(upbeat music) All right guys I am here on the set of The Thundermans with Kira and Jack. Hey.

Hey.

And um first of all, your phone's off right Kira?

Yes my phone is off.

Yes, my phone just went off before we started, and last time we did one of these, his went off during shooting in front of the live audience so we checked this time. That was a PSA!

(inaudible) Are we doing a PSA? No this is an interview.

Hello my name is Jack Griffo and ...

You suck. You didn't answer his phone?

No it was a Sports Center It was a... (Sports Center theme song)

So how is it working with four kids?

Well five minutes ago when they heard I was doing this interview, Diego said: "Oh are you doing the not-so-young Hollywood interview?" How dare he? So it's like that and then they ask me what it's like if I built the pyramids.

Mhm.

(laughing) Or how riding dinosaurs was

That's not fair Rosa is only 67 she looks great.

She looks amazing. Whatever your skin regime is, I need it.

Now I hear that you two are only children.

Mhm.

Mhm, we are.

So when you come to set you get to hang out with all the siblings and then go home and be like: "bye".

It's so cool...

It's easy.

Because you like, get the best of both worlds...

Yeah.

At the same time...

You get to have siblings but at the same time don't, so it's awesome.

Yeah, trust me coming from someone who has a sibling, I'd be like, I'd be so thankful to be like: "just go home, go far, far away".

(upbeat music) Let's begin! Lets check it out. Yeah so this is lair. Uh the lair is really fun to shoot in. This bed, super comfortable.

It's really comfortable. If we are rehearsing here you will always find me or Jack just laying like "wait we're rehearsing? What?"

So we've got the slide which you have to go...

Up the stairs.

Up here and down the slide. There's no other way to get out. You either go back down the stairs or down the slide. (laughing) So we spend a lot of time up there. Now you've gone down the slide, right Addison?

I've gone down lots of times...

You've been down a lot of times. Okay.

A couple of times. There was once when we were (inaudible) in a giant ball pit...

What?

So it was lots of fun.

I was so jealous. I haven't been down the slide yet. I'm the only...

Not even for fun?

Not even in real life! Crazy. I just feel like this point it will be anticlimactic. Okay. It's been too much build up. Okay. Okay. I was gonna say lets do it but lets just leave it. This is Doctor Clawso, um, he's the bunny. He's actually a puppet, sorry to break the illusion.

Really? He looks very real, even right now.

He does, and our puppeteers are amazing, they keep him moving and alive.

Oh my gosh, I love it.

Like that. Like that. What's going on Clawso? (Doctor Clawso making noises) This poster, if you watch the show, you might recognize is Dark Mayhem, and really early in the first season Max is visited over like a phone call by Dark Mayhem and it actually turns out to be Pheobe pranking him... (laughing) And she gets him in a coconut bra and a grass skirt in the school hallway

Ouu.

It's amazing. It's lots of fun. It might be my favorite costume Jack has worn on the show.

Who's the most energetic? Rosa Blasi and Chris Tallman: Kira.

Kira is Hillary Clinton.

The most energetic but also the least coordinated

She is.

Is that so?

Which is weird because she's like a Joffrey level ballerina...

Right.

But that doesn't mean she can walk a straight line without tripping

So she's very clumsy?

Yesterday she fall, she was walking towards the stairs and fell down.

So I have a quick little question here, a couple questions for you guys about super powers. Cool. If you could shape-shift, which is transform, into any person for one day who would it be?

Ouu.

Barack Obama.

Okay. Really?

Yeah.

I wouldn't want that responsibility. Are you kidding me? That's a lot of responsibility, I don't know if I could handle that.

Guys I got this, I got this. I got it. I think I could handle it. Walk around and uh, talk like Barack Obama. 'Merica. See, I've already got it.

You've already got the voice but you have to shape-shift.

Malia, Michelle, go to bed. (laughing)

There you go, there you go.

I would probably pick my cat.

Your cat?

My cat would definitely be a fun thing to portray because they're just, I don't know what they do, they probably just like sleep, watch traffic go by. I think it would be entertaining to be a cat for a day.

That's the life.

Yeah.

I'm still thinking. Um. George Washington! (laughing) First president of the United States.

Alright. That would be cool. That'd be fun. Jack said Obama, so... Jack said Obama? President. Yeah so you guys are both up there with presidents. And I'm down there with the cool cats.

(upbeat music playing) This is our kitchen. It's lots of fun. Probably the coolest part of the kitchen is uh, we have the chalkboard right here.

Okay.

And it changes every episode. We have artists who take, they actually take the chalkboard and they come up with doodles that kind of go with the episode.

I love it!

Sometimes they'll have an inside joke about the episode in it... Right. Which I really love. These are actual photos of us. When we first started the show, they us to send them photos of us as babies and they use them.

Who's this one? This little one?

This is Rosa's daughter. Miss Rosa's real daughter. Miss Rosa's real daughter, so cute. Diego. We have Addison. I'm not one this one. Addison that's so cute!

Now is there anything in the fridge?

There is. Oh it is lit up. So some of this food is real and some is not.

Yeah I noticed, the corn, not real. The pudding is real. Um, the mushrooms are not. The lettuce head is not. And sometimes you don't know if its gonna be real so you pick it up and it's like not as heavy as you expect it to be or something. Oh this is real, and sticky. You get the full effect! Um this is the living room.

Okay.

This is the hatch. The hatch is really cool...

The hatch.

It's supposed to go down. It's supposed to start the slide that goes down into the lair and supposedly this button is supposed to open it up but Omar, our special effects guy is supposed to open it and he's not here right now, he's on lunch. (laughing) This is professor Gold Collar Polly Puff. He is the penguin.

We named him. We named him the first episode. Professor Golf Collar Polly Puff.

His arm actually moves.

I like it, it's a nice little touch.

I broke it. I broke it the first episode, uh I pushed it here and it just when (popping noise) and broke off in our first take. I was really embarrassed.

Oh. Poor Gold Collar.

This is the portrait that we did two and a half...

Two years ago. Two years ago. It'll be two years in a month.

So this is the front door.

Okay.

This is the front door, which actually goes onto this little porch right here, if you'd like to come join us. Alright. This is our porch, unfortunately it doesn't look out at anything because the stage stops. It's fake! It's all fake to ruin the illusion. The illusion of television.

If you had the power of invisibility, who on set would you mess with the most?

Oh, Jack and Kira.

Um, everyone.

That's a good idea. Especially like the sound guys. You could like clap. La la la, clap clap clap. Quiet on set! Quiet on set!

Okay if you had the power of invisibility, who on set would you mess with the most?

Oh... Rosa. Yes! (laughing) No but you know what, quite honestly, I don't even think Rosa would be phased. Like, I could sneak into her dressing room and like float a shirt or something and she'd be like: "oh okay a floating shirt".

How is your day so far, by the way?

It's been great, it's been good. Yeah.

Who's the best interview so far?

Oh God, here we go. I'm gonna go with Rosa.

Thanks. Thank you. (laughing) Thank you very much.

(upbeat music) This is Craft Service, its where all of our food is. In other words its the best place ever.

Seriously you guys have some good stuff. It's like nice and warm like when its cold outside, it's warm in here. When it's warm outside it's cold in here. This is our little sneak away too. Like when we get a five minute break, if they have to reset the cameras...

We just come in here. We come to Crafty and we can talk. I'm gonna be honest, you guys kind of got jipped because this was like loaded earlier.

Yeah. It was. It was.

This is the backyard Slash driveway.

Slash driveway.

Bill and Nora do a lot of stuff. We've done two scenes out here already.

Yeah this tends to be kind of the kids domain. Right. Usually Max and Phoebe have um, have the living room and the lair area... Right. Most of the Billy Nora stuff happens out here and their storylines usually have like trampolines or pools or remote controlled airplanes

Really fun stuff.

A lot of fun stuff. They get fun toys, like really fun stuff happens in here.

You guys thank you so much for giving us this amazing set tour.

Of course! So much fun!

Thank you for having us.

Thanks for joining us.

Of course, you guys are the best.

So, how long have you been working here at Young Hollywood?

For about two years now.

That's a long time.

That is a long time.

I think he wants to take your job.

I'm serious, he's gonna give me a run for my money.

Hey guys I'm Erika Ross and this is Young Hollywood. (laughing) See this? Oh my gosh. Give me this. (laughing) (upbeat outro music)
