bianco of USA Today wrote the show will not appeal to prudes and that is good because it would be wasted on them.
    The project is centered around David Duchovny, who perfectly portrays the guy who does not appreciate his great life.
