The cast of Nobody Wants This has come together for an exciting table read of Season 2, continuing the success of the first season. Following the positive reception of the initial episodes, creator Erin Foster announced the renewal of the show for a second season in October, which will dive deeper into the complicated relationship between Joanne (Kristen Bell) and the hot Rabbi, Noah (Adam Brody).
Foster took to her Instagram to share behind-the-scenes photos from the table read, offering fans a sneak peek of the reunion. The Instagram story featured a group photo of the cast, including Kristen Bell, Adam Brody, Justine Lupe, and others, all gathered together for the read. Alongside the picture, Foster wrote, “Season 2 table read!! We Baby Baby,” adding a fun touch to the announcement.
Before the second season was confirmed, Bell, who plays the role of Joanne, expressed her excitement about continuing the story. In an interview with Entertainment Tonight, Bell shared her thoughts on the show’s evolving narrative: “It’s exploring what a real relationship in modern-day dating times looks like,” she said. “As long as humans remain complex… there will always be room for another season.” It’s clear that the show’s exploration of complex, modern relationships has resonated with viewers.
The first season of Nobody Wants This showcased the ups and downs of the relationship between Joanne, a sex podcaster, and Noah, a newly single rabbi, as they navigated the pressures from their contrasting lifestyles, families, and external challenges. The official synopsis of the show sums it up as: “An agnostic sex podcaster and a newly single rabbi fall in love, discovering if their relationship survives their wildly different lives and meddling families.”
The show has already made an impact, blending a unique, relatable storyline with performances from actors stepping into roles unlike any they’ve done before. The chemistry between Bell and Brody, combined with the show’s refreshing take on relationships, has helped make it a hit.
Although Nobody Wants This is still in its pre-production phase, fans can expect the second season to premiere sometime in late 2025 or 2026. In the meantime, the first season is available for streaming on Netflix. It’s clear that there’s much more to look forward to as the story of Joanne and Noah continues to unfold!
