The man-cave of the Reverend was so cliche and having Jon Hamm play this macho wannabe was a priceless shout-out to Mad Men. I just adore Tina Fey.drnanamomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03667806039402426676noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13727952.post-65319558103316366982015-04-19T18:21:59.645-04:002015-04-19T18:21:59.645-04:00Great, now I have the theme tune stuck in my head ...Great, now I have the theme tune stuck in my head again.

It's genuinely one of the best sitcoms I've ever seen, and that's thanks to Netflix. It would have suffered both creatively and commercially on network television.<br /><br />Also, loved the theme song!

I generally liked the early to middle episodes better than the later ones. The trial episodes were a bit too off-the-wall for me. I'm not sure if that makes sense, given the bizarreness of the entire premise, but something about the satire, hijinks, and absurdity of the trial just wasn't enjoyable for me (even though the actor playing the Reverend was very committed to the insanity). I much preferred Kimmy adjusting to life and showing her new friends how to be unbreakable in their own ways. Ah, comedy. So subjective. :)<br /><br />On that note: I loved the theme song. It was ridiculously catchy, and was constantly stuck in my head for the couple weeks I spent watching the show.

It's sunshine in twenty five minute increments. Kimmy has been through the worst life has to offer but still looks at life and sees wonder and possibility.<br /><br />As life affirming and darling as the first few episodes are (I'm having candy for dinner!), my favorites are probably the last ones that feature the trial of Kimmy's captor, in part because of that character but mostly because of the case's prosecutors.sunbunnyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08553429350476841139noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13727952.post-75122421359252627262015-04-19T01:38:12.037-04:002015-04-19T01:38:12.037-04:00This show is delightful.

I'm feeling better now. :)<br /><br />Seriously, this show is one of a kind.Lamounierhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00225447169375363236noreply@blogger.com
