Los Angeles, California – aka the land where dreams go to brunch and never call you back.
Nobody Wants This is BACK! Yes, somehow, against all odds (and despite its own title), this absolutely chaotic rom-com is getting a Season 2, and no, you’re not hallucinating—unless you’ve had one too many espresso martinis, in which case…same.
So here’s what went down: the day after Netflix’s Tudum Live event (which is basically Coachella for people who scream over teaser trailers), the Nobody Wants This crew hit up Netflix’s FYSEE Emmy Event in LA. Translation: stars in sequins gathered to humblebrag about their show while pretending not to want awards they absolutely want.
On stage like the main characters they are, we had:
- Series creator Erin Foster, the mastermind behind this loveable fever dream
- Executive producer Sara Foster, probably threatening to cancel someone’s WiFi if they don’t watch
- And stars Kristen Bell (America’s sweetheart but slightly chaotic), Adam Brody (still giving “hot but emotionally unavailable”), Justine Lupe, Timothy Simons, and Jackie Tohn, all dressed to impress and probably wondering how they got roped into Season 2
Then, in a moment of pure cinematic drama, they revealed the premiere date for Season Deux:
Thursday, October 23rd on Netflix. Mark your calendars. Set a reminder. Tattoo it on your butler.
And just when you thought this couldn’t get any more confusing, let’s rewind to April, when Kristen, Adam, and Justine were spotted filming what appeared to be either:
- A Halloween episode (ghosts, wigs, emotional trauma)
- A Purim episode (Jewish Halloween, but with more pastries and generational guilt)
OR
Basically, they were in costumes, and we’re not sure if we should be scared, blessed, or both.
So whether you wanted it or not—Season 2 of Nobody Wants This is coming, and it’s dressed as a sexy vampire rabbi.
You’ve been warned.
