Seasons

Season 1

12 episodes · 2007

Novelist Hank Moody struggles to help raise his 13-year-old daughter, while carrying a torch for his ex-girlfriend Karen. His obsession with honesty and his self-destructive behavior are simultaneously destroying and enriching his career. . . all this in the city he loathes the most: Los Angeles.

Season 2

12 episodes · 2008

This season, Hank and Karen will finally rekindle their long-lost romance. But their road to love will hit a major snag when Hank's new job as biography writer for a legendary music producer lands him waist-deep in his three favorite vices — sex, drugs, and rock & roll. Meanwhile, daughter Becca is growing up way too fast; best friend and agent Charlie and wife Marcy are working through the fallout from last season's affair; and Hank's newest book is a huge hit — for someone else, who stole the manuscript from him and is basking in her newfound, totally unearned fame. But nothing gets good old Hank down for long — it's all just another day in the city for our favorite hedonistic scribe.

Season 3

12 episodes · 2009

This season Hank Moody’s life, like the economy, is officially turned upside down. The lack of writing assignments forces him to get a “real” job as a college professor while trying to keep wild child Becca on the straight and narrow with Karen still working in New York. Can he learn to keep “regular” hours and inspire the next generation of scribes? First, he'll have to stay on the right side of the dean of students, the dean’s wife and a teacher’s assistant who’s immune to his charms… Meanwhile, Charlie’s returned to the mainstream -- he’s ditched the porn world for a job at a legitimate agency. His only problem is a boss/agency head who’s more interested in him than her clients (hello, Rick Springfield!). It would all be manageable with Marcy by his side, but she’s still bitter over his affair and is even back on the dating scene, which is further complicated since the two are platonically sharing the house – who can afford a divorce in a recession?

Season 4

12 episodes · 2011

Hank Moody is back and he couldn’t be more screwed. A one-night misunderstanding has landed him in serious hot water, but his troubles don’t end there. Hank's literary sex scandal has caused a sensation, even as he prepares to defend himself in court and tries to get Karen and Becca to speak to him, and a movie based on his stolen book begins production.

Season 5

12 episodes · 2012

Hank Moody has become hip hop’s most wanted. Rich and powerful rap mogul extraordinaire Samurai Apocalypse is pimped-out famous – and hell bent on getting our bad boy writer into more trouble than he’s ever known. With Charlie chasing strange and pining over Marcy, and an insufferable 20-year-old Hank wannabe dating his beloved daughter Becca, Hank’s got more on his plate than ever in the town he hates to love.

Season 6

12 episodes · 2013

This season Hank collaborates on a musical with a rock star while taking up with his beautiful muse, Charlie and Stu compete for Marcy, Marcy falls under the spell of a radical feminist, and Becca drops out of college to become a writer.

Season 7

12 episodes · 2014

He’s come a long way. After blowing every chance at love and happiness – and burning every bridge in Hollywood – Hank Moody is finally ready to put the past to bed. But as always, old indiscretions turn up to bite him squarely in the ass. Could it be too late to pull off a happy ending?
