    "Franklin and Bash" use Van Halen songs in script

    Was just "watching" (not really) the TNT show "Franklin and Bash", and this suddenly came on.... (1st 40 seconds or so)

    I saw that episode last summer. Thought it was well done the way they worked that many VH references into a short time.

      Yeah, they mentioned a blurb about Roth in the script, but they didn't show it in that highlight clip....

        Of course this isn't the first time multiple Van Halen references have turned up in a TV show. Wonder how many parents watched this scene with their kids, and the kids didn't understand why the folks were cracking up.....

          to go along with what FORD says, it's kind of funny that the song titles for one of the CVH classics that this song is based on turns up in this song:



          If there's any doubt as to who Dr. Rockso truly is supposed to be, this parody along with his band mates clears that up. They parody the start of the Fresno '79 video in the beginning, they drink jack daniels much like one of Van Halen's more famous pics (also Dave's drink of choice), and Bink-Bonk is wearing Ed's overalls from US Fest.

          I hear Romeo Delight and I'm the One in this, am I missing any?
