Hi Peas! Has anyone watched this show yet? It is a Netflix original series. Was just wondering if there were any pea reviews?
The commercial looks cute.

My DD thought it was awesome. Big 30 Rock/Office/Tina Fey fan though.
I wish I could do Netflix! So many good things are happening with online video. It makes me want to stomp my feet and have a temper tantrum! Gaaa!!! Appreciate your unlimited internet connections - however crappy they may be! It is still better than having a capped amount.

I'd love to hear reviews as well. I watched all House of Cards season 3 last weekend, and the next season of Orange is the New Black doesn't come out until June, so I'm looking for something new to watch.

I watched four episodes yesterday. Honestly, I thought it was pretty awful.
There were a few laughs here and there. I might finish the season to see if it gets any better- I dknt have my hopes up for it though.
I love Tina Fey and I loved 30 Rock, but this one just missed the mark in my opinion. It's too bad.

I've been binge-watching this weekend and I like it I'm just about to watch the last episode You can definitly tell it is a Tina Fey-made show, it's a lot of the same humour that 30 Rock has. I have chuckled through the whole thing, which is rare for me, so I would recommend it. But keep in mind it's very fluffy and fun. It doesn't answer any big questions in life. But I didn't expect it too either.

I watched the first 3 epis and I think it's great. I like the 30 Rock style and the jokes come quick, you have to watch it twice to catch it all. Tiny Fey rocks! My dd16 wants to be Tina Fey when she grows up.

I haven't watched it yet, but everyone I know who has is raving about how great it is.

I binge watched the entire season already. I really liked it and am bummed there aren't more. But it's not for everyone. DH liked the pilot well enough, but not enough to keep watching. He didn't like 30 Rock, either, and I loved it. I think the entire premise could throw some people off.
Also, the theme song is totally stuck in my head and I love it.

I watched most of the first episode last night and can't wait to finish it later. I laughed and laughed.

It's not actually a Netflix original. It was developed for NBC and Netfix bought it after NBC decided not to put it on their schedule.
I watched the pilot, undecided if I will watch more.

I could never get into 30 Rock, but I'm enjoying this. (about 1/2 way through the series)

I watched it. As someone else said, it's cute, very fluffy. I liked it though. Lots of female (and general underdog) empowerment but definitely not in an overbearing way. I had a very long tedious task yesterday and had it on to pass the time, it's good for that. I'll watch the next season if there is one.
And yes that song is so catchy. I actually woke up singing it. It's my new theme song.

I watched it yesterday. I though it was cute and fun. Very lighthearted. It was a great lazy Sunday afternoon show.

I love it! I've been binge watching this week. Expect quirky characters and tongue in cheek humor. It's more 30 Rock than 30 Rock if that makes any sense at all. The main character is so darn likable.

I watched all but two episodes yesterday. The last one was the one with John Hamm. He is so ridiculously funny that I find it hard to believe he is the same guy who played Don Draper. I loved him when he was on 30 Rock too. This is a cute show and I'm glad I left a couple for today. Kimmy is adorable. I'll probably watch this one again.

I really did not like 30 Rock (wanted to, but could not). OTOH, I have really enjoyed Kimmy Schmidt. It's cute, silly, funny, and uplifting. Which is just what I need right now.
I laughed out loud at the scene with the rat in the first episode.

I enjoyed it. Hated the last couple of shows though. Thought they jumped the shark a bit. I am hoping that particular story line is finished next season might be better. If there is a next season.

The series received great reviews. My dd is watching and loves it. I'll start watching this week, but I think dh will not like it. Not his humor.

"Well, those bitches never learned any Spanish, so..." So far I am not totally certain but I've had a laugh here and there - watching it while I do housework

I started this yesterday and I've binged all but two episodes! I love this show so much. I know I've missed a ton of stuff because I'm laughing through jokes, I will watch it again soon! I think I may have to be Kimmy Schmidt for Halloween!
