Hank Moody returns for another season of getting laid, getting paid, and “wrestling with the blank page.” However, with Karen in NY and Hank raising Becca on his own, the getting laid part isn’t so easy anymore. This is evident in the opening of the premiere, with Hank asleep as a naked woman rides him. He explains to the woman as she storms out, this daddy thing isn’t so simple, he barely has time to even “get loaded” anymore. Becca has time though, especially with Hank’s dope…

Hank is also having trouble getting his latest work published. Devoted agent Charlie Runkle isn’t living the life of banging porn stars or jacking off in his office anymore. He’s uncomfortably under the tumb of Sue Collini (Kathleen Turner), his perverted boss with hazy sexual harrassment beliefs. I actually couldn’t believe that was Kathleen Turner at first; this is the same woman from Body Heat?! It looks like Bizarro Kathleen Turner ate Matty Walker.

This episode was pretty mediocre but set us up for a season of Hank nailing TAs and (hopefully) nailing Felcia, played by the sultry Embeth Davidtz. — That mangina shot went on way too long.
