Hey Everyone, Guess What? ‘Nathan For You’ Is Returning

It’s been two years since “Nathan For You” aired its third season and most of us had given up hope that we would ever again get to watch hapless, well-intentioned entrepreneurs be duped out of a bright future by a man with a fake business degree and a sadistic sense of humor.

But today, Nathan Fielder restored that hope in a single tweet.

It’s pretty bewildering to know there are still business owners out there who haven’t been warned of a man called Nathan whose sole ambition is to destroy small businesses. Perhaps this was the reason for the two-year mysterious break. He was waiting just long enough for people to forget about him before re-entering our lives with a vengeance.

As a person with no intention of ever “creating jobs,” I’m personally thrilled about this news but I can’t imagine it won’t send cold chills up the backbones of people with Etsy shops.

If, like me, you’re anxious for September 28 to get here, bide your time with one of the true hits from last season.

I hope you appreciated this article. Before you go, I’d like to ask you to please support the Forward’s award-winning journalism this Passover.

In this age of misinformation, our work is needed like never before. We report on the news that matters most to American Jews, driven by truth, not ideology.

At a time when newsrooms are closing or cutting back, the Forward has removed its paywall. That means for the first time in our 126-year history, Forward journalism is free to everyone, everywhere. With an ongoing war, rising antisemitism, and a flood of disinformation that may affect the upcoming election, we believe that free and open access to Jewish journalism is imperative.

Readers like you make it all possible. Right now, we’re in the middle of our Passover Pledge Drive and we need 500 people to step up and make a gift to sustain our trustworthy, independent journalism.

Make a gift of any size and become a Forward member today. You’ll support our mission to tell the American Jewish story fully and fairly. 

— Rachel Fishman Feddersen, Publisher and CEO
