Premiere: August 30
Starring: David Duchovny
Network: Showtime

David Duchovny (The X-Files) returns to series television, but this time he's after alienation, not aliens. In this comedy series, which doesn't begin shooting until next month, he'll play Hank Moody, a drinking, drug-abusing novelist trying to bring up a 13-year-old daughter while carrying a torch for his ex-girlfriend. While the role sounds like a departure from Fox Mulder, Duchovny's guest turns on The Larry Sanders Show as Larry's celeb pal/stalker demonstrated his deadpan comic touch. Can he keep the laughs up for a series? The truth is still out there.
