Nobody Wants This became a bona fide hit for Netflix in a matter of days, and renewing it for Season 2 was a no-brainer. Kristen Bell and Adam Brody will get a chance to continue their romance after the streaming giant officially announced they’re bringing this rom-com series back for its second season.
Bell and Brody lead Nobody Wants This as an agnostic podcast host and an unconventional rabbi, whose unexpected relationship sees them exploring uncharted territory. Their differing lifestyles and outlooks pose an obstacle to their future together, along with their meddling families.
Erin Foster created this series for Netflix, drawing inspiration from her own life, and she thanked everyone who made it possible.
“Creating Nobody Wants This will forever be a career highlight for me. The incredible cast, crew, producers, and executives all made this into the show it is today, and to experience viewers’ reactions to this series now that it’s out in the world has been more than anything I could have dreamed,” she said in a statement.
Foster served as showrunner of the show’s first season alongside Craig DiGregorio, but they’ll no longer hold this role in Season 2. Girls alums Jenni Konner and Bruce Eric Kaplan will lead the writers’ room next season, and they’ll be credited as showrunners and executive producers.
