Californication - Season 6 - Q&A with David Duchovny

Share on Reddit

Thanks to Mariantonietta for the heads up.

Duchovny spoke with Rolling Stone recently about the new season, his dreams of having a Beatle on the show, why Moody is a true romantic and the rock star he patterned Moody after.

With Hank writing a rock opera, this year has more of a music vibe than any season since the second.
Oh, sure. Even though with RZA Hank was kind of in the rap world, he was kind of an interloper. But this is more of a rock & roll year, and that's where Hank lives. One of the fun things for me is I started to teach myself guitar last year, and Tom Kapinos knows that I was learning, so he threaded through the year little bits where Hank had to play guitar so I had to keep getting better and taking lessons.

What was the first song you learned on guitar?
I think "Yoshimi Battles the Pink Robots."

And now you get to bring this skill to the stage in the season finale, where Hank joins others onstage at L.A.'s Greek Theater.
You were there, so you saw we got up there and we played, but I wouldn't call it a skill. I made sure my amp was turned way down. If in Spinal Tap it goes to 11, my amp goes to negative one.

Will we ever see you in a musical?
I may be learning guitar, but I'll never be able to sing. So I would say no, there are some things that God has prohibited from the beginning.

Tell us about the musical guest stars on this season.
I really enjoyed meeting Steve. He was on for a lot of the year, so he was kind of a fixture, and he was great. And Manson is a really bright guy, really interesting guy, and I guess he's a huge fan of the show and signed into hotels as Hank Moody. Somehow that came to the attention of Tom Kapinos, and they started talking, and he ended up doing a few episodes with us.

If you could have one musician guest star on the show in the future, who would it be?
There are so many. I'd wanna say Keith Richards, but he's kind of like Pirates of the Caribbean now. McCartney – I gotta have a Beatle.
