‘Nobody Wants This’ Fans Point Out ‘Concerning’ Detail In Netflix Season Two Announcement

The creator of ‘Nobody Wants This’, Erin Foster, is being replaced as show-runner by ‘Girls’ co-creator, Jenni Konner and Bruce Eric Kaplan.

Hot Rabbi fans, listen up. If you, like the rest of team ELLE UK, are still mourning the end of Netflix’s newest — and arguably best-ever — rom-com, Nobody Wants This, then we have news that’s in equal parts good and bad.

The good news is that the hit series was renewed for a second season on October 10, with Girls co-creator Jenni Konner and Bruce Eric Kaplan joining the team as showrunners and executive producers. But it’s within this very announcement that fans have expressed the ‘bad’ news, which is to say concern for the yet-to-be-made second season.

The move to replace Foster as the showrunner on Nobody Wants This led to fans of the show expressing their dismay. ‘Nobody Wants This season 2!!!! but the showrunner change is very concerning,’ one person wrote on X. ‘I’ve been traumatised by it in the past.’

Another echoed their concerns, adding: ‘I didn’t think the portrayal of Jewish women was fair, but this is an extreme move in the business, especially for a show that scored huge in its opening week.’

Others, however, added how the move to replace Foster as showrunner with two people who are of Jewish origin may well be a reflection of the criticisms levied against the show that its depiction of Jewish women was lazy, stereotyped and gendered. ‘Hmmmm Nobody Wants This adds a Jewish woman as a showrunner for Season 2. I wonder why????,’ one user noted on X.

For the uninitiated, Nobody Wants This became Netflix’s third most-watched series or film in the UK in the days following its release, and for good reason too. To say Brody’s soft and sensitive character, Rabbi Noah, was lacking in ‘rizz’ – Oxford University Press’ word of 2023 that’s a shortened version of ‘charisma’ – would be a colossal understatement. His chemistry, and kismet love story, with fiery podcaster Joanne (Kristen Bell) was a hark back to the rom-coms of the 2000s with all of its will-they-won’t-they false starts but blatant adoration.
