Rescued after 15 years in a cult, Kimmy Schmidt decides to reclaim her life by venturing to New York, where she experiences everyday life with wide-eyed enthusiasm. On a whim, she rents a room from Titus, a gay wannabe Broadway actor, who makes ends meet as a street performer in Times Square. The unlikely pair find they're well-suited to help each other out, with Titus reintroducing Kimmy to modern life, and her providing him with the inspiration that you should never give up. Together they'll make it through whatever life throws at them.

Blessed with originality and a spot-on performance from Ellie Kemper, The Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt is as odd as it is hilarious.

Parker Molloy Bitch Media This show was made to be streamed; it's the TV equivalent of a run-on sentence, and I love it. Jan 25, 2021 Full Review Chitra Ramaswamy Guardian It's the most whip-smart, subversive, life-loving and hilarious sitcom produced this year. Dec 17, 2015 Full Review David Bianculli NPR At first, things go charmingly for the perennially perky Kimmy in this strange new world, until they don't. In this scene, she returns to her new roommate, played by Burgess, and is anything but perky. But, like this new series, she is funny. Oct 14, 2015 Full Review Peter Counter That Shelf This one is all about ingredients. If you liked 30 Rock and enjoyed Ellie Kemper in The Office (she was easily the best late series addition to the cast) then Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt should have your attention. Aug 13, 2024 Full Review Alex Diedrick Uproxx This joyful series has no business being so sunny, especially considering its pitch-black premise... Nov 11, 2021 Full Review Stephen Marche Esquire Magazine A straight sitcom that has pure darkness lurking on all sides. Oct 19, 2018 Full Review Read all reviews

Nicholas C This is the only show that generally made me laugh out loud in a while. Kimmy's flamboyant personality mixed with her crash outs is just so funny, deep and sad and her always wanting what's best for people and also trying to generally make sense of the world she was deprived of at a young age is a wonderful concept with excellent execution Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/09/25 Full Review Vanessa S One of my favorite shows. You fall in love with the characters and it's nostalgic and hilarious. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 05/07/24 Full Review Michelle L So worth watching, fantastic writing Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/20/24 Full Review john N Very funny. Gives odd 30 Rick vibes. Lots of jokes per minute. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 10/14/23 Full Review Krishna K hilarious and entertaining, Carol Kane lovely as always, Ellie Kemper, Tina Fey, Jane Krakowski, Adam Campbell are some of the faces I remember from other comedy movies and series, Tituss Burgess is awesome but I haven't seen him before probably because he was mostly doing voice overs for animated movies Rated 5 out of 5 stars 07/09/23 Full Review Carla D The first couple of seasons were quirky and fun. The third was less quirky and more strange. The fouth gave us a robot getting drunk and vomiting, a puppet penis and the character of Titus being redused to something resembleing a diagnosable mentaly handicapped barely functioning child. It started out fun. It should have ended in season 2. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 01/24/23 Full Review Read all reviews
