“Nobody Wants This” creator Erin Foster announces possible season 2

Erin Foster is keeping her fingers crossed Nobody wants that Season 2!

The 42-year-old series creator spoke about the reviews she's received for the new Netflix romcom and whether or not Season 2 is on the table.

The 10-episode series, which began airing September 26, follows a budding romance between newly single rabbi Noah (Adam Brody) and sex podcaster Joanne (Kristen Bell), and a series of naysayers, including their family and friends , who claim their life as their own, relationship won't work.

“We’re getting a really positive response,” Foster told IndieWire ahead of the show’s premiere. “And that's why I think the conversations about a possible second season have definitely begun.”

She continued: “The story in the first season develops very slowly. So if there is a second season, I would just want to pick up where we left off and take it slow because I don't want us to get too far ahead of ourselves.”

“I want my show to stay on the air as long as possible!” she joked.

Nobody wants that is inspired by Foster's own love story. The show's concept came about in 2019 when Foster, the daughter of Grammy-winning producer David Foster, was in the process of converting to Judaism after meeting her now-husband Simon Tikhman. The couple met at a Los Angeles gym in 2018 and got engaged the following year.

During the conversion process, Foster's producing partner and manager suggested writing a show about her experience with the title Shiksha (a term generally used by Jews to describe a non-Jewish woman) and the concept “clicked,” she explained in an episode of her podcast with her sister Sara Foster. The world's first podcast.

Foster and her husband Tikhman married during a New Year's Eve celebration in 2019 and welcomed their first child, a daughter, in May. And although Tikhman is not a rabbi and the many conflicts that main characters Noah and Joanne face in the series did not apply to Foster and her husband, Foster has still described the series as a “love letter” to their marriage.

In an interview with the Los Angeles Times, That's what Foster said The plot of the Netflix rom-com was very intentional.

“I think we need positive Jewish stories now,” she said. “I think it's interesting when you have a rabbi at the helm, people focus on, 'Oh, this is a stereotype of the Jewish people.' A hot, cool, young rabbi who smokes weed. That’s the opposite of how people see a Jewish rabbi, right?”

Foster said she hopes the 10-episode season offers a more lighthearted look at Jewish culture while educating viewers about its challenges.

“What I really wanted to do was shine a positive light on Jewish culture from my perspective – my positive experiences that I brought to Jewish culture, with a little bit of fun [and] teachable moments about things in Judaism that I love without being heavy-handed,” she added. “Because I don’t think people want that on the show.”
