In the title sequence to HBO Showtime drama Californication, David Duchovny is shown holding up a magazine, ‘Book Critic’, with an article on/by someone called Kieren Rhys. As far as I can tell, both the magazine and Rhys are fictional. Does anyone know anything more?
Update, June 22, 2013: Almost five years later, we’ve got an answer: “Kieren” and “Rhys” are the children of Californication property master, James “Skip” Torvinen, who checked in to tell us so in the comments, below.
Update, September 5, 2020: a screenshot of a “Kieren Rhys” chair at the Californication set was posted to Reddit (copy of the image here).
I heard the two names belong crew member’s children.

Gotcha. Updated post. Thanks.
Not sure but the name also appears on a chair on the movie set of the season 5 finale
Interesting trivia. Thank you! /Admin
They are twins that lives in Van Nuys ca. Sweetest little boys… They have the most loving parents… I think their dad work for the industry… I love Californication… When I saw their names … I knew it can only be them… I hope and wish them good health… And hope they are always laughing and happy.
Yup, my kids.
I’ve confirmed, via ‘Skip’s’ email address, that he is indeed the property master for Californication. Awesome, that answers my question. Thank you, Skip – I’ve updated the post. /Admin
