Very much in that style, also Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt. I also unironically listen to the songs on Spotify because they are bops

The lead actress is actually a popular song writer, I believe.

Yeah, she was also in an episode of Community, but I’m not sure it counts as it’s the fourth season.

she is a huge songwriter

Do you remember the song that was annoying popular in like 2008? Gravity? "I'm not gonna write you a love song!"

She wrote/sang that

She also did the musical Waitress

100% same style of humor.

So much so that It, great news, kimmy, & 30 rock all can kinda be in the same universe and I wouldn't really think twice.

100%. It’s that Tina Fey style, 1 joke per 15 seconds of screen time pace. It’s hilarious. And the music is catchy as hell.

Yeah. If you like the Kimmy Schmidt and late 30 Rock vibe, you’ll dig.

Very similar in tone, but the fact that it's rated TV-MA makes some scenes surprising
