Nobody Wants This Renewed for Season 2 at Netflix

News

Joanne and Noah’s love story is far from over! Netflix has renewed Nobody Wants This for a second season.

The Kristen Bell and Adam Brody-led romantic comedy series follows “the unlikely relationship between an outspoken, agnostic woman, Joanne (Bell), and an unconventional rabbi, Noah (Brody),” per its logline.

The 10-episode debut season premiered on Thursday, September 26. Nobody Wants This Season 1 Episode 10, “Mitzvah Crashers,” seemingly has Noah pass up a job promotion to be with Joanne, who ends things so he doesn’t have to pick between her and work. Now, the Netflix series will be able to detail what happens next for the couple.
