Since the series premiered two weeks ago, Nobody Wants This has made a rapid rise in the Netflix charts. After the RomCom is over Sex podcaster Joanne (Kristen Bell) and Rabbi Noah (Adam Brody) was so well received, the streamer promptly ordered a second season. But there is a major upheaval behind the scenes.
Netflix’s Nobody Wants This is getting a season 2 – with well-known new showrunners
Not only Netflix’s viewing figures, but also the ratings indicate that Nobody Wants This will receive a second season: 7.7 out of 10 points on Moviepilot, 8.1 out of 10 on IMDb and 88 percent on Rotten Tomatoes testify to the enormous popularity of the romantic comedy , in which a cosmopolitan Jewish rabbi and a non-religious modern woman try to find one Relationship against all odds to enter.
As Variety reported yesterday, Nobody Wants This doesn’t have to worry about being renewed or canceled for as long as some other Netflix series: The RomCom was almost worldwide in its first eleven days 90 million hours streamed and is currently number 1 among the most watched series in Germany. So season 2 was wrapped up, albeit with a change.
After Jack Burditt served as showrunner in season 1, Jennifer Konner and Bruce Eric Kaplan take over in season 2 new creative direction. In the past, the two have played a significant role in Lena Dunhams Successful series Girls co-determined. Nobody Wants This series creator Erin Foster is staying on with the Netflix series and said in a THR statement:
I’m so lucky to be able to continue this story and to do so alongside Jenni Konner and Bruce Eric Kaplan, who I’ve been a huge fan of since Girls. [Endlich können wir dem Umstand] Justice do that healthy relationships are the most romantic!
What’s next for Season 2 of Nobody Wants This after the Netflix renewal?
Warning, spoilers follow: After Noah was offered the position of chief rabbi in his temple, it was a dream come true for him. But with a non-Jewish woman at his side, this career move seemed impossible. Joanne considered converting to Judaism, but realized that she would have done so only for him and not out of conviction. She initiated the separation for Noah’s benefit, but he caught up with her in the end and didn’t want to give up on his new found love.
Of course, the romantic gesture does not eliminate the obstacles faced by the two main characters. In season 2 they have to try to find a solution to their problem different living environments to find. It is questionable whether Noah can convince his mother Bina (Tovah Feldshuh) about Joanne – so is there a break with the family? And will ex-wife Rebecca (Emily Arlook) really let Noah go after receiving support from sister-in-law Esther (Jackie Tohn)?
Meanwhile, Noah’s brother Sasha (Timothy Simons) found an unexpected friend in Joanne’s sister Morgan (Justine Lupe), but what trouble will this relationship lead to? In addition, the fact that Joannes Podcast has become less interesting has been since she has a boyfriend and no longer talks openly about everything. This could put obstacles in the way of the two sisters’ great podcast careers. So season 2 still has a lot to clarify.
