Netflix’s Hit Rom-Com 'Nobody Wants This' is Officially Coming Back for Season 3 – and Fans Couldn’t Be Happier!
Yes, you read that right: everyone is clearly clamoring for more. Just two weeks after the release of its second season, Netflix confirmed that 'Nobody Wants This' will return for a third season. The exciting news broke on social media, featuring a playful video where the show’s star, Kristen Bell, surprises her fellow cast members on individual FaceTime calls, letting them know they’re heading back for another season.
This romantic comedy, which draws loosely from the personal experiences of its creator Erin Foster, has captured hearts with its unique storyline. Adam Brody stars as Noah, a devoted rabbi, who finds himself falling for Joanne, played by Kristen Bell, an agnostic navigating the challenges of love outside her faith. In the first season, viewers were captivated by the couple’s initial struggles, grappling with the lingering question: "Can this really work?" Season two took the story further, following Joanne and Noah months into their committed relationship, exploring how they adjust and compromise to make love thrive despite differences.
Season two’s finale delivered a powerful emotional moment when Noah’s sister-in-law, Esther (portrayed by Jackie Tohn), had a heartfelt conversation with Joanne. Esther expressed that she feels inherently connected to her Jewish identity, regardless of her romantic relationship with Noah. This exchange appeared to influence Joanne’s own spiritual journey, hinting that she might be ready to convert as she and Noah reunited in a touching mirror of the first season’s finale.
"I love that Esther comes around and becomes the voice pointing this out to Joanne," Jackie Tohn shared in a reflective interview with The Hollywood Reporter. "Being able to express these feelings on television is so meaningful for me. It’s meta, it’s powerful, and it really resonated deeply with me."
Season two also featured an array of notable guest appearances that delighted fans, including Leighton Meester, Adam Brody’s real-life spouse, and Emmy-winning actor Seth Rogen, who joined the fun playing a rabbi.
As of now, Netflix has yet to announce a release date for season three, leaving fans eagerly anticipating when they can dive back into this heartwarming, faith-and-love-driven journey.
