The Most Inspiring Leading Ladies Of Netflix

Ellie Kemper in The Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt is hilarious, tenacious, and pretty kickass, if at times also unbearably naive. It's not her fault she's completely clueless, though — the premise of the show, after all, is that Ellie's character Kimmy spent 15 years in an underground cult! After being rescued, Kimmy makes the ballsy move to NYC — after which ensues her unlikely friendship with gay wannabe Broadway star Titus, along with many other shenanigans.
