‘A Series of Unfortunate Events’ was right to change its finale from the books

The television adaptation of Lemony Snicket’s A Series of Unfortunate Events is, much like the books it is based on, true to its name. Most of the action and drama contained in it can be boiled down to a literal series of very unfortunate events that occur in the lives of its heroes, the Baudelaire orphans, as well as most of the people surrounding them.

The Netflix show aired its third and final season at the beginning of the new year, and its finale is surprisingly more optimistic than the books’ ambiguous ending. When the books were published, the fate of the Baudelaires and its overarching moral was left open-ended. The Netflix series ends with decades-old mysteries solved, backstories filled in, and a reunion so sweet it almost comes out of left field. Still, the story’s lessons on the great disappointments and gentle virtues of life were conveyed. Read more…

There’s never been a better time for ‘A Series of Unfortunate Events’

It’s been almost 20 years since the first book in Lemony Snicket’s A Series of Unfortunate Events; 14 years since the meandering movie adaptation, 12 since the books ended, and just over a year since the series premiered on Netflix.

And in that least year especially, things have changed drastically. Time seems to both drag and splinter in the Trump era (there’s a reason this winter feels as long as one out of Game of Thrones). The internet seeks solace in gallows humor and routine evisceration of those who got us in this mess – and oddly, it’s the perfect environment for A Series of Unfortunate Events Season 2. Read more…

A new ‘Series of Unfortunate Events’ trailer is here to ruin your day

A new season of A Series of Unfortunate Events is on its way to ruin spring before it starts. Season 2 of the twisted Netflix original sees the Baudelaire orpha ns (Malina Wassman, Louis Hynes, Presley Smith) learning more about their parents and the mysterious organization that still haunts them, as well as fleeing – as ever – from the nefarious Count Olaf (Neil Patrick Harris).

Like Season 1, the new season will span eight episodes and four of Lemony Snicket’s original books; this time, it’s The Austere Academy, The Ersatz Elevator, The Vile Village, and The Hostile Hospital. Featuring guest appearances from Lucy Punch, Tony Hale, Nathan Fillion, Robbie Amell, and more, the next chapter in the Baudelaire’s journey promises to be every bit as peculiar and – you guessed it – unfortunate as ever.
