‘Nobody Wants This’ Renewed for Season 4 at Netflix

The Kristen Bell and Adam Brody-led rom-com will return after delivering Netflix's biggest opening week for a returning comedy series this year.

Netflix has given the rom-com series "Nobody Wants This" a fourth season, following the success of its third season. The show, starring Kristen Bell and Adam Brody, debuted on October 22 and quickly gained popularity, earning 6.2 million views in its first week. In its second week, the show attracted 7.2 million views, establishing itself as the second most-watched English-language series of the week and setting a new record for a returning comedy series.

Season 3 continued the story of Joanne, an agnostic podcaster, and Noah, a rabbi, as they navigate their relationship while dealing with the complex dynamics between Joanne's sister, Morgan, and Noah's brother, Sasha. Co-showrunners Erin Foster, Jenni Konner, and Bruce Eric Kaplan expressed their delight in renewing the series, calling it a "true cultural phenomenon" that resonates with audiences.

Netflix's VP of U.S. Comedy Series, Tracey Pakosta, emphasized the show's ability to grow with its audience. The fourth season will also be filmed in Los Angeles, alongside other Netflix series such as "One Hundred Percent," "Poser," "Monster" Season 4, "The Lincoln Lawyer" Season 5, and "Forever" Season 2. The cast of "Nobody Wants This" includes Stephanie Faracy, Michael Hitchcock, Paul Ben-Victor, Tovah Feldshuh, Andrew Rannells, Sarah Silverman, Shiloh Bearman, and Sherry Cola, among others.

The show's executive producers include Erin and Sara Foster, along with Bell, Konner, Kaplan, Silver, Levitan, Stokdyk, and Morton, as well as Oly Obst. Despite some differences in beliefs among the cast members, tensions remained low, with Feldshuh clarifying that conflicting opinions did not translate to on-set discord.
