Watch The Season Premieres Of Dexter And Californication

David Duchovny And Jay Leno Sidestep the Sexy Elephant In The Room
5:45AM Kyle Buchanan | Though David Duchovny’s publicist surely slapped a “no sex addiction questions” proviso on his public appearances, it’s a hard subject to avoid when the show he’s promoting is about, y’know, having sex a lot. More »
The Basics Are Gonna Be Played On Californication!
11:38AM Jess McGuire | Defamer Australia favourites The Basics are about to launch a tour with Japanese rock’n'rollers The Bawdies, and as The Basics are renown for being a phenomenal live act, you’d be stupid in the head to miss them.
Two thirds of the band – you can call them Tim Heath and Kris Schroeder when you scream out their names at gigs – are devastatingly handsome red heads who make the bitches swoon with just a strum of their chosen stringed instruments (gingers are the new black, discuss) and the remaining third is the ever adorable skin-hitting (that means he plays the drums! I don’t mean in the Shoop rap sense!) Wally “Gotye” De Backer, and together they are Captain Planet… Planet Rock.
God. Even I don’t know what I’m saying anymore. Oh yeah! I remember – the dudes just informed their Facebook fans of the following thrilling update.
Exciting news – Sunday night’s episode of Californication will feature The Basics version of the Sonic’s classic ‘Have Love Will Travel’ and will play during a rather prominent scene – you’ll see.
Let me guess… Hank’s sexing something or someone he shouldn’t be?
If you wanna go and catch The Basics and The Bawdies when they hit the road, check after the jump for tour dates. More » 
The Truth (About Billy Bob Thornton) Is Out There for a Cuckolded David Duchovny
4:12AM Kyle Buchanan | It’s been a rough year for the Duchovny-Leonis, what with David’s well-publicised trip to sex rehab, the general public’s crushing indifference to a way-too-late X-Files movie, and the sad lack of bangable extras at the recent Czechoslovakian street fair in Manhattan. Few were surprised when the patient Tea Leoni announced her separation from Duchovny yesterday, but now the Daily Mail is claiming Duchovny instigated the breakup because Leoni was cheating — with Billy Bob Thornton: More »
‘Californication’ Features Fictional Sex-Addict David Duchovny On A Fictional Defamer
6:00AM Seth | As if the borders distinguishing the fictional sex-junkie David Duchovny plays on Californication from the background-player-deflowering poon-addict he plays in real life weren’t hazy enough, along comes another wrinkle to further confuse the issue—and this one involves us! On last week’s Californication, Duchovny’s character Hank is in jail for assaulting a police officer, where he’s visited by ex-girlfriend Karen and their teenage daughter, Becca. At one point, Becca holds out an iPhone bearing his mugshot and says, “Check it out: You’re on Defamer.” Hank responds that he thinks it’s “a pretty good picture,” and we’d agree—though not nearly as good as some others we’ve run. If your brain hasn’t yet collapsed like a deflated beach ball from all the meta-ness, just wait until Tea Leoni stops by HQ to guest edit for a week. More »
8:20AM Kyle Buchanan | And he’s out! After a long, arduous stay in sex rehab, David Duchovny and his wife, Tea Leoni, were snapped at the Czech Street Festival in New York City this weekend. Roger Friedman will be pleased by his choice of coasts, though the actor will certainly have to return to Los Angeles at some point to shoot the soon-to-be-awkward third season of Californication. Tea, might we recommend the newest in fully-transparent glass Star Waggons? [ONTD] More »
David Duchovny Totally Into Internet Porn, If By ‘Internet Porn’ You Mean Banging Extras
3:00AM Defamer Hollywood | When Californication star David Duchovny announced he was checking into sex rehab, Fox News columnist Roger Friedman suggested it was due to an internet porn addiction — a theory that didn’t sit well with our commenters, who remembered a suddenly relevant blind item about a TV star who’d been following extras off the set for some very special “overtime.” Today, the NY Daily News rebuts Friedman and confirms the latter rumour, hearing from the National Enquirer that Duchovny’s wife Tea Leoni was on to his elaborate scheme to trade sex for SAG vouchers: More »
‘My Name Is David Duchovny, And I’m Imagining You Without Panties Right Now’
2:38AM Defamer Hollywood | It was announced in a statement released yesterday that X-Files star David Duchovny is the latest star to voluntarily enter rehab, though his stint is a markedly different one than the typical two-week Promises tour accorded most penitent, crisis-managed celebs. No, Duchovny — who played a sex-obsessed character in the softcore drama Red Shoe Diaries, the 2005 film Trust the Man, and currently essays one as bed-hopping novelist Hank Moody on the Showtime series Californication — is seeking treatment for sex addiction. Though currently married to actress Tea Leoni (with whom he has two children: daughter Madelaine West, 9, and son Kyd, 6), the actor has fended off rumours about his sex life for over a decade, according to Us Weekly: More »
Red Hot Chili Pepper Sues Showtime For Not Coming Up With Their Own Cool Word That Means Screwing In The Golden State
8:10AM Defamer Hollywood | If you came to Californication without knowing much about the Showtime series, you’d be forgiven if you’d have expected the familiar Red Hot Chili Peppers song “Californication” to play under the show’s titles; failing that, you’d think at least some reference to the band’s hit 1999 album of the same name might figure into the action or back story. As it turns out, however, no permission from the band was secured by the network or the show’s creators, who merely saw in the lexical hybrid a catchy, succinct term covering the shows primary themes of fucking and life in Southern California.
