Nobody Wants This Season 3 follows Joanne and Noah living together while Joanne begins converting to Judaism. The third season is less about whether they stay together and more about how they build a shared life as partners.

• Relationship focus: Co-showrunner Jenni Konner said, “We didn’t have to do any more ‘Will they, won’t they?’ We know they are going to, and it was sort of, ‘How are they going to?’”
• Joanne’s decision: Kristen Bell explained, “Noah cannot be with Joanne unless she converts but doesn’t want her to do it for him. Joanne doesn’t want to change for a guy but wants to be with Noah.”
• Conversion journey: Creator Erin Foster said Joanne is looking for “structure, purpose, boundaries, values, and traditions,” adding, “Judaism can give her all of those things.”
• Sasha and Esther: Sasha’s separation from Esther continues, with both characters returning to dating.
• Morgan’s story: Justine Lupe’s Morgan becomes an “(almost) media sensation,” while her unresolved emotional tension with Sasha remains part of the new season.
