If you fell head over heels for Joanne and Noah’s chaotic love story in Nobody Wants This, you're in for a treat. Netflix has officially released the first trailer for season 2, and it looks like romance, drama, and awkward family dinners are all on the menu once again. With its return just around the corner, now’s the perfect time to dive back into this delightfully messy relationship.
A sneak peek into season 2
After capturing the hearts of viewers last year and securing a solid spot in Netflix’s Top 10, the romantic comedy is making its highly anticipated return on October 23. Kristen Bell and Adam Brody reprise their roles as the perfectly imperfect couple navigating the next chapter of their relationship—with all the highs, lows, and emotional rollercoasters you'd expect.
According to series creator Erin Foster, this season explores what happens when the honeymoon phase fades and reality starts to bite. “It’s a fascinating part of any relationship—figuring out how you deal with your partner’s friends, their family traditions, or just planning a holiday together without losing your mind,” she explains.
Love gets complicated
The trailer hints at a season packed with tension, laughter, and genuinely touching moments. As Joanne and Noah grow closer, they’ll also face new challenges—from religious differences to awkward introductions with each other’s friends, and those dreaded first major milestones like birthdays and family holidays.
But don’t worry, the spark is still very much alive. Their chemistry hasn’t fizzled out, and despite the bumps in the road, it’s clear this couple is committed to figuring it out—one awkward brunch at a time. After all, what's love without a few emotional detours?
New faces join the fun
Season 2 doesn’t just bring back our favourite couple—it also introduces a fresh lineup of characters who promise to stir things up even more. Leighton Meester, real-life partner of Adam Brody and best known as Blair Waldorf, joins the cast as Abby. Also joining are Miles Fowler (Bottoms), Alex Karpovsky (Girls), playing a character dubbed “Big Noah,” and Arian Moayed, who steps in as Dr. Andy, a therapist who might be exactly what Morgan needs—or not.
Each new character brings their own flavour to the mix, adding depth and humour to a show that’s already proven it can balance comedy with real emotional stakes.
Whether you're in it for the laughs, the love, or just the joy of watching people figure themselves out, Nobody Wants This continues to offer a refreshingly modern take on romance. Season 2 promises to dive deeper, hit harder, and—hopefully—leave us rooting even more for this brilliantly flawed couple. Let the romantic chaos begin.
