Netflix romcom series with nearly perfect Rotten Tomatoes score bumps Monsters from top spot

As a seasoned gamer with a soft spot for engaging storylines, I must say that “Nobody Wants This” has been a refreshing change of pace from the usual blood and gore of the top-ranking series on Netflix lately. The blend of humor, romance, and real-life situations makes it relatable and entertaining, much like navigating through an epic quest in my favorite MMO games.


Although Monsters had been reigning at the peak of Netflix’s TV chart since its premiere, it was recently dethroned by a newly released romantic comedy series, landing it in the second spot.

Over the last several weeks, true-crime shows and murder mysteries have dominated Netflix’s viewership, with hit series such as Monsters: Season 2 and The Perfect Duo grabbing attention.

Despite some pushback towards Ryan Murphy’s recent production on the streaming platform, another show has climbed to the top spot instead.

The ten-episode series titled “Nobody Wants This,” featuring stars like Kristen Bell and Adam Brody, has claimed the throne on the streaming platform with a remarkable 93% rating on Rotten Tomatoes.

The show was penned by Erin Foster, a writer most recognized for co-creating the satirical VH1 series “Barely Famous” alongside her sister Sara.

Drawing inspiration from incidents in Foster’s personal experiences, the story unfolds around Joanne (portrayed by Bell), a podcast host who delves into topics of sex and dating, as she encounters and finds herself drawn to Noah (played by Brody), a rabbi.

The series follows a classic “will they, won’t they” romantic comedy structure, with the love story between Joanne and Noah frequently facing challenges due to their vastly different lifestyles.

In the year 2018, Foster encountered a comparable predicament when she ran into Simon Tikhman at a gym in Los Angeles. Although Tikhman wasn’t a rabbi, he was Jewish and made it clear to Foster, “Any woman I end up marrying must be Jewish.

Although she wasn’t religious, the author chose to adopt Judaism prior to marrying Tikhman in 2019. They reside in California currently and have a 4-month-old baby girl named Noa.

“The genuine and relatable quality that Foster infused into Nobody Wants This significantly contributes to the show’s popularity, as one fan expressed on X/Twitter: ‘At last, NOBODY WANTS THIS is flawless. A romantic comedy that truly delivers on both romance and humor.’

A person said, “I didn’t know it would take so long, but someone finally paired Adam Brody and Kristen Bell in a TV series. Thanks to whoever made that decision, you’ve given me exactly what I desired and then some! I urgently require another season right now!

A different supporter expressed, “This is SOOOOO good! I’ve been laughing and kicking my feet non-stop.
