Californication pisses me off

I’m okay with most of the ridiculousness of the ongoing homage to David Duchovny’s sex addiction as it plays out week after week on the show.  Im good with  him banging every woman within eight feet of him.  I’m fine with the fact that his baby mama who is the most beautiful woman on the show absolutely puts up with it with a cavalier “oh that Hank” attitude and in turn, never sleeps with anyone other than Hank herself.  In this respect, the show objectifies every female character on the show as a sex object, which I am good with.

What I’m not okay with is that every male character on the show, by design to accomodate Duchovny’s massive monument to himself, has to be an over the top caricature of weakness.  His agent is super weak on every level, the man he stole his baby mama from was a wooden old bore, the rock star guy didn’t have Hank’s moral character (?), the professor guy is repulsive, even Rick Springfield was willing to pimp himself out as a joke on the show, to absolutely ensure Duchovny’s alpha status by direct comparison.  In this respect, Duchovny is objectifying men, and that is where I draw the line.

You could at least make it a race!  

Also his daughter is super annoying.
