I knew of Kristen Bell and Dax Sheppard but I didn't really watch anything with them. After seeing the good place, I've been watching all of their stuff and loving it. They are both very unique individuals.

[@medea2693]

"Right. Act like your wife? I think I can do it." Haha! Between her blatant sarcasm & the way he screams "ACTION!" (causing the funniest startled expression on her face), this sketch always makes me laugh. I like these two so much; I like their work as individuals & their comedic timing, together never fails. I like that when I see one of them interviewed, they always speak of the other with great affection & respect. I appreciate that they openly admit to marriage counseling & being flawed human being. Most of all, it's pretty obvious that they are really great friends, that they make eachother laugh & have a blast together...

Dax and Michael are so funny in this! 😹 They genuinely acted like they didn’t know her at all.

[@Buc_Stops_Here]

Really glad that Bell has taken the time to do a short series (13 episodes only) on TV. "The Good Place" is one of the best comedies on television and 13 episodes is better than none at all (already renewed for 13 more next year). Dax Shepard - why can't he do the same thing? Too busy?

[@acarlovonsexron1994]

In case you missed it, he wrote, directed, produced, and is starring in CHiPs, but prior to that he was on Parenthood for like seven years. They have said that they try not to work heavily at the same time so at least one parent can be with their kids, so both of them being on TV for an extended period would be problematic.

[@Buc_Stops_Here]

Makes sense Carlo, thanks for explaining.
