Nobody Wants This

Beer Score: 2

Genre: Romance, Comedy

Description: Nobody Wants This is a refreshingly modern romantic comedy-drama streaming on Netflix, created by Erin Foster. The show follows Joanne (Kristen Bell), a candid, agnostic podcast host exploring the messy world of dating, and Noah (Adam Brody), a devoted yet unconventional rabbi. When these two very different people fall for each other, they must navigate not only their own quirky personalities and life goals but also the complexities of faith, family, and identity.

Reviewer: Caden

I give it 2 beers because it takes a while to pick up, but the plot behind the show has a coming-of-age story. It took me a while to really get into it, but once I did, I didn’t want to turn it off. Definitely a show you need to watch the whole time, not just in the background.

Review Scale Below

On this scale, fewer beers means a better movie. If a film keeps you so engaged that you don’t need a drink, it scores low. The more beers it takes to get through, the worse the movie was.

  • 1 Beer: Great — only one beer for fun, not survival.

  • 2 Beers: Decent — had a few slow parts, but still enjoyable.

  • 3 Beers: Meh — starting to need drinks to stay entertained.

  • 4 Beers: Rough — alcohol improves it more than the plot does.

  • 5 Beers: Terrible — only bearable if you’re too buzzed to care.
