Jared Franklin (Breckin Meyer, ?Robot Chicken?) and Peter Bash (Mark-Paul Gosselaar, ?NYPD Blue?) have a funny way of practicing the law. From making out with a plaintiff, to fist fighting on the courtroom steps, to chugging beers as evidence, these rogue lawyers will pull any wild stunts to win a client?s case. But their unorthodox methods get results. That?s why eccentric attorney Stanton Infeld (Malcolm McDowell, ?The Artist?) asks them to join his high-powered law firm. Prepare for a culture clash as Franklin & Bash teach the old legal system a few new tricks. The complete first season features guest stars Jason Alexander (?Seinfeld?), Beau Bridges (?The Descendants?), Harry Hamlin (?L.A. Law?), Tom Arnold (?Sons of Anarchy?) and Tricia Helfer (?Battlestar Galactica?).In the first of the 10 episodes (on three discs) that comprise the debut season of the TNT seriesFranklin & Bash, attorneys and best buds Jared Franklin (Breckin Meyer) and Peter Bash (Mark-Paul Gosselaar) represent a prostitute who, at their urging, starts to disrobe in court. In episode two, they're retained by a beautiful woman who the prosecution claims "copulated her husband to death"; in episode three, Bash makes out with their client (a woman who says she lost her job at a skin magazine because she was "too sexy") while she's on the witness stand. And so, your honor, we may conclude the following:Franklin & Bash, the show and the characters, are preoccupied with sex (well, notevery episode is about that--just most of them, including the ones in which the guys defend a couple of pole dancers and a teacher accused of sleeping with a student); even by TV-lawyer standards, this show has almost nothing to do with actual legal procedure (if the stories, likeLaw & Order's, are "ripped from the headlines," the headlines were inPenthouse orHustler); and, most important, it's funny, smart, and consistently entertaining. In the pilot episode, the boys so impress opposing counsel Stanton Infeld (Malcolm McDowell, thoroughly enjoying himself) that the eccentric millionaire invites them to join his mega-firm ("as lawyers?" Bash asks). Which they do, of course, but only on the condition that they can continue practicing law in their own peculiar way. "Our job is not to follow the law," quoth Franklin, "[it's] to make the law." They also make a few enemies, including Infeld's lawyer nephew Damien (Reed Diamond), as well as friends (another lawyer, played by Garcelle Beauvais, takes a shine to Jared). Most of all, they have a good time, playing video games, constantly spewing pop-culture references, jumping into the hot tub with scantily clad lovelies, and generally being cheeky and irreverent. Guest stars include Jason Alexander, Tom Arnold, Beau Bridges, Fred Willard, and James Van Der Beek; among the bonus features are a gag reel, some short featurettes, and a few fake Franklin & Bash law-firm commercials.--Sam Graham
