What is Nobody Wants This about?

Joanne (Bell) is sarcastic and agnostic and always choosing toxic men – then talking about them on the podcast she co-hosts with her sister. Noah (Brody) is a very newly single rabbi. But when the two meet at a dinner party, there’s clearly bucketloads of something there. The series explores the pair’s burgeoning romance, their differing beliefs and what their families think about it all. “Dad’s gay and Mom is still in love with him,” says Joanne of her own parents, while Noah’s family want to protect their golden boy.

The series is written by Erin Foster (a sidenote to any fellow Real Housewives Of Beverly Hills fans: Erin is the daughter of David Foster, who once memorably forbade a sing-along at a dinner party), who converted to Judaism when she met her now husband.

“This show is based on the only good decision I ever made: falling for a nice Jewish boy,” Foster said. “But I realised that being happy is way harder than being miserable – there’s nothing to complain about. So, I created this show based on all the ways that finding the right person can be so hard.”
