‘Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt’ Season 3 Teaser & Premiere Date: Titus Does His Best Beyoncé Impression
Netflix announced a whole bunch ofupcomingreleasedateslast week, but leave it to Titus Andromedon to be fashionably late. On the bright side, this means he gets to capitalize on the renewed buzz surrounding Beyoncé’sLemonadefollowing her showstopping performance at the Grammys last night — because, naturally, the firstUnbreakable Kimmy Schmidtseason 3 teaser has him doing his very best knockoff rendition of “Hold Up.”
Watch the first officialUnbreakable Kimmy Schmidtseason 3 teaser, which also reveals theUnbreakable Kimmy Schmidtseason 3 premiere date, below.
Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt Season 3 Teaser
In retrospect, it was probably inevitable thatUnbreakable Kimmy Schmidtwould attempt to put its own spin onLemonade. And based on this first season 3 teaser, it looks pretty good! ComposerJeff Richmondand the rest of theKimmy Schmidtteam have always been really, really good at riffing on popular songs and musical styles. Season 2 featured one episode jam-packed with fake Broadway numbers (e.g., “A Glorious Morning” fromAlabama!, the black version ofOklahoma!) and another one soundtracked by soundalike pop singles (i.e., theNow That Sounds Like Music!compilation album). They’re close enough that you couldalmostmistake them for the real thing, but get funnier and weirder the more closely you listen. I can’t wait to find out what they’ve done withLemonade. Titus might finally have a song that gives “Peeno Noir” a run for its money.
… Who are we kidding. Nothing’s ever going to beat “Peeno Noir.”
As you can see above,Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidtseason 3 premieresMay 19.
Ellie Kemper stars as Kimmy Schmidt, a woman who escapes from a doomsday cult and starts life over in New York. Armed with just a backpack, light-up sneakers, and a couple of way-past-due library books, she’s ready to take on a world she didn’t even think existed anymore. Wide-eyed but resilient, nothing is going to stand in her way.
