Nobody Wants This has created more buzz than any other Netflix series this fall, and its second chapter is just around the corner. Kristen Bell and Adam Brody are coming back for another ride after the streaming giant renewed this acclaimed rom-com series for Season 2.

Nobody Wants This stars Bell and Body as a temperamental podcaster and a rookie rabbi, as they try to form a lasting relationship despite their different outlooks on life. In addition to the leading duo, the cast of this hit series also includes Justine Lupe, Timothy Simons, Stephanie Faracy, Michael Hitcock, Tovah Feldshuh, Paul Ben-Victor, Emily Arlook, Jackie Tohn, Sherry Cola, and Shiloh Berman.

This series is loosely based on the life of its creator Erin Foster, who described it as her career highlight. She served as its co-showrunner in Season 1 alongside Craig DiGregorio, but they’ll step down in Season 2, letting Girls alums Jenni Konner and Bruce Eric Kaplan take their spot.

“I’m so lucky to be able to continue this story, and to do it alongside Jenni Konner and Bruce Eric Kaplan, who I’ve been such a fan of since Girls… Justice for healthy relationships being the most romantic!” Foster said in a statement.

Nobody Wants This premiered on Netflix on September 26, and it managed to top the streamer’s list of the top 10 most-watched English-language TV shows.
