Providing viewers with a dose of comedy and drama, the show has earned itself an impressive rating of 8.7/10 on the reputed imdb website. Starring David Duchovny in the lead role, the series is loosely based on the life of well-known American writer and poet, Charles Bukowski.

Karen, his steady girlfriend and Becca, their daughter also move with him. The role of Karen is played by Natascha mcelhone and that of Becca by Madeleine Martin. Apart from writer’s block the writer was struggling to control his irresistible desires like alcohol, sex and drugs.

His aim is to prove to his girlfriend that he’s capable of being a faithful and responsible partner as well as a caring dad. The various conflicting circumstances that ensue in Moody’s day-to-day life and the situations he blames his writer’s block on are what create 30 minute episodes that are full of laughter and fun evoking in the audience a good dose of sympathy for Moody’s predicament.

Moody’s agent and his wife are two more major characters in the series played by Evan Handler and Pamela Adlon respectively. Damian Young plays the part of Karen’s fianc Bill Lewis. Mia Lewis is Bill’s teenage daughter played by Madeline Zima. Apart from these main characters there are some tiny roles which take the story ahead. All together the show is enjoyable and worth watching.

Not surprisingly, the show has won three awards so far, not to mention numerous nominations. Among the three winners are two consecutive Emmy awards – for Outstanding Cinematography, in 2008 (Peter Levy) and 2009 (Michael Weaver). The third award – a Golden Globe in 2008 – was won by Duchovny himself for Best Performance by an Actor in a Television Series. Some of the nominations include three consecutive Golden Globe nominations for David Duchovny’s convincing portrayal of Hank Moody (including the one he won in 2008).
