With the first half of its final season having arrived on Netflix this week, there has been a question as to when the final six episodes of Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt will air. The streaming service announced today that the second half of the season will premiere on January 25th, 2019.
Netflix announced a few weeks ago that the fourth season of Kimmy Schmidt would be its last. The announcement was sudden enough that there is talk of doing a movie-sized finale to wrap the series up, much like they are currently doing with Sense8. When or if a movie special will begin production is unknown at this point, however.
Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt was created by Saturday Night Live and 30 Rock veteran Tina Fey and stars Ellie Kemper, Tituss Burgess, Jane Krakowski and Carol Kane.
The season finds the optimistic Kimmy starting a new career as HR manager of the startup Giztoob, but it’s more than she bargained for when her boss tells her she has to fire someone and she unintentionally gets tangled in a #MeToo situation. Also, Jacqueline builds her talent agency empire, but for the moment has only one client (Titus). And between creating and starring in a new (fake) TV show and directing his first middle school play, Titus’s own career begins to take off. All the while, Lillian continues to do whatever it takes to “disrupt” and “burst the paradigm.”
