If you binged all 10 episodes ofNobody Wants Thisthis weekend, then texted your best friend/sister/therapist, “Adam Brody is so hot,” you’re not alone.

Thanks toAdam Brody’s unique blend of sweet and sexy (we’re calling it “swexy”) and his turn as a Jewish heartthrob in the Netflix show, the Internet is having a “Hot Rabbi” fall.

As longtime members of the Adam Brody fan club, we’re thrilled to welcome all of these new members (Shalom, and help yourself to a bagel and schmear at the buffet). We’ve been kvelling about the actor’s swexiness since his breakout role as Dave Rygalski in season 3 ofGilmore Girlswhere he made fans swoon when he read the Bible in one night just so he could take Lane Kim to the prom. (Meanwhile, my husband still complains about the time I made him try gefilte fish at my family’s Passover seder.)

But what really activated the PEOPLE Slack, was the way his character kissesKristen Bell’s Joanne in episode 2. Once again, he pulls a move that only happens on screen when he asks her to set down her ice cream (and her bag! on the sidewalk!) so he can cup her face in a way that makes us want to write Rabbi Noah in bubble letters in our notebooks. That kiss was game over for Joanne. And all of us.

So raise your kiddush cup to Adam Brody, the mensch with muscles who even managed to sweepBlair Waldorfoff her feet. L’chaim!
