Produced by Tina Fey, the creator of 30 Rock, and starring
Ellie Kemper from The Office, the show's plot covers Kemper's character as she
emerges from a cult and learns the world has moved on without her.
Variety magazine expressed some concerns about the timing
and quality of this new release:
While “Kimmy” should benefit from having a celebrity
producer to help promote it, the prevailing sense is the streaming service was
bamboozled into taking a property about which NBC harbored understandable
concerns regarding its broader appeal. (The show would actually be more
compatible with “The Last Man on Earth,” an upcoming Fox comedy with a
post-apocalyptic theme, than with anything on the network’s current lineup.)
Sample, binge, or don't bother. Your choice.
