You're going to want to clear your schedule on March 6. And then again on March 20. Why? Because that's when Netflix will debut your new obsessions! Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt bows first on March 6 with the new drama Bloodline following on March 20. Why should you care about these new shows? Well, for starters, when has Netflix let you down?

Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt stars Ellie Kemper as a young woman trying to make it big in New York City. She also just so happens to have recently escaped from a cult. Jane Krakowski, Carol Kane and Titus Burgess also star. Not enough for you? The show was created by Tina Fey and Robert Carlock. Yes, that Tina Fey. Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt was originally set to air on NBC, but Netflix swooped in and picked up the show and already ordered a second season.

"When the opportunity arose for Tina Fey and Robert Carlock to premiere their new show on Netflix with a two-season commitment, we decided this was the best possible scenario to launch this captivating new series," NBC's Robert Greenblatt said in a statement when the move was announced. "While it was originally developed for NBC, we have a very drama-heavy mid-season schedule so we're thrilled about this Netflix opportunity; it's an instant win-win for everyone, including Tina, Robert, and Universal Television. We're already talking to these extraordinary creators about new development for NBC, but meanwhile, everyone here from Universal Television will do everything possible to see that Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt becomes a long-running hit on Netflix."

On the drama side, Bloodline hails from the Damages creators Todd A. Kessler, Daniel Zelman and Glenn Kessler (KZK). The series follows a close-knit family of four adult siblings whose secrets are revealed when the black sheep of the family returns home. Friday Night Lights star Kyle Chandler headlines the cast that also includes Ben Mendelsohn, Sissy Spacek, Sam Shepard, Linda Cardellini, Norbert Leo Butz and Jacinda Barrett.

Netflix's first Marvel series, Daredevil, is set to bow on Friday, April 10, the company announced at the Television Critics Association 2015 winter press tour. The series stars Charlie Cox as the titular hero. Also announced today: Netflix's new comedy from Friends co-creator Marta Kaufman, Grace and Frankie starring Lily Tomlin and Jane Fonda, will premiere May 8. Marco Polo has also been renewed for a 10-episode second season. Your other Netflix favorite, House of Cards, returns Feb. 27.

Sounds like we're going to be busy couch potatoes.
