David Duchovny Films Californication at UCLA

Posted on May 7, 2009 - 3:23pm by kirstie The new season of Showtime's Emmy-winning series Californication kicks off in the fall, and the show's cast and crew were spotted filming at UCLA this past Friday.

(Spoiler-wary fans should be warned that minor spoilers lie ahead.)

Captivated students looked on as the show's star, David Duchovny, shot a scene in
which his character, Hank Moody, a mischievous, woman-loving writer with a big heart, chases
a laptop thief, tackles him, and proceeds to be castigated by an attractive woman who
mistakenly believes Hank stole her computer.

I was lucky enough to catch the show filming and got a few photos from the set.

Rumor has it that Duchovny's character Hank will be landing a position as a university
professor this season, which may explain the show's use of UCLA's campus. Fans of the series know that Hank has the tendency to attract trouble wherever he goes, so his role as a
professor will undoubtedly bring big laughs and drama to the third season of
Californication.

No official season three premiere date has been released yet, but be sure to catch
Californication, one of the best shows currently on TV, this fall on Showtime.
