Everyone is loving Adam Brody and Kristin Bell in Nobody Wants This.
Perhaps youve already burned through all 10 episodes of Netflixs new smash rom-com seriesNobody Wants This.
If so, then I dont blame you.

(Yep, a chemistry joke.
I was pre-med for several years … That knowledge needs to go somewhere.)
Of course, those arent the only reasons for the success ofNobody Wants This.
For reference, lets revisit some of the shows best moments.
I mean, just the fact that they didnt meet through an app is revolutionary.
But then these two instantly hit it off, volleying witticisms and leaning into their flirtation.
It all culminates in a hilarious misunderstanding that expertly calibrates their tension.
In other words: Rom com perfection.
And then Noah puts his hands on Joannes face and lower back and bye.
Thats a wrap for my time on Earth!
According to Kristin Bell, even the shows crew members were gaspingduring this scene.
Sassy supporting characters
Supporting characters often steal the show in rom coms.
Joan Cusack and Judy Greer instantly come to mind, for some reason.
However, the supporting characters inNobody Wants Thisdont just steal the show; they have arcs of their own.
Shes also snappy and sarcastic both prerequisites for rom com icons.
But speaking of her mother-in-law Bina … Phew.
For instance: Hes on track to become Head Rabbi and needs a Jewish spouse.
But suffice it to say that it is satisfying without being too cliche.
I gasped despite myself.
Well, OK, if were being honest, I gasped several times during this series despite myself.
Needless to say, I cant wait for Season 2.
