This week’s Nice Boy is not really a new face in TV Land, but with his role as Nate “Baze” Bazile on the CW’s Life Unexpected, he’s certainly becoming the most memorable.

Kristoffer was born in Reno, Nevada, and became interested in acting while attending Robert Louis Stevenson boarding school in Pebble Beach CA. He graduated from NYU’s “Tisch School Of Arts” earning a bachelor of arts in 99.

Most recently from Mad Men, Kristoffer has also appeared in North Shore, Miss Guided, Dollhouse, It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia, Bones, Better Off Ted, CSI:Miami, Without A Trace, Close To Home, Roswell and Tru Calling.

Polaha’s character on Life Unexpected is a very carefree, playful, single guy who is suddenly faced with a teenage daughter, beautifully played by Britt Robertson. As we watch “Baze” dealing with fatherhood, we see Polaha skillfully pulling us into his emotional storm; at one time making us laugh and cry. Lux connects with him faster than her birth mother largely, I think, because he’s such a child himself.

Polaha is married to actress Julianne Morris and they have two small boys, Kristoffer Caleb Polaha, Jr. and Micah.

Liz is a wife and mother of three from the Nashville area who likes being able to discuss her favorite TV shows with adults sometimes. She is addicted to the Sookie Stackhouse novels and was a huge fan of the HBO series based on the books, True Blood. Her other favorite shows include Chuck, Grimm, Pretty Little Liars, Blindspot, Heroes Reborn, The Goldbergs, Sleepy Hollow, Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. and Agent Carter, just to name a few.
