- Abstract
The article offers criticism of the television show "Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt," directed by Tina Fey and Robert Carlock, starring Ellie Kemper. The role of the character Kimmy Schmidt as a nanny in the show is addressed. Topics include the notion of postfeminist popular culture in relation to work-life balance, the gendered nature of care work, and the portrayal of the marriage of the character Jacqueline.
