I mainlined The Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt over the weekend. The first couple of episodes are kinda creaky, but then it hit the stride and made me laugh like the drain consistently. By the time the Peeno Noir song (youtube link) rolled around, I was a convert.
Oh man, that episode about Spirit Cycle! The surprise guest star in the finishing season arc! Everything that came out of Carol Kane's mouth! TITUS!

Right? Right. Hashbrown no filter.
Or that one time when Titus started dressing up in his werewolf costume all the time, because he was being treated more nicely as a werewolf than a black dude!
Oh God, the Robert Osborne cameo. "We had a deal!"
Titus instantly became my hero in like the second episode when he said "But I already did something today!"
I laughed for like 5 minutes straight when I found out Lillian's full name was "Lillian Kaushtupper."
Troll the respawn, Jeremy!
Wow, the end of episode 10 of Sense8 is extraordinary.
ISN'T IT.
ISN'T IT.
It's unlike anything I've ever seen, and it brought me to tears.
I have no poetry in my soul 'cause at the end of it, I was like, "surely we didn't need to see all 8 births." And I'm talking as someone who's actually seen several births.
The music was grand. Ehm, Beethoven, I think? One of the piano concertos. Too lazy to look up.
On a different note, I just started watching Catastrophe on Amazon streaming based on a rec from Pop Culture Happy Hour crew and I'm kinda in love with it. I've only watched 2 out of the total 6 episodes but God, it's fantastic, warm and witty and down-to-earth, despite the fact its premise is one that sends me running to the hills usually (accidental pregnancy.) I'm deliberately rationing myself because there are so few episodes in the season.
