At first, “Nobody Wants This” seemed like a pretty fitting name for Netflix's new romantic comedy show about an unexpected relationship between a sex podcaster and a Jewish rabbi. Let's just say that I absolutely didn't want this before the streaming premiere last week (on September 26th).

The core premise seemed clumsy, and the first trailer suggested an overly glossy series that was more likely to make me cringe than laugh. But I've since learned not to judge a book by its cover (or a Netflix series by its trailer), so with a weekend without plans due to a bad cold, I clicked play on Nobody Wants This” “with the expectation that I would leave relatively quickly. Instead, I found one of my favorite shows of 2024.
