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.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
