Timothy Simons’ ‘Nobody Wants This’ Storyline Fuels Season 4 Questions

Sasha’s story moves to the center

Timothy Simons returns as Sasha in the third season of Netflix’s romantic comedy Nobody Wants This, which began streaming Oct. 22. Netflix’s season guide says Sasha and his estranged wife, Esther, played by Jackie Tohn, are pushed back into dating, while Sasha and Morgan, played by Justine Lupe, are circling an attraction neither has admitted. ^[1]

The new season gives the supporting characters a major relationship storyline alongside Joanne and Noah’s romance. In a Netflix interview published Oct. 23, Simons and Lupe discussed the New York-set episode in which Sasha and Morgan’s feelings become physical, and the possible strain that could create between their families. ^[2]

A love triangle leaves questions open

The storyline does not end with a simple choice between Morgan and Esther. Entertainment Weekly’s post-season interview reports that Sasha also reconnects physically with Esther, leaving the relationship between the separated spouses unresolved while Morgan’s connection with Sasha deepens. ^[3]

The actors have not presented a single preferred outcome. Simons described the characters as growing in different directions, while Lupe said Morgan’s next steps could involve Sasha or someone else. Simons summed up the odd-couple appeal by saying it is “cool when weirdos find each other.” ^[3]

Simons’ performance has also leaned into Sasha’s awkward, comic side. CinemaBlend reported that for an earlier season-two scene, he rehearsed and performed a choreographed dance to Ariana Grande’s “7 Rings” for Esther, a moment that gave the character a conspicuous blend of sincerity and self-conscious humor. ^[5]

Season 4 remains unconfirmed

There is no confirmed fourth season or release date. Deadline reported Oct. 25 that creator Erin Foster believes there is more story to tell, while also cautioning that she is not getting too attached to a continuation. Netflix has not announced a renewal. ^[4]

That leaves Sasha’s triangle as an open thread rather than a promise of another season. If Netflix orders more episodes, the story could return to the consequences of the New York encounter and Sasha’s separation from Esther, but no season-four plot or production plan has been confirmed. ^{[2] [4]}
