Thought the writing was predictable and sophomoric most of the season, although seeing Vince struggle and show some self-doubt was actually refreshing. No way someone can be so confident/lackadaisical at the same time. Although the Martin Scorsese ending was sort of cheezy, it was cool in that it gives Vince another chance at a comeback before living at home with his mom becomes permanent. (Why did they go back to Queens so quickly?!?)
The Turtle subplot was a nice contradiction to Vince's struggles.
Californication is the best cable show on currently though. Sex, drugs, and more sex...oh yeah.
