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!

Disney Store Closing Haul

So if you read my post from yesterday- you know that I love The Disney Store, but it is unfortunately closing. I did pick up some things from the store that I thought I'd share with you guys! I did get a couple of t shirts. One is a Star Wars shirt, which is technically a men's shirt but I thought it looked really cool and I don't like that Disney doesn't carry the same things for men and for women. For the most part they look unisex to me and a lot of their men's stuff has characters I like better. Like the star wars shirt for women was grey with pink lettering and had no pictures, but the mens shirt had a really cool metallic silver logo on black clothing with pictures of all the new characters and Luke inside of the letters... much cooler! So I got that! The other shirt I got is really funny and it has Sleeping Beauty on it and it says "I Woke Up Like This." Which I really liked! Super cute and funny and my niece likes it when I wear shirts with c...

Scribbles About Life: 3.10.16

Soooo... I don't really want to post about my day... but I don't really want to post anything else either. I started writing something about female characters in movies and TV... but I just didn't like what I was writing and... idk... I was a blog writing machine this week and now I feel defeated. I wrote a ton on Monday and Tuesday and now I just don't feel like doing a post today... but I want to write still... So I'll talk about things that I guess are on my mind lately... Idk. So I got this Revlon Ultra HD Matte Lipcolor... and for some reason... I'm addicted to the way that it smells. Idk why, it smells like cherry medicine... but I also sort of like it. Its more cherry than medicine... and I can't smell it on my lips... but Idk. I keep smelling it in the tube. I got some cute stuff from American Eagle yesterday too! I got a dress and a romper... I do not own any Rompers... except this one... but it looked good on me and it didn't make me look f...

Throwback Thursday: 13 Going On 30

So I watched this on VH1 around Christmas Time because it was on... they really need to bring this movie to Netflix because it's pretty fantastic and VH1 doesn't get the whole thing. I didn't catch the very beginning... but I did watch most of it from around the time when Matty gives her the Dream House... so sweet. It was a little weird to watch this movie because when it came out, I was 13 or almost 13... and now I'm closer to being 30... but I still felt more connected to the 13 year old Jenna instead of the adults in the movie. Like I'm not totally sure when I turned almost 30... but I don't like it. I'm still 13 year old Jenna who likes the same music as when I was 13 and has kind of the same style as I did then... I don't know... its just kind of a weird thing and I was freaking out a little bit from it. This is also the movie that introduced me to one of my favorite actresses, Judy Greer! I love Judy Greer, she's so funny and great and s...
