David Duchovny Gets Chili Peppers Hot Under the Collar
David Duchovny by James Dimmock/Showtime
Who didn't see this one coming? Yesterday, the
Red Hot Chili Peppers filed a suit against Showtime for giving its midlife crisis dramedy the same name -
Californication - as their hit 1999 album. (Um, wouldn't the network's lawyers have, like, checked on the legality of reusing a famous title before they, you know, used it?) In Showtime's defense, Alabamashtupping and Ohioh-oh-oh-my-God-yessss! just don't have the same ring to them. -
