Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt to end with season 4 and a movie series finale

Last Updated on July 30, 2021

Fans of Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt will be saddened to learn that the upcoming fourth season, which will premiere on May 30th, is looking as though it will be its last. According to Deadline, everyone involved with the Netflix series felt it was time to end the show, but, it may not be the last we see of the series as there are talks of a movie which will give it a proper finale.

Both Netflix and Universal Television declined to comment, but there's something to be said about not overstaying your welcome, or at least that's what I assume is happening as I've never gotten around to watching Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt. Netflix will also squeeze a little more mileage out of the show as the fourth season will launch in two parts, with six episodes debuting later this month and the remaining seven to launch at a later date. The streaming service also revealed a sneak peek at the opening sequence of the first episode, which finds Kimmy (Ellie Kemper) making her way to her first day as HR manager at Giztoob. However, the excitement of Kimmy's new position in life reaches a record screeching halt when she arrives at the office and finds that her first task is to fire someone. But have no fear…it will be done the Kimmy way.

Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt follows Kimmy Schmidt (Kemper) as she continues to adjust to the 21st century and learn more about who she really is. Joining Kimmy on her journey are her best friend and roommate, Titus Andromedon (Tituss Burgess); her former-employer-turned-friend Jacqueline White (Jane Krakowski); and landlord Lillian Kaushtupper (Carol Kane). The first part of Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt will hit Netflix on May 30th.

How do you feel about Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt coming to an end? Is it time or do you think there's room for more?
