Ford plays the snarky, scene-stealing personal assistant to Van Der Beek’s heightened version of himself on the comedy starring Krysten Ritter and Dreama Walker.
In his limited screen time during the show’s seven-episode freshman run, he frequently clashed with Ritter’s Chloe and denied the titular “B” in the title money for rent after she refused to read his screenplay.
