Netflix has officially announced a bonus High Holiday: Oct. 22, which is when season three of “Nobody Wants This” comes out.
A quick catch up: “Nobody Wants This” is the show about Joanne, an agnostic podcaster (Kristen Bell) who falls for Noah, a hot rabbi (Adam Brody) that shot to success in its first season as the couple navigated the will they/won’t they path, then received a slightly more lukewarm reaction for a second season that ended with — spoiler alert — Joanne likely converting to Judaism and a very quick third season renewal announcement.
Along with the release date, Netflix released a handful of photos from the new season. Most exciting to us? A shot of Sarah Silverman as Rabbi Eden, Joanne’s Intro to Judaism teacher, and one of Tovah Feldshuh as Bina, Noah’s mom, saying something very serious to Noah’s sister-in-law, Esther, played by Jackie Tohn. So far, there’s no sign of which, if any, Jewish holidays we’ll see portrayed onscreen (like last season’s Purim party), and we’re still waiting to see Sadie Sandler as the psychic who gives a reading to Joanne’s sister Morgan.
If you want to refresh your memory on all things “Nobody Wants This,” we can help. You can read our roundtable from “Nobody Wants This” season one and our roundtable from “Nobody Wants This” season two, multiple opinion pieces about the show, recaps for every episode of season two, our predictions for season three, our whole entire Jewish TV Substack and our last update about season three (complete with everything we knew at the time and everything we still wanted to know).
So… if history is any indication, we’ll have a lot to say when season three comes out. See you then?
New Year, More Kveller. A few dollars keeps Kveller joyfully, honestly free.
