Netflix’s Hit Romantic Comedy Returns With Season 3 and 6.2 Million Views — Critics Call It One of the Best Shows on Streaming

Netflix has another major hit on its hands as the third season of Nobody Wants This delivers impressive global viewing figures, proving that audiences still cannot get enough of Kristen Bell and Adam Brody’s unlikely romance.

The Emmy-nominated romantic comedy returned on October 22, 2026, and quickly climbed to the top of Netflix’s daily television rankings.

With its sharp humor, irresistible chemistry and refreshingly complicated love story, the series has once again established itself as one of the streaming platform’s most popular comedies.

Nobody Wants This Season 3 Becomes a Global Netflix Hit

According to Netflix’s viewing figures for October 19–25, Nobody Wants This Season 3 attracted 6.2 million views and accumulated 29.4 million hours watched.

The impressive performance placed the series among Netflix’s biggest English-language television releases of the week.

It ranked third on the overall global television chart, behind Josh Hartnett’s thriller Below, which recorded 7.7 million views, and Lupin Part 4, which attracted 6.4 million.

The romantic comedy also reached number one on Netflix’s daily Top 10 shortly after its release.

For a series that first premiered in 2024, the latest figures demonstrate the enduring appeal of its central relationship.

What Is Nobody Wants This About?

The series follows Joanne, played by Kristen Bell, an outspoken agnostic podcaster who has become increasingly cynical about dating and relationships.

Her outlook changes when she meets Noah, portrayed by Adam Brody, an unconventional rabbi who has recently become single.

Their unexpected encounter at a dinner party sparks an immediate attraction, despite their contrasting beliefs, lifestyles and expectations.

As their relationship develops, Joanne and Noah must navigate the challenges of falling in love with someone from a very different world.

The show combines familiar romantic comedy themes with witty dialogue, adult humor and emotional sincerity.

Much of its success comes from the chemistry between Bell and Brody, whose performances make the unconventional romance feel both believable and entertaining.

The supporting cast includes Justine Lupe, Timothy Simons and Jackie Tohn, with guest appearances from Seth Rogen, Leighton Meester and Leslie Grossman.

Critics Praise Kristen Bell and Adam Brody’s Chemistry

Nobody Wants This has earned widespread critical approval, holding an overall 87% score on Rotten Tomatoes.

Critics have particularly praised the series for balancing romantic tension with comedy and authentic character relationships.

Natasha Alvar of The Fiction Department highlighted its combination of “sizzling chemistry between the romantic leads, hilarious set-pieces, and a talented ensemble.”

Austin Burke of Flick Fan Nation similarly praised the connection between Bell and Brody, while crediting the supporting cast for strengthening the series.

Audience reactions have also been overwhelmingly positive, with the show earning an 84% viewer score on Rotten Tomatoes.

Some have described it as “funny and engaging,” while another called it “the best romcom series I’ve watched in years.”

Unlike many romantic comedies that rely entirely on predictable misunderstandings, Nobody Wants This explores the genuine difficulties of maintaining a relationship across different beliefs and family expectations.

With three seasons now available, the series offers an ideal binge-watch for anyone looking for a comedy that delivers both laughter and heartfelt romance.
