Prepare to swoon once again over Adam Brody and Kristen Bell’s undeniable on-screen chemistry because Nobody Wants This is officially coming back for Season 2! If, like us, you binged the first season on Netflix and immediately started searching for renewal news, your prayers have been answered: the star-crossed romance between Rabbi Noah Roklov (Brody) and agnostic sex podcaster Joanne (Bell) is set to continue.
The Erin Foster-created series made a huge splash with rom-com fans, thanks to its witty dialogue, compelling characters, and undeniable chemistry between its two leads. Over the course of 10 episodes, Nobody Wants This captured hearts by exploring the cultural and religious differences that threatened to derail Noah and Joanne’s connection. But as with any good rom-com, just when things were looking up, a twist left us all craving more. And now, we’re getting exactly that.

The Story So Far: Recap of Season 1
For those who missed the first season (or need a refresher), Nobody Wants This follows Noah, a charming yet conflicted rabbi, and Joanne, a wildly successful and free-spirited podcaster, who meet under unlikely circumstances. Despite their differences — Joanne’s lack of religious faith being a big one — sparks fly instantly. As their relationship deepens, the pair must navigate Noah’s close-knit Jewish community, Joanne’s commitment issues, and their own uncertainties about whether love can truly conquer all.
The first season ended with an unforgettable romantic gesture: Noah chasing Joanne after a bat mitzvah to share a heartfelt kiss, signaling that he’s not ready to let her go — despite all the complications. However, it left viewers with a pretty big question: Where do they go from here?

What to Expect In Season 2 of Nobody Wants This
With Season 1 wrapping up in true cliffhanger fashion, Season 2 promises to dive deeper into the messy dynamics between Noah and Joanne. While the pair clearly have strong feelings for each other, the obstacles they face are no small feat. Joanne’s hesitation to convert to Judaism was a major sticking point, especially after she realised the full implications of becoming a rabbi’s wife. Season 2 will likely pick up where we left off — or shortly thereafter — exploring whether the couple can truly commit or if their love will be a fleeting affair.
Adam Brody teased fans by saying, “In the light of day, will Noah still feel the same way about putting Joanne first? It’s an open question.” And that’s exactly what Season 2 will dive into — how do love, culture, and identity intersect, and what compromises are worth making?
Is Joanne ready to embrace a faith she’s not entirely sure of? Is Noah prepared to challenge the expectations placed on him by his community? And more importantly, is their love strong enough to withstand these challenges?
Brody himself adds to the intrigue, saying, “I think Season 2 will explore the question of what constitutes real growth and what sacrifices are truly worth it in a relationship.”
When Will Nobody Wants This Season 2 Premiere?
Netflix has confirmed that Season 2 of Nobody Wants This is slated to arrive in 2025. While the wait might feel long, the promise of more emotional twists, romantic moments, and that irresistible Brody-Bell dynamic is enough to keep fans hooked.
