Throwback Thursday: Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt Season 2

Season 2... I had kind of underestimated. I know I probably gave it a positive review when I first reviewed it last year... but I didn't ever watch it a second time... until just now... and idk. I wasn't super happy with how Titus's story ended at the time... so I think I just thought I didn't love Season 2... but it was a really really good and funny season.

In Season 2... we see a lot of the more serious themes of Kimmy's life. Her abandonment issues from her mom and not just her fear of things from The Bunker. Kimmy finally sees a therapist... and even her therapist has issues... nothing seems to be going right for Kimmy and in the end she finds her mom... and things still aren't all that great. So Kimmy realizes her issues will kind of never be solved... but she still kind of accepts things and there's some catharsis in the end for Kimmy and her mom... without there being a real resolution.

And... I love Lisa Kudrow as Kimmy's mom. I thought she was just perfect and so funny... she seems to be on a lot of Netflix shows- she was on Season 2 of Bojack Horseman... I think she's just as funny now as she was when she was on friends... and that's saying a lot because Phoebe is probably my favorite part of Friends. Lol.

And Tina Fey on this season as the Therapist... she was just really great. She is so funny... this show was no exception to that at all... she was great at playing both the boring therapist that runs marathons and the train wreck alcoholic that can't get her life together... I was hoping we would see a little bit more of her in Season 3... but I was happy with her episode there and where Andrea ended up.

I loved the cliffhanger end of this season as well... because it's like just when you think we've got all the Bunker stuff behind us... the Reverend calls asking for a divorce... and that leads to some more issues in season 3...

I think one of my favorite episodes was when Kimmy goes on the tv show... that sounds like it would be horrifying and I always love seeing the difference between Kimmy and the other women in the bunker... that was a great episode highlighting that.

And I liked the story with Titus and Mikey... I appreciated it more after watching Season 3... I don't know if I loved it at the time... but now after seeing season 3... it's so sweet. They're so cute... and I just really liked it.

Lots of love in this season. Kimmy and Dong, Titus and Mikey, Jacqueline and Russ, Lilian and Robert Durst... it's just really got a lot as far as those stories go... and I think it works really well. It was really good.

Ao that's everything! Hope you guys like it or find it useful. Let me know what you think of Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt's different seasons and if you liked the third season... and yeah!

Byeee!

Scribbles about TV: Jane The Virgin Review!

This I think is a surprise hit, so of corse I needed to watch it for myself to see! It's been getting a lot of critical buzz because it has been reviewed as "one of the best pilots of the season" and I also have been hearing a few critics saying that they don't think it will last because the word "virgin" is in the title... which is stupid. There is nothing wrong with being a virgin and if a show is good, its good and people should watch it... plus this did bring pretty high ratings for The CW so the critics that said that can suck it! Lol. Overall I really liked this show. One thing thats been bothering me a lot about the new Fall shows is that the characters aren't interesting enough. Especially the female characters. I thought that this showed a lot of really strong female characters that were interesting. This had a pretty big cast with A LOT of stuff going on for a pilot and most of the characters were female. That is a powerful thing to see on TV...

Scribbles About TV: Jane The Virgin Finale Review (SPOILERS)

So.... Can we talk about all the twists because there were a lot! I didn't even see all of them coming! Alrighty we start out in typical Jane The Virgin Mode with Jane's choice between Raphael and Michael... I'd be okay with either but I think I'm team Michael. Jane has a weird moment with Raphael and thinks she's better off without him and just having him be the father of her child. She's also starting to have some feelings for Michael again. Then she almost has the baby on the bus and some woman helps her and gets the bus driver to take her to the hospital. Rogellio and Xo are in Vegas and they get drunk and can't remember what happens, but they make it just in time to see Jane deliver a baby boy. I knew it would be a boy! Lets pause on that a little and go to Michael and his ex partner/friend with benefits who comes back says she has a lead on Sin Rostro, gives him an address where the plastic surgeon is and by the time Michael gets there, he's de...

Top 10 Dating Tips/ Suggestions

So I've been in a relationship for about 2 and a half years... but before that I was single... for a very long time. And I was on dating apps for about a year or so before that... so here's what I learned from those apps. If you want more specific relationship advice I have from being in a relationship... that one might be a little harder but I guess I could do a blog on that too? Idk... I'm not an expert but I think I have some good tips.  Find an App That Works For You  I feel like not all apps work for everyone. I started on Bumble- and I like the app. I love the idea of girls taking the first move- but... I HATE making the first move apparently. So I would just match with a bunch of guys... and never really knew what to talk about. Plus I like having A LOT of info in my bio and Bumble just doesn't give enough space for me. I only went out with 1 guy from Bumble I think and it was bad.  So after that I tried Coffee Meets Bagel... which is terrible. Maybe depending on...
