Damon Wayans Jr. Shared What It Was Liked Filming THAT Scene On "Shrinking" And Working With His Dad Again On "Poppa's House"

“It was a moment where [me and co-star Jessica Williams] looked into each other’s eyes like, ‘This is happening,’” the <i>New Girl</i> star recalled.

Speaking to HuffPost on Monday, Wayans opened up about his new guest role in the critically acclaimed comedy-drama, which follows a grieving therapist ( Jason Segel) who begins breaking the rules with his patients, consequently entangling himself in their convoluted lives.

The Let’s Be Cops star also gushed about working on another show — Poppa’s House, which first aired in October — with his dad and fellow comedian, In Living Color alum Damon Wayans Sr.
