Californication

Red Hot Chili Peppers filed a lawsuit on November 19, 2007 against Showtime Networks over the name of the series, which is also the name of the band's 1999 album and hit single. They state in the lawsuit that the series "constitutes a false designation of origin, and has caused, and continues to cause, a likelihood of confusion, mistake, and deception as to source, sponsorship, affiliation, and/or connection in the minds of the public." Showtime Networks argued that the band did not in fact create the term Californication. They point out that the term appeared in print in Time magazine in 1972, while show producer, Tom Kapinos, cites the inspiration as coming from a bumper sticker he saw in the '70s that read, "Don't Californicate Oregon." The lawsuit was settled out of court.

All iPhones are clearly not being used for calls when characters have telephone conversations using them. Sometimes they are clearly on the home screen of the phone or on the dial pad of the phone--not mid phone call.
