TNT premieres a new comedy show tonight called Franklin & Bash, starring Mark-Paul Gosselaar and Breckin Meyer.
Naturally, they're too oddball lawyers, who are always ready to chase down some new clients. Peter (played by Gosselaar), is the "nice guy", who connects well with judges and juries, while Jared (Meyer) doesn't like playing by the rules and enjoys sticking it to authority figures. Despite their tactics and flair for the dramatic, they catch the eye of Stanton Infeld (played by Malcolm McDowell), who is the owner of Infeld Daniels, a top law firm in Los Angeles. He recruits them to bring some fresh blood into the firm and they end up working closely with the brilliant Carmen and agoraphobic Pindar.
Infeld's nephew, Damien Karp, isn't exactly pleased with his uncle's decision to hire Peter and Jared. He's got his own plans for his uncle's law firm and they don't include the two new lawyers. Add to that the fact that Karp's girlfriend Hanna (another lawyer in the firm) is drawn to Jared and you have a recipe for disaster.
The show will focus not only on their clients, but the friendship between Peter and Jared now that they've entered the corporate world.
Below we have a long trailer for tonight's series premiere of Franklin & Bash, as well as a handy character guide to help you keep track of who is who. Franklin & Bash will air on Wednesday nights on TNT at 9:00 p.m.
Peter Bash is a fearless lawyer whose charm does more than just amuse jurors and anger judges; it wins cases. When it comes to his clients, Peter holds nothing back. He will pull anything he can from his bag of legal tricks to secure a victory. Outside the courtroom, Peter is a confident ladies man with a killer body – and has no modesty about showing it off. He’s also the best friend a guy could have.
