I really did consider giving this 3.5 instead of 4 as its guilty of exactly the same crimes as Heroes season 2. Its a little too polished and a little too clear about its intent to be truly great. But despite itself it manages to carry off its entertaining premise.
So if you fancy kicking back and watching Hank Moody, the stereotypical haunted novelist who's struggling with selling his soul to the man whilst torturing himself with a diet of easy sex and cheap drugs to allay the guilt for a failed relationship with the mother of his daughter, then this is the show for you.
As you might predict with such a ripe premise its pretty funny stuff, however the writers do well to keep it fresh throughout the season. You'd have thought such a premise might become a little strained 12 shows in. Although saying that I think they may struggle to make the second season as entertaining?
