Looking for a cute comedy or an action-packed drama to watch during the spring season? Well, I have just what the doctor ordered. Season two of Netflix Original's Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt and Daredevil return on April 15th (Kimmy Schmidt) and March 18th (Daredevil). Each series is completely different but both equally lovable.
Kimmy Schmidt is a comedy about a 29 year-old who was stuck in a bunker for the majority of her life, then is released, and makes her way to New York to start a whole new life for herself. It's just a wacky, cute comedy with very dramatic and diverse characters. Then there is the theme song. In my opinion when it comes to that show, the theme song is the best part. It is the chatchiest thing ever. It perfectly explains what the show is about, auto-tuned to perfection, in all of about 30 seconds. Kimmy Schmidt is a funny take on a very serious and real topic of kidnapping. I plan on watching the movie Room, also about kidnapping, and it told a very different. In both scenarios both protagonists survive. The difference is in Kimmy Schmidt, it's very dramatic and fantasized, while in Room, it tells the very real story of a very plausible kidnapping story and the ways it impacts a mother and her child.
On the dramatic note, Daredevil is about a blind superhero who, you guessed it, fights crime. But he is also a lawyer, part of the Nelson and Murdock Law Office. During the first season we meet Matt Murdock (Daredevil) and his closest friends, acquaintances, and new people he meets. Plus you get to see a blind man (with a cloth tied over his eyes for dramatic effect) kick some serious butt (oh how I wish to use a different word here). What more could you want? Marvel lovers are in for a treat with this one, but then again if you were a true Marvel lover you would've watched it when it came out last year in April. Either way you get a look into Hell's Kitchen, taking place after the first Avengers movie, where Matt Murdock is trying to pick up the pieces of his city and protect it from the evil it faces. The best part about Daredevil, for me anyway, is the part at the very end of the first season when Daredevil finally gets his own costume and it's like a weight lifted off your shoulders.
