Former "Veronica Mars" co-stars Kristen Bell and Ryan Hansen reunite at a Christmas family party.

Fans of the "Veronica Mars" TV series may recall that Bell's Veronica and Hansen's Dick could not stand the each other in the show. However, in real life, the two actors are actually really good friends.

In fact, Bell and Hansen just had a mini-reunion this Christmas. Bell, along with her husband, Dax Shepard, attended a Christmas Party hosted by Hansen and his wife, Amy.

Bell shared on her Instagram account a photo of the two married couples wearing matching couple sweaters and giving each other affectionate kisses in a non-traditional way. Shepard and Hansen shared a friendly lip-lock while Bell kissed Amy on the cheek as Hansen's wife giggled.

Shepard also shared a more wholesome group photo on his Instagram account and captioned it, "Best Christmas party ever. Super Spouses, ACTIVATE!"

"Veronica Mars" aired for three seasons from 2004 until 2007. Although the show was canceled, it gained a strong cult following which inspired series creator Rob Thomas to start a Kickstarter campaign to properly conclude the show with a movie. The campaign was a success, achieving its $2 million goal in less than 11 hours and accumulated over $5.7 million in the end. The movie was released on March 14, 2014,

Since their stint "Veronica Mars," both Bell and Hansen have moved on to other projects and found success in their respective ventures.

Bell transitioned into playing roles in films such as "Forgetting Sarah Marshall," "When in Rome," and "The Boss." She gained worldwide recognition for voicing Princess Anna in "Frozen 2," and she also previously played the female lead in the Showtime series "House of Lies." She currently stars as Eleanor Shellstrop in the NBC comedy series "The Good Place."

Hansen, on the other hand, appeared in a recurring role in the CBS sitcom "2 Broke Girls." He also played a supporting character in this year's film, "Central Intelligence," which starred Kevin Hart and Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson.
