Nobody Wants This Season 2 Lands on Netflix to Mixed Reviews

New co-showrunners steer a guest-star-heavy season that shifts focus to supporting-family arcs.

Overview

  • Season 2 is now streaming on Netflix following its Oct. 23 premiere.
  • The new episodes follow Joanne and Noah as they face renewed questions about conversion and career complications for a rabbi aiming higher.
  • Early critiques praise Kristen Bell and Adam Brody’s chemistry yet fault the season for familiar plotting and less momentum in the central romance.
  • Reviewers note expanded storylines for Morgan, Sasha and Esther that probe sibling bonds and marital strain beyond the core couple.
  • Creator Erin Foster remains an executive producer as Jenni Konner and Bruce Eric Kaplan take over showrunning, with guest turns from Leighton Meester, Seth Rogen, Arian Moayed and Kate Berlant.
