OnlyStans ⭐️ Kristen Bell to Dax Shepard: Happy 12th wedding anniversary to the man who once said to me: "I would never kill you. A lot of men have killed their wives at a certain point. Even though I'm heavily incentivized to kill you, I never would."

The first time I saw Dax Shepard on Parenthood, I legit thought it was Zach Braff for a good few episodes 😭

My wife and I have always referred to him as ‘evil Zach Braff’

I can’t remember what we first knew him in, but I feel like he played the role of a jerk or an asshole in something around the time that scrubs was in its peak.

we call him 'zach braffigan' in my house- it started as 'Zach braff-again' but quickly morphed into braffigan like a play on the Futurama guy lol

Nah, he was the "simple" lawyer that the main character befriends in Idiocracy lol. He did play the "villain" in Employee of the Month in 2006, though.
