**”Nobody Wants This” Returns for Season 2 with A-Plus Ensemble, New Faces, and More Hilarious Mishaps**
**[CITY, STATE] – [DATE]** – Following its smash hit first season, the critically acclaimed romantic comedy “Nobody Wants This” is returning for season 2, reuniting its star-studded cast and introducing fresh talent to the mix. The show, starring Kristen Bell as Joanne, a relationship podcaster, and Adam Brody as Rabbi Noah, has struck a chord with audiences, thanks to its witty writing, relatable characters, and the undeniable chemistry of its leads.
What started as a niche romantic comedy has exploded, attracting a diverse fanbase, including a surprising number of dads. Bell, who also serves as an executive producer, noted the unexpected demographic shift, revealing that many viewers were introduced to the show by their fathers.
The series revolves around the unlikely romance between Joanne and Noah as they navigate their vastly different worlds, from navigating a problematic wine cork to contemplating the presence of clergy at a sex shop. But beyond the central love story, “Nobody Wants This” shines due to its supporting cast. Justine Lupe, Timothy Simons, and Jackie Tohn round out the ensemble, portraying the siblings and partners that provide comedic relief and emotional depth.
Brody emphasizes the cast’s genuine affection for each other. “We just enjoy each other so much,” he says. “I just really, really, really like everyone.” Tohn echoes this sentiment, highlighting the rarity of such a tight-knit and supportive group.
Creator Erin Foster’s semi-autobiographical comedy draws inspiration from her real-life love story and conversion to Judaism, giving the show its authentic feel. While Bell was the first to sign on, she initially doubted her ability to embody the “cool girl” persona of Joanne. However, her chemistry with Brody was undeniable, and the two have created a beloved on-screen pairing.
Season 2 promises more laughter, awkward family encounters, and heartwarming moments as Joanne and Noah continue to explore their relationship. Joining the cast are Miles Fowler, Alex Karpovsky, Arian Moayed, and Leighton Meester, adding new dynamics to the already vibrant ensemble.
“Nobody Wants This” has garnered nominations at the Golden Globes, Screen Actors Guild Awards, and Critics’ Choice Awards, with Brody taking home the award for Best Actor in a Comedy Series. With Jenni Konner and Bruce Eric Kaplan joining as showrunners and executive producers, season 2 is poised to be even funnier and more engaging than the first.
Viewers can expect more of the adult human experiences that made the show so appealing, from navigating family dynamics to discovering the meaning of healthy relationships. And as Brody aptly puts it, “You can still find love, and it can feel like first love even.”
