LIFE UNEXPECTED

Watch Polaha hit the spotlight playing an aloof dad on Life Unexpected, CW Network’s jewel of Fall 2010

Kristoffer Polaha: “In real life, I have a beautiful wife and two chil­dren, Caleb (five) and Micah (three). So it was pret­ty interesting to be able to be a daddy on TV and to be able to sort of explore that tenderness that I now naturally feel for my kids.

“And just being a family man, which is cool to be able to put that to use – especially in Hollywood where you feel, if you have a wife and kids, you have to hide that,” said Polaha in an interview recently.

“Baze is really a joyful character to play. Here is a guy who is innately lik­able, but he just has the Peter Pan syn­drome, he doesn’t want to grow up.

“And for an actor, I don’t have to comb my hair in the morning. I don’t have to wear stiff, uncomfortable clothing. I get to like, just go and play, which is a joy!” joked Polaha.
