6 Reasons to Get Excited About Season 3 of 'Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt"

Back in 2014 the Netflix original series "Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt" debuted and was instantly a comedy sensation. Starring Ellie Kemper ("The Office" and "Bridesmaids") alongside Tituss Burgess, Jane Krakowski, and Carol Kane, the show follows Kemper's character, Kimmy, as she learns about the world around her. Why would she have to learn you ask? Well she was held captive by a crazy "Reverend" (Jon Hamm) in a bunker for years, so all of her knowledge about the world is at a fourteen year-old's level. Mix this in with a few other outlandish situations and you've got yourself plenty of laughs. In honor of the third season premiere on May 19, here are a few reasons to get excited for the return of Kimmy and her friends.

1. Kimmy's unique vocabulary.

If being held captive means one thing, it means not being up to date with the latest phrases and lingo. But maybe not knowing what hashtag means is a good thing? Well either way, this example of peculiar word choice is part of this red head's charm.

2. The show's ability to point out flaws with society.

One might easily ask, what the heck Jacqueline is doing by throwing away full water bottles, but the message is clear, that we as a society waste too much. The lack of care for the environment is also a clear dig at the 1%, who have no worry of obtaining clean water.

3. The way that Kimmy owns up to her strange ways.

The thing about Kimmy is, that although she is trying to lead a normal life, she knows that she isn't ever going to be normal. Unfortunately for her, she doesn't seem to realize that everyone around her is weird in their own way, but the fact that she can admit that she's weird puts her a step above her peers.

4. Because Titus speaks French.

If you can take, "bye, Felicia," to a whole other level, then you earn some trust solely on your ability to be creative. In Titus' case, creativity flows at all moments of the day, especially when it involves Barbie dolls or pinot noir.

5. The masterpiece that is "Peeno Noir".

Titus' infamous song may have been a part of the first season, but there have been plenty of goodies like this sprinkled throughout the series. From musical numbers to cartoon segments, this show never fails to entertain.

6. If Kimmy can adapt than so can we.

Because most of us haven't been held captive in a bunker for fifteen years then we should have no problem taking on challenges that life has to throw at us.

18 Things I Want To Do Now That I'm 18

I'm technically an adult, so I'm legally required to live a little, right?

For the entirety of my high school career, I was always seen as the goody-two-shoes. I never got in trouble with a teacher, I kept stellar grades, and when I wasn't doing extracurricular activities, I was at home studying. Even when I did go out, it was usually with a bunch of fellow band geeks. The night would end before 11:00 PM and the only controversial activity would be a fight based on who unfairly won a round of Apples-to-Apples when someone else clearly had a better card (I promise I'm not still holding a grudge).

Now that I'm officially an adult, I want to pursue some new things. I want to experience life in a way that I never allowed myself to do prior to entering college. These are the years that I'm supposed to embark on a journey of self-discovery, so what better way to do that than to create a bucket list?

So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.
