Dirty old men need jobs, too

I've just been watching the pilot of Showtime's new comedy Californication, starring David Duchovny as Duchovny a writer who moves from New York to Los Angeles and goes into a hilariously dissolute downward spiral of sex, drugs, booze and more sex. (The show debuts Monday at 10:30 p.m.; you'll be able to read a review here on Sunday.) And it reminded me of something Duchovny said last month during the TV critics' press tour. A critic, noting that Duchovny's character unwittingly goes to bed with a 16-year-old, asked how it felt "to be playing the first male lead in TV series history who has sex with a minor." Duchovny thought about a moment, then replied: "I gotta update my resume."
