by

In a fascinating turn of events, Season 1 of “Nobody Wants This” emerged as one of Netflix’s most viewed series, climbing to the top position on their weekly top 10 list. Excitingly, this captivating show was renewed for another season last autumn. Now, tantalizing snapshots from the set are surfacing, hinting at filming activities happening in and around Los Angeles.

The show “Nobody Wants This” (2024) revolved around an unconventional romance between Joanne (played by Kristen Bell), a skeptic who runs a relationship advice podcast, and Noah (Adam Brody), a compassionate Rabbi. The series received widespread acclaim, earning a 94% rating from critics and 85% audience approval on Rotten Tomatoes. It garnered numerous award nominations, with Adam Brody taking home the Best Actor prize at the Critics Choice Awards.

The show was developed by Erin Foster and her sister, Sara, serves as an executive producer. Foster shared with Tudum why this project is a dream come true for her: [In simpler terms] The show was made by Erin Foster and her sister Sara is one of the producers. Erin explained to Tudum why it’s a long-held dream of hers to work on this series.

As a movie enthusiast, crafting “Nobody Wants This” has undeniably left an indelible mark on my professional journey. The extraordinary cast, crew, producers, and executives have collectively transformed this project into the captivating series it stands as today. To witness the reactions of viewers as they engage with our creation, now that it’s been released to the world, surpasses any aspirations I ever held for this story. I am beyond fortunate to continue this journey, and to do so alongside Jenni Konner and Bruce Eric Kaplan, whose work on ‘Girls’ I have long admired. Here’s to advocating for healthy relationships – truly the most romantic endeavor!

For Season 2 of “Nobody Wants This”, Leighton Meester, known for her role in “Gossip Girl”, will be joining the crew. Notably, this series was narrated by Bell, who also worked with Arian Moayed, Alex Karpovsky, and Miles Fowler. Additionally, performers from Bell’s shows “Veronica Mars” and “The Good Place” were part of the cast, including Jackie Tohn and D’Arcy Carden.

Netflix debuted a BTS image and video which revealed the name of the first episode, Dinner Party:

Excitingly, it seems that the behind-the-scenes magic of Season 2 is coming to an end by late April! Rest assured, devoted fans of Nobody Wants This, the wait won’t be long as we’ll be graced with its return in 2025. While a precise date remains undisclosed for now, I can hardly contain my enthusiasm!

Why ‘Nobody Wants This’ is So Popular

The debut of Nobody Wants This in September 2024 took many by surprise, quickly garnering widespread acclaim. The rapport between characters Bell and Brody was a key factor in the positive reception, despite their having diverse ideologies. This very difference, however, is what contributes to their romantic connection on-screen. Notably, these two actors have previously shared the limelight, appearing together in Some Girl(s) (2013) and the House of Lies series with Don Cheadle from 2012 to 2015.

MovieWeb’s Aurora James explains why the show “Nobody Wants This” is currently trending: It offers an authentic portrayal of contemporary dating, focusing on individuals in their 30s and 40s, some of whom are divorced. Furthermore, the storyline includes family interference due to Joanne’s non-Jewish background, while Noah’s parents have been divorced for a long time. Lastly, the show balances religion (Noah is a Rabbi) without being entirely religious, making it seem genuine.
