Nobody Wants This (Netflix, 2024,10 episodes) is a love story with many twists and an ending that is not foreseeable. The episodes have a good story line, with a well-written scrip and believable performances all round. It is romantic, it is silly, perhaps even absurd, and the characters are somewhat stereotypical at times. However, it is a satisfying, well-told fairytale that is well worth watching.
