The popular romantic comedy series, inspired by creator Erin Foster’s personal experiences, follows a podcast host who’s unsure about religion (Kristen Bell) and a rabbi (Adam Brody) as they fall in love. Despite coming from very different worlds and having different beliefs, they navigate the joys and challenges of a new relationship. The first season premiered on Netflix on September 26, 2024, and quickly received positive feedback, with viewers loving the charming and realistic portrayal of Joanne and Noah’s romance. While the second season received slightly less positive reviews—dropping from a 95% rating on Rotten Tomatoes to 78%—it was still applauded for its witty writing, excellent actors, and its unique perspective on relationships between people from different backgrounds.
