Become Unbreakable

“UNBREAKABLE, THEY ALIVE DAMMIT, IT’S A MIRACLE!” – the catchy theme song to the best comedic  Netflix original series, “Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt”. If you’re feeling happy go-lucky or in the mindset that nothing can bring you down, or even if you’ve been feeling slow, sluggish, and need a great new motivator that isn’t involving people you know, you need to watch Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt. If you’ve never heard of this one of a kind Netflix show, read the synopsis of the show here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unbreakable_Kimmy_Schmidt

            When the first season was released just this past March, the show took off in every best way possible. The reviews were simply amazing, however there was also some side controversy regarding the storyline and the darkness of it that the show never really touches on. However, critics continue today to rave about Kimmy and her friends Titus, Lillian, and Jacqueline Voorhees, which are very crucial and hysterical additions to the show. Especially Titus and Jacqueline add some pretty unique humor to the show, from Jacqueline’s hilarious selfie moves, to Titus’s “Pinot Noir” music video. The show is definitely an up lifter. I could rewatch the entire season in one sitting, still laughing at every original joke or funny phrase that is said (mainly by Kimmy or Titus). The jokes never get old.
            Tina Fey, a well-known comedian and one of the creators of the successful show, 30 Rock, is one of the reasons why Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt exists. Fey loves to incorporate humor that involves serious societal issues within today’s culture, you just have to pay close attention throughout all the episodes and depict certain phrases that characters say in a variety of the social situations that the characters get into throughout this first season.
            I could say a lot more about this show. I could go on for hours and hours on why you should watch this show. If you enjoy great humor, dynamic characters (and consistent character development), the beauty of friendship and being in the big, real world out on your own trying to make a name for yourself. This show is for you.

  1. I love this show and I'm so happy you decided to post about it! I randomly came across it over the summer and decided to watch it as a joke and I ended up watching the whole season that day. The show is definitely one to cheer you up because it is hard not to laugh when watching it. What else can you expect from a show created by Tina Fey and Robert Carlock. I can't wait for them to release a new season!
