The Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt

Great song? Good show? Bad movie? What should be enjoyed and what should be avoided.

The Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt

I have been watching this on Netflix. It's very goofy, and bears the unmistakable stamp of Tina Fey on it. If one liked 30 Rock, I think there's a good chance one would like this as well.

It's primarily set in New York City, although sometimes in Indiana and South Dakota as well. There's a lot of New York in-humour. Like this one, from near the beginning of one of the earlier episodes (I don't feel like this is a spoiler).

Kimmy Schmidt (who spent 15 years in an underground bunker after she was kidnapped by a cult - you learn about this literally in the first scene of the first episode) is having a nightmare and starts choking her roommate in her sleep. She wakes up, and asks what is going on, to which her roommate responds, you tell me, and then follows up with this quote.

This isn’t the Chinatown bus! You can’t just choke someone who’s sleeping!


I've never taken the Chinatown bus. And now I'm thinking, I never will.

Make sure you watch the “choose your own adventure” post-series movie, too!
Is there such a thing?
