Adam Brody and Kristen Bell did not anticipate that their Netflix comedy series, Nobody Wants This, would become a cultural phenomenon as the show follows an unlikely romance between a recently single rabbi and a non-Jewish sex podcast host. In a recent interview for Variety, the actors stated their excitement on this new installment; “We are in a tense moment of massive upheaval, and there doesn’t seem to be many romantic comedies, period,” Brody specifically tells. “It feels like we have the field to ourselves for a moment.” Kristen Bell says. Aditionally, “There was a ton of really great, intense, hardcore television that ‘Breaking Bad’ inspired — rough-and-tumble watches — and something lovely in the rom-com space hadn’t been felt by the masses in a while.” This show's success can be due to its fresh take on the romantic comedy genre and great performances.
