Netflix has renewed the romantic comedy 'Nobody Wants This' for a third season, following the recent release of its second installment. The series, starring Kristen Bell and Adam Brody, will begin production soon in Los Angeles ahead of a 2026 premiere. Creator Erin Foster expressed excitement about continuing the story of the beloved couple.
Renewal Announcement
Netflix announced the renewal of 'Nobody Wants This' for Season 3 on November 4, 2025, less than two weeks after Season 2 premiered on October 23, 2025. The series, a rom-com created by Erin Foster, has gained popularity for its heartfelt exploration of interfaith romance and personal growth.
'I couldn't be more excited to head into a third season of this show,' Foster said in a statement. 'It is a privilege to be able to write about my favorite couple on a scale like this. As long as it doesn't take too much time away from me watching reality TV at night, I'll do it for as long as they want me to!' Co-showrunners Jenni Konner and Bruce Eric Kaplan added, 'We are so grateful to Netflix and 20th for giving us another season of "Nobody Wants This." This job is criminally fun. Working with the uniquely gifted Erin Foster, this unbelievable cast of talented, hilarious pros, amazing writers, and incredible crew has been a truly great experience.'
Season 2 Recap
Season 2 focused on the evolving relationship between Joanne (Kristen Bell) and Noah (Adam Brody), who delayed discussions about Joanne's potential conversion to Judaism. Noah's search for a more inclusive community strained their timelines, but Joanne's perspective shifted after a pivotal talk with Esther (Jackie Tohn). 'It was actually more of a lightbulb moment,' Bell explained. 'What Esther says to her on that couch — "You have all these Jewish qualities already; you're not changing at all" — lets Joanne completely reformulate what that identity would look like.'
Subplots included Sasha (Timothy Simons) and Esther's marriage struggles, ending in separation, and Morgan (Justine Lupe) ending her relationship with Dr. Andy.
Production and Release Details
Season 3 production will start soon in Los Angeles, with an anticipated 2026 release. The first two seasons aired 13 months apart, in September 2024 and October 2025, suggesting a similar gap. Fans can expect further updates as filming begins.
