Dax Shepard also wants this.
Indeed, when it comes to wife Kristen Bell’s new hit rom-com series, Nobody Wants This, Shepard is rooting for her character Joanne to get together with Adam Brody’s Noah.
“Even I can acknowledge watching it, like, ‘Whoa, that’s hot,’” Bell said of her chemistry with The O.C. star during a recent eTalk interview. “My husband said the same thing. Like, watching the first episode he was like, ‘Oh my god, I want you to kiss him so badly.’”
Bell, who shares daughters Lincoln and Delta with Shepard, plays sex-positive podcast host Joanne, who meets and falls for newly single rabbi Noah (Brody), and the two must navigate family and cultural drama to make their relationship work. And though Bell’s chemistry with Brody appears natural on the screen, she said it’s anything but.
“I’m not trying to be reductive, but I think there’s a math to it,” Bell admitted. “You have two actors that know how to stare dopily into each other’s eyes, and you have to have the confidence to expand that and really sit the anticipatory value before the kiss —which I think is really important.”
However, despite all the factors in their favor, The Good Place star noted, “Whether or not people want to see you end up with someone is a crap shoot, and we just kind of got lightning in a bottle.”
The series, which was created by Erin Foster, has been a Netflix hit. And with the finale episode ending on a bit of a cliffhanger, fans are already clamoring for a season two.
“The conversations have definitely started to happen about a potential season two,” Foster previously shared with IndieWire. “The story in season one unfolds really slowly. So I think if there is a season two I would want to just kind of pick up where we leave off and continue to take it slow, because I don’t want us to get too far ahead of ourselves.”
Foster added of the rom-com’s future, “I want my show to be on the air as long as possible!”
As for Bell and Shepard, look back at the couple's long-lasting romance.
"Who is this sparkly creature?'" Dax recalled thinking when he met Kristen at a friend's birthday dinner in 2007. After running into each other again two weeks later at a hockey game they decided to accept fate and start dating.
The old saying rings true for this couple, who both had doubts to go along with the butterflies early on. Dax said his playboy past didn't go unnoticed by "good girl" Kristen, who told Good Housekeeping, "We're the Paula Abdul video 'Opposites Attract' personified."
The two got engaged in late 2009 while co-starring in When In Rome together. They weren't immune to the romance of the Italian city and just like in their movie, the couple fell under a real life love spell.
In an interview about her relationship with Dax in 2010, Kristen shared,"A snuggle party can fix anything—it's true."
The couple got married in a simple ceremony at a Beverly Hills courthouse in 2013 after announcing their plans to wed on Twitter earlier in the year. Their choice to forego an extravagant wedding made their love story even more romantic to fans.
Bell gave birth to their first child, a girl they named Lincoln, in March 2013. Fiercely protective of her daughter's privacy, Kristen quipped, "I would really like to see the aftermath of the first person who tries to take a picture of Lincoln."
In December 2014 the couple had their second daughter, Delta.
In an interview with Good Housekeeping in May 2015 Kristen shared that she and her hubby attend couples counseling when they need to work through an issue saying, "Therapy is not something to be embarrassed about."
Kristen Bell finally joined Instagram in 2016 and inaugurated her account with a closeup of her and her husband sharing a kiss.
The two looked just as in love as ever at the premiere of Dax's new movie Chips in March 2017.

They two celebrated the 2017 Fourth of July holiday in style.
The pair continues to prove that they're just like any other couple. They openly share that they go to marriage counseling and sometimes fight. However what remains constant is their respect for each other. Kristen shared her marriage advice on Instagram writing, "Loving someone despite their faults, failings, or character defects, is the most powerful loving thing you can do. Rejoice in what makes the other person happy and allow them their individual interests."
A couple that isn't afraid to be silly together is a couple that stays together. The pair often shares hilarious shots on social media including when they dressed up for a Peaky Blinders themed birthday party. Of course, they killed it.
