00:00Hello, I'm Adam Brody.
00:01And I'm Kristen Bell.
00:03And we're at our Hollywood Reporter cover shoot
00:05for the season two
00:07something or other of Nobody Wants Us.
00:10That's right.
00:21Season two of Nobody Wants Us
00:23has been more fun than season one
00:25and season one was a lot of fun.
00:27I had a lot of fun, dare I say,
00:28the most fun on season one.
00:31Of any job?
00:33Not, well, close to it,
00:35but I meant like of anyone on season one.
00:37Oh.
00:38I enjoyed myself the most.
00:39Which is not to say you didn't enjoy yourself a lot.
00:41But that is correct.
00:42But I enjoyed myself even more.
00:43Yeah.
00:47I would say,
00:48after the honeymoon phase,
00:51when life begins,
00:54I had a good feeling about this show
00:56when I read the first and second episode
00:59in one sitting,
01:01I'm a pick it up,
01:03put it down kind of reader.
01:06And I got,
01:07I blazed through this
01:08because I wanted to know what happened.
01:11That's a very good sign.
01:12That's very,
01:13I had a good,
01:14I did have a good feeling,
01:15but my definitive thing
01:18was when I saw the first episode.
01:20That's when I had a very good feeling.
01:23Because it was good.
01:25And it came together marvelously,
01:28better than I thought it was going to.
01:30You know,
01:31I saw it get together
01:31and I saw us acting together
01:33and the music
01:34and I was like,
01:35this is really working in a way
01:36that now has got me very excited.
01:38If one scene is brought up to me,
01:44you know,
01:45I think it's the first kiss the most.
01:47And then,
01:47I guess,
01:48followed secondly by
01:50the I Can Handle You.
01:53Oh, yeah.
01:54God,
01:54you remember the show so well.
01:56I like,
01:56I'm like,
01:57I don't know.
01:57Well,
01:58I watch it every day.
02:05Like that.
02:05Calm down.
02:06Calm down,
02:07really?
02:07Calm down.
02:08That's what I give myself
02:09at the end of every day,
02:09I think.
02:10You calm down in what way?
02:11Like,
02:13overthinking
02:14on and off screen,
02:17I think.
02:18Because I can see myself,
02:19when I watch myself,
02:20which I really try not to do,
02:22I can see myself
02:24overthinking things.
02:25For me,
02:26I'm always like,
02:26just be funnier.
02:27The first half of both seasons,
02:29I'm like,
02:30yeah,
02:30he's pretty romantic.
02:31That's nice.
02:32And by the second half,
02:33I'm like,
02:33just make me laugh
02:35or get out of my face.
02:36I'm so sick of this guy.
02:37Okay.
02:38I think you're very funny.
02:39I'm not my,
02:40no,
02:40I think you're very funny
02:41as well.
02:46I don't have an answer
02:46for this one
02:47because I believed
02:48everything my character did.
02:50I think the way the show
02:52was written
02:53was so hyper-realistic.
02:55In fact,
02:55I was like,
02:57um,
02:58wondering
02:59when,
03:00I don't know,
03:01more plot points
03:02would happen,
03:03but then I realized,
03:04looking back,
03:05like,
03:05oh,
03:05the point is that
03:06it's supposed to actually
03:07be like reality
03:08and you're supposed
03:08to have all these moments
03:09that are ambiguous
03:10and you don't know
03:11what to say
03:12and you're supposed
03:12to sit in those
03:13and stew in those
03:14and let the camera
03:15shoot you in those
03:17because that's what
03:18real life is.
03:19I can't believe
03:20my character.
03:22Oh,
03:23bows down to his mama
03:24so much,
03:24maybe?
03:24Certainly.
03:25I find him a little,
03:27I mean,
03:27I can believe it.
03:28It's not that I can't
03:29believe it,
03:30but I find him
03:32a little wishy-washy.
03:33You know?
03:36Loyal also?
03:38Loyal,
03:38loyal,
03:39but I mean,
03:39you know,
03:40yes,
03:40loyal.
03:41I do think he,
03:43you know,
03:43acquiesces to his parents
03:44a lot for an adult,
03:45but then again,
03:47you know,
03:48he also is starting
03:50to create some separation.
03:51We'll see you next time.
