"An on-form return for the hot rabbi-featuring romcom whose plot (are an agnostic sex podcaster and a rabbi really compatible?) plays second fiddle to its millennials-pleasing casting (The Good Place's Kristen Bell and The OC's Adam Brody). What our reviewer said The chemistry between Brody still able to trade on the heart-throb status he accrued two decades ago playing beautiful nerd Seth Cohen in The OC and Bell, who specialises in acid-tongued cool, remains electric."
"The high-stakes drama stretches credulity but its performances are excellent, its action is tense and its script is highly erudite. Keep that disbelief close, and it will feel more like a comedy in places. But keep it at bay, and much like our own real-world politics it is a nail-biter."
Streaming services have released a range of titles spanning genres from romantic comedy to political drama. Nobody Wants This pairs an agnostic sex podcaster with a rabbi and foregrounds millennial-pleasing casting such as Kristen Bell and Adam Brody, with strong on-screen chemistry. The Ridge follows an anaesthetist who flies to New Zealand for her sister's wedding and discovers the sister dead, offering a layered thriller led by Lauren Lyle. Cocaine Quarterback presents a zany true-crime tone about an American football player turned drug kingpin. The Diplomat delivers tense action, erudite scripting, and notable performances despite stretches of credulity.
