Adam Brody and Kristen Bell star as rabbi and sex podcaster in a 10-part series precision-tooled for millennials
Noah Roklov is not just a good Jewish boy, but the one who puts the rest of us to shame. As a young, reform rabbi and captain of the Matzah Ballers basketball team he’s adored by Torah-studying tweens and old kvetchers alike. Naturally he dotes on his mother, while other mothers try to make him their son-in-law. Trouble is, Noah has recently become infatuated with the gentile Joanne, who’s not only a shiksa but a sex podcaster to boot.
Both bring spontaneity to a slightly-too-snappy script, and naturalism to characters that are neatly polarised: he the sage man of god, she the uninhibited, outspoken woman of earthly pleasures. It’s a dynamic which Fleabag fans already know all too well. Where these differences are initially a source of attraction, they inevitably result in conflicts both existential and familial.
