Some shows that manage to win gold quietly, letting their success create the buzz, are truly fascinating. You may not have witnessed the journey, but you’re undoubtedly hooked on the outcome. One such show is now on Netflix, and there’s no way you haven’t heard about it. Released on September 26, Nobody Wants This took the world by storm with its unique storytelling and a concept that felt like a comfort watch while still offering something fresh. Starring the talented Adam Brody and Kristen Bell, the Netflix show quickly became the talk of the town, topping the streaming charts within a week. Soon enough, fans were eagerly awaiting news of a second season. Now, Netflix has officially confirmed it.
Yes, you read that right. Nobody Wants This has been renewed for a second season by Netflix, and we are now living in anticipation. The streaming giant announced the news on their Instagram with a reel showing beautiful moments between Joanne and Noah, confirming Nobody Wants This Season 2. The caption read, "Put down your ice cream. NOBODY WANTS THIS is returning for season 2!!" Fans are going wild over the announcement, but there’s also a change coming.
Unlike Season 1, Nobody Wants This Season 2 will not have Erin Foster as the showrunner. While Foster remains the creative voice behind the second season, Jenni Konner and Bruce Eric Kaplan of Girls fame will take over as showrunners and creative producers. There is no confirmation yet on whether there will be any cast changes. Netflix has also not revealed any synopsis for the new season.
"It's a dream to be working on Nobody Wants This," Konner said in an interview with Variety. "Erin is a rare creator with a crystal clear voice and a genuinely collaborative spirit. I am a true fan of Erin's show and feel so lucky to be back in a room with two of my favorites, Bruce Kaplan and [writer] Sarah Heyward from Girls." Kaplan added, "I am excited beyond belief to be a part of Season 2 of Nobody Wants This, created by the hilarious Erin Foster. It’s such a unique and beautiful show, and I’m already having the best time working on it."
The official synopsis for Nobody Wants This reads: The show follows the relationship between Joanne (Kristen Bell), a sex podcaster who's unlucky in love, and Noah (Adam Brody), a rabbi recently out of a long-term relationship. The couple's interfaith relationship faces resistance, and Joanne struggles to navigate her identity as an outsider in Noah's religious world. Clearly, by now, everyone does want this, and it’s coming true. At this point, there is no release date or production details for the second season, but time will tell when it finally lands on Netflix.
