No one wants to know if Nobody Wants This, Netflix's latest romantic comedy series, will return for a second season. An agnostic podcaster named Joanne (Kristen Bell) falls for an eccentric rabbi named Noah (Adam Brody) in this Erin Foster-created and, to a lesser extent, based on her own experience, series that chronicles their relationship as it causes quite a stir. By humorously and emotionally delving into some of the taboo subjects typically avoided in romantic comedies, such as religious divides, the show manages to flip the script on the genre.

Promise of a second season

There was obvious promise for a second season of Nobody Wants This because of its entertaining and exploratory premise, and fans are already wondering what happens to Joanne and Noah in the next season. The first season ended on a very inconclusive note, and the show has since become a critical smash. If Netflix decides to renew, this could be the beginning of a multi-season arc or even just one more season of the show's ongoing plot. Right now, though, Nobody Wants This season 2 is still in the works.

The most recent report has series creator Erin Foster talking about a potential second season of Nobody Wants This, as Netflix is rumoured to be considering a sophomore outing. Since she drew heavily on her own life for inspiration, the show's development, should it go with additional episodes, will be all the more intimate. Foster hinted at a faster pace in the event of a renewal, noting that production on further episodes of Nobody Wants This is already underway if Netflix decides to continue the show. But until the streaming service makes a decision, the rom-com is nowhere.

Erin Foster's statement on renewal discussions

In a statement, Foster said that a lot of people are responding positively. Therefore, she believes that discussions regarding a possible second season have already begun. Season 1's plot moves at a snail's pace. The filmmaker hopes they don't get ahead of themselves, so if there is a Season 2, Foster would prefer to pick up where they left off and keep things moving slowly. She really hopes her show can air for a very long time.

There has been no progress on a second season of as of yet, despite the fact that the first season is already receiving favourable reviews. Even a certain smash like Nobody Wants This is no assurance of a show's renewal on Netflix, which is known for its methodical approach. Season 2 doesn't seem that far-fetched anymore, what with creator Foster's enthusiasm and the rom-com's positive reception.

Viewership and potential for a quick renewal

Viewership figures will determine the show's fate, but they won't be known until the series has run for some time on the platform. While it's wonderful when a series becomes popular right away, many streaming shows actually gain steam as they progress and end up amassing massive viewership weeks or months after their initial release. However, if any show were to defy expectations and secure a quick renewal, it would undoubtedly be Nobody Wants This.

On September 26, 2024, Nobody Wants This debuted with the release of all ten episodes.

Season 1 debut and lead performances

One of the best parts of Nobody Wants This was the ensemble, especially the dynamic between Kristen Bell and Adam Brody, who are the quintessential romantic comedy A-listers. That being said, Bell must reprise her role as the stubborn atheist Joanne, and Brody must reprise his role as the unconventional Rabbi Noah. Nobody Wants This isn't just about the lead actors; the supporting cast is also crucial. Justine Lupe plays Joanne's sister Morgan, while Jackie Tohn plays Esther, Noah's protective sister.

The pair's relationship was already in a precarious position at the end of season 1, and the second season of "Nobody Wants This" will have a mountain of unanswered concerns. Firstly, Joanne's decision to not convert to Judaism will remain a sore spot until many people's hearts change. However, she may ultimately change her mind due to compelling reasons. On the other hand, circumstances beyond their control are pulling the couple in different directions, and the secrets kept by both families will inevitably surface. The real meat of season 2 of "Nobody Wants This" will be how the couple weathers those storms.
