What The New Cast Members Mean For Nobody Wants This Season 2
The Show’s Circle Is Expanding
Nobody Wants Thisis a classic romantic comedy that’s premised around the opposites attract trope, zeroing in on the obstacles Joanne and Noah face en route to falling in love. If it were a movie, rivals and secondary romances would get some focus, but only so much as the runtime allows without taking away focus from the main pairing.A television show is a little different.
10 Best Shows To Watch After Nobody Wants This
Kristen Bell’s Nobody Wants This has been incredibly successful on Netflix, and luckily there are a whole slew of good shows like it to watch next.
After theNobody Wants Thisseason 1 ending, in which Joanne and Noah decide to stay together despite the obstacles, the show was going to need to mix things up one way or another.Turning the lens to the supporting cast is one way to do that. However, series creator Erin Foster and new showrunners Jenni Konner and Bruce Eric Kaplan have gone a cut above by setting up reunions that everyone is excited to see. That includes Meester, but also Lupe and Moayed. They were pitch-perfect with their dry comedy, becoming scene-stealers onSuccessionwhile playing Willa and Stewy respectively.
