First trailer for Tina Fey’s Netflix series Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt

Last Updated on August 2, 2021

Netflix has released the first trailer for its new comedy series, Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt. I’ve been looking forward to a look at the project since it was announced as I am a big fan of its creator Tina Fey and the folks behind 30 Rock. The show features Ellie Kemper as Kimmy, who escapes a doomsday cult and decides to reclaim her life and start over in New York City.

Watch the first trailer and tell us what you think!

I’m getting a BLAST FROM THE PAST vibe, which sadly, I can’t say excites me. There will certainly be enough material here for Netflix to carry the show for a few binge-worthy seasons if they decide they want more. In the show Kimmy finds a job working for 30 Rock's Jane Krakowski, a new roommate Tituss Burgess also from 30 Rock. It’s as though Fey wanted to use a winning formula again, I can appreciate that.

The whole show will appear on Netflix on Friday, March 6, and it's already been renewed for a second season.
