If you’ve been looking forward to the return of Californication, the good news is, the countdown can begin! The not-so-good news is that you have to wait until January to see what happens next.

Guest stars include Michael Ealy (Flash Forward), Zoe Kravitz (Twelve) Stephen Tobolowsky (Glee), Callie Thorne (Rescue Me), Addison Timlin (Cashmere Mafia) and rocker Tommy Lee.
