today on larry king the stars of franklin's bash mark paul goslar and brechin myre on their new costar had a lock where we're both nude in the scene with her sitting next to her with our codpieces on the phone. and i call mine is a cod and being a part of two iconic ninety's hits you a fan of that child was a friend that sort of this is that once you go in makes up these stories i did not make anything of you were not nice and you had weird yellow hair and you were rude plus i have a hundred bromance sure yeah. that's next on larry king now. welcome to larry king now it is the hit legal series about two unconventional

lawyers and longtime friends who join a buttoned up law firm the show is in its successful third season and joining us today are marc paul goslar who portrays peter bash the slightly more mature and charming half of the duo and breckon meyer who portrays jared franklin the sarcastic slightly snarky other half of the duo shalabi franco and bash airs on wednesdays at nine eastern on t.n.t. how do you explain still with you mock the show's success. with the reform yeah right on right off the bat i think i thought well the show were ny first read it it wasn't your typical legal procedural drama or comedy it was were i through it were both it was really about the relationship between these two so i think the success lies in the fact that this relationship has worked on from day one and we don't even know each other. or first word for each other we already had the job and i had to do with his first i was cast as a guy had just come off of t.n.t.

the other show that only lasted two seasons on and one on. on the air but i was raising a bar which was a legal drama. cut and dry and then when this came on board i thought on i want to play another attorney but it was less about the legal side and more about this relationship have any say in the hiring of him but a bit a little bit yeah i had to try them out and i had a try out a few sizes and the size was just right that the chemistry work right away for you bret yeah i think so we've both kind of grown up doing this since we were kids and then we both take the work series but not each other which i think helps a lot and right from the get go we just kind of goofed off and i think sony we did screens as a part of sony and i think they just out right away are we can buy these guys as pals they have a with this is a new turn to be the bro bowl rance rome and rome is rome this is new but what is this a non gay friendship. lowbrow i mean you know if i have

a hundred bromance sure yeah. i know i do have another one hundred but everyone has but would you click you to click right away yeah i think we did i mean even in that reading there was a sense that we we had to our characters are lifelong friends and there had to be this familiarity with with these characters right from the bat you know when you do a pilot you don't know the other person or some people do have the luxury of working together i mean there's vince vaughn and owen wilson who have just done a film and you know those of those partnerships work that has been massaged over time and for television shows you don't get that luxury is it more of the buddy drama i just fell asleep is won't believe it was boring or your answer board is that no it is this more of the body than the legal yeah i think so i think our show definitely lives or dies by friendship and the procedural stuff is kind of secondary you know larry that's exactly what i just said but i believe it was quicker i said it now we can move on when there is a meeting what i'm saying but in a better on a way out in a better way ok well you know it was when you tried out for this knowing that the

costar would be one of. judges. i think i was i was there there were two other guys and we were all very very different and i just thought once i read the thing i was there are if i get this gig i know i can work with him i know he'll be fun to play with is it more comedy than serious i think so yeah it balances that balance of balance as with the cases we take the case is very seriously but the the what the approach that these two lawyers these two attorneys take this very unorthodox and i creates human tell me about your new boss this year new boss we have the not you know we have no we have the lovely heather locklear is joining the show and. she's great and she comes in she doesn't like us not us shows like the characters very much and she cracks the whip right away tried to divide and conquer i should change that dynamic delusional yeah the i think i was i was wrong she had a strong female presence in the show which with us is is a good thing it's

a really good thing where you both moved in the scene with. her only tell me we were sitting next to her with our codpieces on the call. and i call mine as a cod. i was that set up that you would be that we were on a talk show we were on we were our characters our own. piers morgan show defending you know doing like you know we are political analysts doing there are a lot of legal analyst as far as the scene you lose a bet and we start going toe to toe with her and our egos get in the way of it and we challenge of fact she puts more than we make a bet in the loser of the bet ends up naked and we are the loser so we ended up on the show that she was fully clothed i was disappointed she was very disappointed she was very well i would want to go she was next to me and all i had was a band-aid and then bull and so the characters and the chemistry work right away. yeah i think so and she she fell right into step she was real comfortable in the

set were very easy to work on and we get the work done but we have a lot of fun malcolm mcdowell is also one of our praising the characters on our show so he's he's made them but we're all we're all a huge family we've been together now for three years and it's a safe environment to work i mean dollars come along since oh my god you know clockwork orange yeah he's been he's going to one hundred thousand movies he has that early but i don't think i had a clear answer ok why is it successful. i would say there i would say the relationship between peter and jared is the backbone of the show and i think people really believe these guys are lifelong friends and so and i think anyone well i think you are rooting for the underdog and i think these guys represent the underdog that's kind of their main but even being an orthodox attorneys and stretching in the box and sometimes being a little friday we're still likable characters who still come off and people can

relate to us so do you ever get into you know again just serious i mean the other murder trials yeah yeah we've got a couple and there's usually some kind of fun spin on it but this is a fun spent on some of it can be potentially serious i jane seymour plays my mother jane seymour and one of the episodes is here is charged with prostitution very serious charge but again that's franklin bash so we put our little spin on it and it becomes fun but the case is serious and the charges are serious and you say that you're fair about the client but we get it you know jane seymour malcolm and you've got some serious we have some serious talent old time famous people who were you know reblock rob lowe comes on both bridges last year was as my dad. a lot of lawrence o'donnell comes on here is that what. we would get done now what is this about allie make deal with balls oh he's thin but he's not that thin murray no what was the story you have. i think that was initially that was one of the descriptions

they gave about the show because it is kind of this fun take on a legal show and at the time ally mcbeal was you know such a big influence on the way legal shows went boston legal all that so then they just started calling it bill it was that you think that was a fair thing to say was tougher than you guys in the courtroom you think. i don't know i didn't i didn't have a. feeling that bill. but we do have balls so it's accurate ok. how one of us does how much preparation into the shooting the legal scenes not much. are one of the exhibit used the jargon and yeah we do have one of our executive producers was an attorney still as an attorney i guess and if we have a question when i was going through him one of the executive producers also said that if you learn anything if you're learning about the law watching your show we've done a terrible disservice. because it is fun and we push the arm below but at the same

time it's not you not let me have my questions we have questions where the validity of things that we do in the courtroom we've we've question and where do we stand or are we would we be able to do this or if we did this would we what would happen would be a good sense that you know and we do we do represent that on our show just people who played lawyers for a long time i'm going to give them over the years sometimes on the street people come over to them thinking them lawyers you had any of that yet no no no one's milam has you got to help me with a legal abortion i found i want to play to the tact of n n y p d blue if i wear the suit you know i would do well you know when we film in l.a. and we end you wear a suit in downtown l.a. . they look just like you maybe you got a job. or i don't know turning jumps or now the characters move from l.a. to mount a bullish or you know i did they do that as a changing thing about the show our house gets burned down and so malcolm's character is nice enough to basically let us rent one of his beach houses his

character's doing much better than us and we move we move into one of his malibu beach as is and so it's fun for the show and it's a it's a change of scenery we enjoy because we get to leave our studio every couple weeks and go film and now go and have some fun on the beach and goof off made him get off his fat ass and actually made me get off my fat ass and start working out they had to take a shirt off i think my shirt off a lot this season which i'm not used to because i'm out of oh yeah because the malibu well what is the rob lowe thing he's what he's a a he's. this he's a neighbor he's a melbourne neighbor that we we get in a feud with we had a land war with no problem he's a terrific guy but the days he was great he was a little in fun places i mean the show was such fun is it fun to do yeah absolutely any time we have a guest on if we call in a favor and we ask a friend to come to the show we're confident knowing they're going have a really fun week you know whether when beau bridges came he had a blast and anyone who comes is going to have

a pretty good time morning at all. on the bottom oh do i put a judge but a judge put it out there having her play the judge this year you know it's great i would love to do a show so i could be judged on your great you come to judge. the two of you guys what would you guys yield all right we have a good six of each of you almost every day. don't you laughing about how. you off are you friends off yeah it was all just i would call that friends friends sure frenemies. you know show us we do we were we golfing yesterday together but what are we are we went golfing we went chain we went to buy golf close together and they only had one changing room so if you were at this golf store at the right time you would have seen franklin and bash and their twigs and berries changing together changing for scene oh you are going to go this is not just for our normal this is a normal monday for. each other's opinion on what color to buy a business how does

a slow has this look is it slimming is it. up you erotic any plot twists this year i think with no with heather there's a few not so much with us with heather but heather and my mother there's yes there's a little twist there there's a little sexy twist between mark paul's mother and heather locklear really showing seem really hip it's all not if the director every week. you know is a different how do we work so i would imagine that's a little difficult usually. you know in the long running comedy you know who you know like larry david those are curb your enthusiasm isn't it hard to new directors omes in yeah we have a we have a we have an executive producer producing director who directs he directs the first in the last episode he got oversees the whole vibe of the show and a whole look at the show and make sure that when you bring in these one time week guys that he makes sure the look is consistent the acting is consistent and he kind of oversees it all so that when someone does come in there's someone behind him

protecting the show if you're unhappy with something like the line can you say like to change this i think we've we've earned that privilege now in the third season where they come to us or we come to them and say this isn't working help us out with this sometimes we lose that that battle but for the most part i think they trust us that we're not trying to do it for selfish reasons that we're trying to make the show better a lot of the times there's a line that he'll have or another character will have because we read we read the script as. not just an actor but i think we will and we have more of a vested interest and this isn't a day shoot seven issues of an ocean so i'm coming up next going back to the ninety's with paul in brooklyn that you don't want to miss this.

here's mitt romney trying to figure out the name of that thing that we americans call a dollar. i'm sorry i'm just a guy who cares an awful lot like you sir are a fool you know what kind of mind sells in your neighborhood no one wishes to feature is on the on the ball and the christian. can securely slip out of the. you know the corporate media distracts us from what you and i should care about because there are profit driven industry that sells a sensationalistic garbage he calls it breaking news i'm not me martin and we're going to break this that.

is it possible to navigate the economy with all the details and to stick to misinformation and media hype will keep you up to date by decoding the mainstream had by stating if in your right. we're back margo paul is safe to say you played one of the most recognizable teen roles in television history on the saturday morning show say by the bell zac doris we will now show you

a picture. that show became more popular after it left the how do you explain that you said occasion. it really took off i think in ninety six i was three years after we had finished and syndication just launched it's a whole new level we were canceled every year the first five years of our show were canceled after every season so it's unexplainable i think you can explain it can explain if you would call it television phenomena i guess you a fan of that child was a fan of that so i was i visited the set points that you really he ignored me you didn't know that you do i don't know what it is it is that one's ego and makes up these stories i did not make you get of the of you were not nice and you had weird yellow hair and you were rude he already had seen the show yes they like it yes. my son wears a shirt with zack morris on it bet every once in awhile you think more people know is that morris or than they do is peter bash oh yeah oh by far by far really well

and it was that huge it's just it's on right now it's all good seeds this is a generation every day or so many years it just regenerates and where's it on now t.b.s. probably right now i think it's an m.t.v. to pick that up i mean that the t.v. everywhere since the middle and breckon speaking a recognizable roles you played travis in the one nine hundred ninety five hit clueless did with alicia silverstone and. holroyd what was that like it was hard for you it was fun you know i was a huge fan of fast times at ridgemont high which was the same director and it was one of those great moments where you get these all these young you know paul rudd and no one knew paul rudd no new elisia and it was one of those great times where all these young actors are hungry and enjoying it and it's a great comment a lot of things lines come out of the movie some lines yeah some little lines came out of the amy heckerling the writer director really tapped into kind of what was

coming with fashion in the vernacular and all that stuff you stay in touch with the cast i do yeah i swear to we talked pretty often they were things that were clueless to i don't know i don't i don't think would be a good idea only when clueless who would you have played on. system. you know. how to try to go out for your role just to see if i could do it but i got that i know because you play that's i want out of that role of over through these years you're both how old you same age right and yet you're both thirty nine so you've been working i think you didn't answer with well if we're the same age either way i made my to see as a guy and it was a weird part and i had to be celibate right for getting a why would he have to answer for you the same way because i feel like i'm running a classy lady and i love you so it's really both been so nice to talk to there is the interview you've both been successful working actors movie is that success

movies success t.v. shows and goes on are you now with this role do you think fearful of being typecast in other words someone is looking now at casting a movie and i say no he bit too much too much frankly on bash so i think that i'm really not i think it's a compliment and i'm proud of the work that we've done in the last three years i think it's a character that we've created. and it's a successful show so there are years of doing a show what's not to be proud of add i don't know i don't want to speak for you know i don't. i don't worry about i really don't i think the great thing is that all the i've never done a role like this and so as long as i can keep changing it up in the off season or during are outrageous i'm happy to come but you come to a revolution on television right now google the changes huge five hundred channels t m z yeah no privacy what do you thought the camera phones thank god this wasn't around when we were. young in the ninety's because just because we were we were

normal teenagers when we weren't working. and had someone posted a picture of what we're doing that sixteen when we weren't working that might have been taken out of context there's a set aspect to it the technological advances right yeah we've lost privacy absolutely i think you've lost privacy and also just i mean just as far as acting goes. the great thing about certain movie roles and things to sustain is that you didn't know about their personal lives you really got to escape into the role and now it's like i know this person i know who they're dating i know who they just broke up with i know this and that and so it's harder to get lost in that world of movies and i love i love going to the movies and not knowing anything i don't want to know that kevin spacey is the killer and like that don't mean to ruin seven for you guys kevin's base is the killer but i think that now you know too much there's no mystery to important you know we had

a mystery but we didn't know now who they were they were and also they held the movie stars and didn't know about it which was sad because now the only way i communicate with breckin is through texting he won't allow me to speak to him outside of this sort of an by what do you make of texting it's a lot easier to communicate not in real oh it's telling tell you it's not yes it's it's a copout yes safe yeah it's a total shorthand and you know it's to do with a no yeah you get or i never got it you can say that you can desire to get it and get it you know it's pretty easy people text. drive which is a menace yeah and we both we both we both ride motorcycles and you see more when you're next to a car now the amount of stuff people are doing you'll see someone having a sandwich reading the paper and texting all the same during breaks on said to people who are guilty of the only things at all it's on the minute the take is over we both bring out our phones were reading something we have what we had we have a library of photos of the minute they cut we're both on our phones and i'm guilty

of it and i don't i want to say like i'm i wish i wasn't the one that way i'd like to interact a little bit more when he does i don't like you know the address you know they want you know i know he was i guess i'll just come and take their own text is that right don't text i like i like verbal communication verbal life fifty six years doing this if i'm verbal i don't like texting i see people to actually each other across the saying oh yeah that's insane to me and if you call somebody they always answer worried because they're not used to hello why aren't you text once you texting me you know reg and i recently sat down with the cast of minute work yes which you created that based on your life yeah yeah i created that show based on the i'm just fortune's with ladies. i think i want to show you something that we discussed ok but show watch i gather just from talking to you that this is a fun set this is a really good week a summer camp pretty much you know we love you to come down here if you have a low over so i know i drive right over friends yeah right is. right

a show you know oh i'd love to go i've been on a lot of show a lot of movies where we get our story right me and we want to see what it's like when you're not wearing the suspend oh god without the suspenders. that's a fun group they're great they're great. well you know a book a minute work it larry we still have to audition but. you get started on it this year i did like. it was fun but it's a lot i mean i'm taking direction from a guy that you know you're like you know start. it was a little odd do you enjoy behind the camera as much as on i do with this show yeah i really do it's been a lot of fun while and then working. it's just another muscle i guess it's just a lot of fun to do directors no i don't direct producers are exactly as i write most of the episodes and we just have a lot of fun and you sat with a guy also gary and i've known danny since i was fifteen would you like to produce

his show yeah with all of you know i mean would you be interested in doing yeah most awful and he's the director of the two of us it's funny i'm definitely the writer and he's definitely director so we would like that angle too i would love to i'd like to direct one of our shows eventually but if it works and our schedule it's sort of tough when we're in every single scene. every single episode there's really no break for us the prop i'm amazed that guys like woody allen directing him so far we have a little game here we play toward the end is if you only knew we saw at some question the first kiss you know the girl you first kissed i do what was your name drew drew how will you eleven where was that at. her basement here in l.a. here in l.a. in terms of whatever happened to drew she doing ok she's a she's a successful producer really don't aren't first kiss were moms there. good line bastard. first kiss was doing it was in

a basement. she's not an actor or producer but what was the name. of my first because i think it was on screen actually i don't remember her name she was a she worked at she was on say by the bell as an actress but she works in the gift shop there are always probably twelve. because she now eight that's ridiculous maybe a first audition first audition. for peter pan peanut butter. the commercial in the commercial didn't get it didn't get it no movie your first month i believe it was a smurf claim moldings said they're going to let you book at about this your first one at the gate yeah breckon yeah they're professional because mrs you do you guys goof off a lot on set a lot of readers age no you know not a lot of rejects we don't we don't really don't mess around with the work we get the work done and we goof off afterwards and you know. the most fun working with.

probably this guy. you going to you not saying the same most fun. i have to say bragg and it has been a great run and it's nice to go to work and you can really work off of someone else and it feels like you know you're working with a companion and equal it's really nice director you'd like to work with director that is so many i mean. some and we're just saying chris nolan and because no one's unbelievable. so many jim brooks cameron crowe biggest wise as on the set of franklin and bash wise ass you look at. the biggest wise ass on either either me or malcolm mcdowell i would say read and read i'm really done pretty good are you a wise as object producer yeah yeah without it i enjoy being the boss on that so it's fun to make them do silly things you find comedy or drama more difficult

comedy. as someone said tommy is a serious business. especially you don't you know we're going to from the audience that and working on mental work which is in front of a live audience that was that i told you i really had a hard time going that was set by the bell was in front of a live audience but i hadn't done it in so long it's a there's a certain muscles a certain timing i didn't have that anymore and going to work on his show it was a there was a challenge i really question itself and the choices i was making there's you get that feedback yeah but it's not like stage stage is completely different just doing sitcoms is a very short it's a specific. way of doing your dialogue and difficultly the room did a civic rhythm to go and you guys have been a treat success much more success today thank you i think and i will see on the set will see the stories as they were thanks to i guess mark paul docile and breckon maher you can see them as franklin bash every wednesday night at nine on t.n.t.

just find me on twitter at kings things and i'll see you next time. nobody chooses to be homeless nobody chooses to me and my sorrow. is that was for the show to. get in the six pm get out six feet six. they were. doing things for a day or. two and me the class people in the. days that were against the war. it's tough to think about. it. and to know that

many may not have only been the last. won't should never be but they're also due to foreclosures that never should have. let me let me i want to know what all the let me ask you a question from. here on this network is what we have in the bank we have our knives out if. the group gives the scientist a bad steak never get here in a situation where b. and i don't agree to talk about surveillance me. more news today violence is once again flared up the front and these are the images

the world has been seeing from the streets of canada. giant corporations are today . to live on one hundred thirty three bucks a month for food i should try it because you know how fabulous. i miss the town i know that i'm sitting seems really messed up. and we're all very small especially. if that happens the worst you're going to find out superman to a radio guy and call it a zero minestrone click off if you want to watch close for a politician because you've never seen anything like this i'm told. him.
