Move over One Day, there's a brand new romance series in town that is breaking hearts and shattering souls left right and centre.
Don't worry, though - in the world of TV, there's nothing better than a show that makes you question everything you knew about love, right?
Despite only having landed on the streaming service a matter of days ago, this star-studded hit has skyrocketed all the way to the number two spot, where it's currently sitting behind the much more morbid Lyle and Erik Menendez Story.

Starring huge-name stars Kristen Bell and Adam Brody as the series' two central characters, the 10-parter tells the story of an unlucky-in-love sex podcaster who finds herself falling head over heels for a rabbi.
After connecting at a mutual friend's dinner party, the duo immerse one another into their hugely-differing worlds and realise they have much more in common than they once thought.
So much so, they become embroiled in a steamy romance - despite the concerns voiced by their respective friendship groups.
Following 10 hours worth of heartfelt confrontations, hot and heavy moments under the sheets and excruciatingly honest self-reflections, the series - aptly titled Nobody Wants This - has been driving viewers crazy ever since it landed, with some even going as far as to thank producers for introducing them to this absolute life-destroyer.
"'Nobody Wants This' on Netflix is so heartbreaking 😭😭😭😭😭.
"Why did I do this to myself???" one viewer demanded on X this week.
Another took to TikTok, where they claimed they'd 'not recovered' after finishing 'that 10/10 rom-com Netflix series', describing it in the caption as 'The gossip girl / the oc crossover i never knew i needed'.
"THAT FIRST KISS," they continued. "THE BANTER. THE ENDING. Well done Netflix that was absolute PERFECTION!"
A third TikToker took to the video-sharing app, where they described the show as a 'millennial fever dream'.
"POV: it's suddenly 3am and you've just finished all 10 episodes of 'Nobody Wants This' on Netflix. NOW THIS IS A ROM-COM. THE BANTER. THE CHEMISTRY. INSANE. I am so sad I finished it. OBSESSED."
They continued in the caption: "Stumbled upon this gem on and could not stop watching!
"Netflix did great with this one!
"Im obsessed and sad it is over. The soundtrack, the chemistry, the authenticity."
