Hank wears this comfortable black lightweight cotton button-up shirt in many third season episodes (“Wish You Were Here”, “Zoso”, “Comings and Goings”, and the climactic finale in “Mia Culpa”), always with the button cuffs undone and rolled partially up his forearms. It has a plain front with no placket and no pocket. It has a single back vent and 3-button cuffs. Edge swelling is present throughout from the notch lapels to the welted breast pocket and straight flapped hip pockets. It is the same familiar thin-corded, single-breasted 2-button jacket that Hank’s been wearing since his introduction in the first episode. The olive brown smoking jacket re-emerges in this episode, having been briefly replaced by a darker and heavier version in the third season premiere. Hank looks up from his phone for a few minutes to deliver some sage advice to the young writers of America. Hank Moody doesn’t dress any differently than usual when working his brief professorial shift, sporting dark button-up shirts and dark jeans typically accompanied by his trademark olive needlecord smoking jacket and Chelsea boots.
…but now I’m pontificating! “The Land of Rape and Honey” (eek, that episode title!) is the most we see of Professor Hank Moody in action-before using his job to get some action-and, of course, he kinda sucks at it. (For example, a brooding student’s suicide attempt is seemingly written in-and quickly written off-as an excuse for Hank to pontificate and spout a few one-liners and find out that one of his hot students is also a stripper.)
Frankly, the show’s third season is where it started to lose my interest with broader humor that seemed more focused on being zany and raunchy than relatable.

If the majority of the estimated 30 strippers vote to unionize, they will join the Actors Equity Association, a union that represents 51,000 professional actors and stage managers. From and Apple Inc to Starbucks Corp, unionization efforts are gaining momentum. Workers across industries and professions are increasingly seeking workplace protections and benefits through unions. Regulators from the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) set a vote date in a memo on Thursday.
