Review of Franklin and Bash

When I saw a print ad for this show a couple of weeks ago, and saw the faces of Breckin Meyer and Mark-Paul Gosselaar, I didn't even care what the show was about, I knew I had to check it out. Having seen the pilot, and knowing now that the show also includes Malcolm McDowell, that just makes me happier. The premise for the show, however, is not overly strong, and I currently don't see the show lasting long. That won't stop me from watching as long as I can, but boy, am I tired of legal dramas. There are just too many of them that follow the same overdone plot lines. And yes, this show is trying something different with the two renegade lawyers being brought to a proper lawfirm, but still, I don't know that it can be enough to give the show true staying power.

Not with shows like "Damages" and "Drop Dead Diva", true quality shows, out there. Though, I am sure, like me, a lot of people love the two main actors, and they are fantastic to watch, no matter what.
