Effervescent Kimmy (Ellie Kemper) starts season 3 of beloved off-the-wall comedy Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt by celebrating her GED graduation and looking forward to college — until she receives divorce papers from her kidnapper. She’s frustrated by the reminder of her tragic upbringing, but fans will rejoice in the return of the Reverend (a demented Jon Hamm) via prison phone calls. Meanwhile, Kimmy’s supporting band of narcissists — virtuosos Jane Krakowski, Tituss Burgess and Carol Kane — continue to shine as they strive for self-improvement. FROM PEN: Dear White People Handles the Transition from Movie to TV Beautifully But this new batch of episodes is most worth watching for guest stars including Laura Dern and Amy Sedaris — well, and Burgess channeling a bat-wielding Beyoncé from Lemonade. Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt season 3 hits Netflix on Friday.
