The Evolution of Noah and Joanne's Relationship
The second season of the Netflix comedy Nobody Wants This has captivated audiences with its portrayal of the evolving relationship between Noah (played by Adam Brody) and Joanne (played by Kristen Bell). As the show continues to explore their journey, fans have been treated to a deeper look into the challenges and triumphs of their partnership.
In the season 2 finale, titled "When Noah Met Joanne," the couple once again chooses each other, despite the hurdles they face. The season has seen them navigate the complexities of merging their lives—ranging from blending friend groups to hosting dinner parties. However, one significant issue remains unaddressed: whether Joanne will convert to Judaism. This unresolved tension adds an extra layer of depth to their story, making it more compelling than ever.
Like the first season, the finale features a major event that brings the characters together. In this case, it’s Morgan’s (Justin Lupe) engagement party. Amidst the celebration, Joanne and Noah break up, only for them to reunite moments later when Joanne realizes she might be ready to make the commitment to Judaism. The season concludes in the same way as the first: with a chase and a kiss, leaving fans hopeful for what’s next.
Kristen Bell shared her thoughts on the new season with Entertainment Weekly, highlighting the ebb and flow of relationships. “I think it's a lot like life, which is an ebb and flow,” she said. “Any relationship, you get super close to someone and then something builds up where the two people get nervous and they ebb and then they flow back together. So I see each season as a bit of an ebb and flow with friction moments provided in between for entertainment value.”
Bell also emphasized the responsibility of the cast and crew to deliver what the audience wants. “I think we have an obligation, being part of the filmmaking team of this show, to give the people what they want,” she continued. “And it is very clear that the people want these two characters to be together, but we also have the mandate of making sure it's entertaining and they're not just having a great day every episode. That's a delicate balance to not rip the rug out from people and say, 'Well, now they're long distance,' or 'Now they completely break up,' but to show those tiny, intimate moments that the audience fell in love with the first season.”
Adam Brody added his perspective on the difference between the season 1 and season 2 endings. “In terms of the difference, I think it's the same but more,” he said. “They came together in the end of last season, like, 'I'm committing to you.' And now they've gotten a much longer, more in-depth look at the difficulties and the compromises necessary of that and are still saying, all that aside, 'I know what I'm getting into and I'm still doing it.' So I think it's a stronger commitment.”
As the second season of Nobody Wants This wraps up, fans are left eager for more. The show continues to explore the intricacies of love, commitment, and the challenges that come with it. With its blend of humor, heart, and relatable moments, the series has become a favorite among viewers. Season 2 is currently available for streaming on Netflix, offering a fresh take on the beloved characters and their journey.
