Movie #3380 .........................."Nobody Wants This" (Netflix) Season 1

 Movie #3380 "Nobody Wants This" (Netflix) Season 1  - I liked this show from the start and watched it all in one night --- I thought it was esp. good in showing relationships -- I am a huge Hallmark watcher, and most of the conflicts in those relationships stem from not being truthful about something, so I welcomed a relationship building here mostly based on truth --- and if someone is caught covering something up, that person apologies immediately --- so in that way, it is not Halmarkian.  And it's still not that easy when truth is used most of the time.   Plus, very rarely is religion hit head on like this show, and as a result I feel I learned a lot about the Jewish religion just by watching this show.  One theme  I liked about the show is that it argues with the the thought that love isn't always enough (a strong Hallmark theme, for sure).  I'd give this 4.5 --- there will be a second season.
