“Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt” has been renewed for season 3 by Netflix.
The Universal TV comedy, exec produced by Tina Fey and Robert Carlock, stars Ellie Kemper as a woman who is reintroduced to the real world after years in a cult. The renewal was confirmed Sunday at the start of the show’s panel at the winter Television Critics Association press tour in Pasadena, Calif.
The second season bows April 15. In discussing the first two seasons, Fey noted that even though “Unbreakable” airs on a commercial-free Svod outlet, she and Carlock still write the show with act breaks.
“Unbreakable” was originally developed for NBC but moved to Netflix in 2014 with a two-season order. It’s been warmly received by critics and earned an Emmy nomination last year for best comedy series.
Fey said she loves working in the environment of Netflix with no pressure coming from a weekly ratings report card.
