“With its unique blend of lyricism and excess, Californication has been one of our groundbreaking signature series,” said Showtime entertainment president David Nevins. “We will always be indebted to Tom Kapinos for leading the creative charge on this memorable comedy, and to David Duchovny for making us root for an unapologetic hedonist like Hank Moody.” As for how things will end for Hank, Nevins would not drop clues but assured that “Tom has carefully planned the final chapter of Hank’s journey and has brought it to a beautiful and satisfying conclusion for new and long-time fans alike.”

When we last left Hank Moody and company, Hank decided against going on the road with Faith and Atticus in favor of returning home to give his on-off relationship with Karen another shot, while Charlie and Marcy remarried following a seasons-long separation and divorce. Season seven picks up with Hank working on the television adaptation of Santa Monica Cop, the never-released film he worked on (and was fired from) during season five, and Charlie and Marcy navigating life as a couple after years of being apart in that capacity. In addition to the new digs, Hank will have to deal with old-school executive producer Rick Rath, a writing team whose sensibilities might not necessarily match his, and the reappearance of an old friend who could destroy what chance he had at reuniting with Karen for good.

The final season of Californication is set to premiere April 2014, along with the sixth season of Nurse Jackie.

But that’s not all, as Hank’s personal life has begun to unravel once again. Last season ended with him eschewing a life on the road with Faith for another shot at being with Karen, but that attempt at domestic bliss might not survive the arrival of Julia (Heather Graham), a former friend who threatens to tear down everything Hank and Karen have built recently. Charlie and Marcy, meanwhile, are still together after reuniting in the sixth season finale, only now they’re facing an offer from Stu that could change everything.

This will be Lowe’s sixth episode portraying Nero, dating back to 2011’s “Suicide Solution” and including this year’s “Mad Dogs and Englishmen”, where Eddie partied with Hank at Atticus’s drug-fueled soiree and took a shine to Karen. He currently stars on NBC’s Parks and Recreation as small-town bureaucrat Chris Traeger, having previously been a regular on the likes of The West Wing, Brothers & Sisters, and The Lyon’s Den.

The seventh season of Californication, which will also feature guest appearances from the likes of Brandon T. Jackson and Mercedes Masohn, is currently shooting in Los Angeles and will debut in January 2014 on Showtime.

Will you be watching Californication next season? How do you think Hank will handle Eddie Nero being on his show? Is there a chance that Hank manages to keep things together with Karen and adapt well to working in television?
