Attention all Netflix binge-watchers: Netflix just announced 11 of their original series that are coming back and the dates that they're premiering. Having to wait one entire year for the series that we love to come back (probably after watching every episode in just a few days) is different from the excitement of watching a new episode every week like we do on TV. So, without further ado, here are the Netflix series that we love that are coming back and some new ones that we can start to fall in love with.
Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt
From executive producers Tina Fey and Robert Carlock, Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt follows the story of Kimmy, a woman held in a bunker for years, struggling to reintegrate herself into society. Add a new city, a musical-obsessed roommate, a teenage kid who really doesn't want a nanny and it's time to see just how unbreakable Kimmy really is. And that was just season 1. Season 2 premieres April 15, so get ready to delve back into Kimmy's adventures.
House Of Cards
House of Cards is entering into it's fourth season.

Rumors say that Claire might even run against her (ex)husband in the coming presidential elections. Season 4 premieres on March 4th.
Orange is the New Black
Ever since Piper and her fellow convicts at Litchfield Penitentiary hit Netflix in 2013, Orange is the New Black has taken the world by storm. Finding characters we love and then end up hating is what this show is all about, and season 4 is just going to heighten those feelings. This season is going to hold boatloads of new drama, some new characters and maybe some new insights into characters we already love, so mark June 17 on your calendars.
Grace and Frankie
This series follows Grace, a retired cosmetics mogul, and Frankie, a hippie art teacher, who are both married to successful divorce lawyers in San Diego. The series takes a spin when their husbands announce that they're in love with each other and are leaving their wives. After being hit with this news, the women who really never liked each other, are forced to live together and support one another as they try to maneuver this new part of their life. Season 2 is sure to bring more twists and turns for this unlikely pair of women, so tune in on May 6th.
