The wait for Tina Fey and Robert Carlock’s NBC-turned-Netflix show Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt is almost over, and today the streaming network dropped the very first trailer, which features Ellie Kemper as a doomsday cult member-turned-New Yorker who is joined by 30 Rock alums Jane Krakowski and Tituss Burgess. All 13 episodes debut on Netflix March 6th; here’s what Tina Fey said at TCA about re-editing the first season with streaming in mind:
The back half of these 13, we’ve edited them with Netflix in mind. At the very least, to not be writing toward commercial breaks and editing down to rigid network timing—a half hour [slot] on network is 21 minutes and 15 seconds [of content]. And so we’d be able to put back some jokes that were cut solely to get to that timing. That said, the tone of the show is sort of set, because it was written for network. So I don’t think it’s going to take a graphic sexual turn in season 2.
