A SERIES OF UNFORTUNATE EVENTS’ New Trailer Can’t Keep Us From Watching

If, like they keep on telling us, Netflix really doesn’t want us to watch their new series, Lemony Snicket’s A Series of Unfortunate Events, they should probably stop releasing trailers for the show that that make it look so good. That’s because even though they have once again warned us that this is a story that “has no happy ending, no happy beginning, and very few happy things in the middle,” each new sneak peek brings us nothing but excitement and joy.

This week the streaming site released the second full trailer for their upcoming original series based on the iconic children’s books, and just like the first one it is full of bleak and wonderful surreal settings and landscapes. And while there are still plenty of look at the many disguises (and knives) used by the evil Count Olaf (played by Neil Patrick Harris, who already seems like the perfect actor for the role), this trailer focuses more on the relationship between the orphaned Baudelaire children and their need to stick together to outsmart their strange guardian who is trying to steal their inheritance.

Yup, that was Flight of the ConchordsRhys Darby you saw pop up there. Who better to organize a kids meeting?

The eight-episode first season will be available on Netflix next month, on January 13th, and despite the warnings we can’t wait to watch them all. Because not only do we not need a happy ending, or a happy beginning, or even any happy middle parts to enjoy it, that’s what we’re count Olaf-ing on.

What are you most looking forward to with this newest adaptation? It would be most unfortunate if you didn’t share your thoughts with us in the comments below.
