The Succession and Veep vets on their complicated onscreen chemistry, whether romance is in the cards for season two, and starring in two of the most politically relevant TV shows of all time.
There isn’t much of a will-they-won’t-they vibe for the central couple on Netflix’s Nobody Wants This. When Kristen Bell’s agnostic shiksa podcaster Joanne falls for Adam Brody’s hot rabbi, Noah, it is not a matter of whether they’ll get together, but how they’ll make their interfaith relationship work. But another pair on the show has a trickier dynamic: Noah’s eccentric older brother, Sasha (Timothy Simons), who helps run the family business, and Joanne’s free-spirited younger sibling, Morgan (Justine Lupe), who cohosts a sex and dating podcast with her sister.
“You have, like, no husband energy at all—that’s scary,” Morgan says to Sasha, shortly after meeting him and learning he’s married to a woman named Esther (Jackie Tohn). But they eventually bond over being their family’s respective black sheep—though Sasha doesn’t understand why Morgan is one, since she’s “cool as hell,” always has “a witty comeback,” and looks “like a total smoke show.” Later, Morgan confesses to having a sex dream about Sasha. As Joanne and Noah’s relationship blooms, their siblings grow ever closer, a bond that Sasha conceals from his wife. “It might be a little weird, but I enjoy talking to you, is that so bad?” he asks Morgan in the finale, shortly before Esther discovers their texts.
The chemistry between Morgan and Sasha, which sometimes feels more palpable than that of the lead couple, has left viewers feeling confused but compelled. Series creator Erin Foster has said season two of the hit series, which welcomes Girls executive producers Jenni Konner and Bruce Eric Kaplan as new showrunners, is “going to wrap up their weird ‘Is it romantic?’ thing.” But that hasn’t stopped fans from calling for a spin-off, making couple-y fancam videos, and, in some cases, even rooting for the characters to cheat with each other.
