First comes love, then comes life. The last time we saw agnostic podcast host Joanne (Kristen Bell) and unconventional (hot) rabbi Noah (Adam Brody), their unmatched chemistry surprised everyone in their lives, including her sister Morgan (Justine Lupe), his brother Sasha (Timothy Simons) and sister-in-law Esther (Jackie Tohn), and even themselves. Their spark proved stronger than all of the obstacles trying to keep them apart. Now they're back, and fully committed to merging their lives -- and loved ones - together. But their differences still exist and can't be ignored. The challenge now is not just falling in love against all odds, but staying together in spite of them.
The comedy stars Kristen Bell, Adam Brody, Justine Lupe, Timothy Simons, and Jackie Tohn.
