The creator of the hit Netflix comedy Nobody Wants This has responded to star Adam Brody\u2019s recent support of Palestine amid the Israel-Gaza war<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\u201cEveryone is entitled to a different opinion,\u201d Erin Foster said in an interview<\/a> with the Not Skinny Not Fat podcast when asked about Brody calling for<\/a> a free Palestine.<\/p>\n

\u201cYou know, it\u2019s complicated,\u201d said Foster, who also has an acting role in the new season. \u201cI think our work environment, our set is very similar to dinner tables around the world where people are having debate and discussion and disagreeing.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhile I love Adam, I also disagree with him. And that\u2019s OK.\u201d<\/p>\n

Nobody Wants This, which returns for its third season this week, chronicles the unexpected love story between agnostic podcast host Joanne Williams (Kristen Bell) and rabbi Noah Roklov (Brody).<\/p>\n

The story was inspired by Foster\u2019s own real-life love story after she converted to Judaism<\/a> after meeting her husband.<\/p>\n

\u201cAs the creator of the show, all I can say is that I want our Jewish fans to know that I see you and I hear you and I understand how you feel,\u201d Foster said. \u201cThe show has always been and always will be a love letter to Judaism. That is why I made this show. It\u2019s because of how beautiful of an experience I\u2019ve had becoming Jewish and being a Jewish person.<\/p>\n

\u201cSitting here right now at this time in the world where there is almost zero positive representation of Jewish people, I think it\u2019s so important to have that.\u201d<\/p>\n

Last month, Brody opened up about his political views for the first time. \u201cPut me down as thinking it\u2019s a genocide. Put me down as wanting a free Palestine,\u201d he told GQ<\/a>. \u201cIt\u2019s awful that it\u2019s taken so much death and misery, but it does feel like it\u2019s reaching a breaking point that it should have a while ago.\u201d<\/p>\n

Nobody Wants This\u2019s third season sees Joanne and Noah move in together while their siblings continue to look for love. In a four-star review<\/a>, the Guardian\u2019s Jack Seale said the new episodes will make fans of the show \u201cfall in love with it all over again\u201d.<\/p>\n

Foster has often posted about the Israel-Gaza war<\/a> on social media.<\/p>\n

\u201cNothing that is happening in Israel\/Palestine is acceptable or comfortable to look at,\u201d she wrote<\/a> in 2021. \u201cInnocent lives lost as casualties of war, as well as the atrocious lack of human rights that exist under a Hamas run government.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere is a chance for peace here, and it involves a two state resolution where both exist next to each other, respecting each other\u2019s beliefs, and sharing the holy land that all three major religions call sacred. Palestinians deserve to live in peace without fear. So do Jews.\u201d<\/p>\n

An independent UN inquiry<\/a> in June found that Israel continues to commit genocide by targeting children in Gaza.<\/p>\n
