"The Last Man on Earth" series premiere The title of this off-kilter comedy is pretty self-descriptive: Will Forte is a guy who has to find ways to amuse himself after a very sanitary apocalypse wipes out everyone else on the planet. Well, almost everyone. 9 p.m. Sunday on Fox29. Assumes its regular time slot (9:30 p.m.) the following week.

"The Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt" series premiere You know how they say, "Unless you've been living under a rock . . ."

All 13 episodes available to stream Friday on Netflix.
