![]() ![]() In which case, you’ll love A Series of Unfortunate Events! Well, looks like you’re brave and rebellious, and hence not the sort to “look away” from unfortunate misfortunes. Netflix even sent out a warning to Harris’ fans, that’s how bad Olaf is! If you grew up crushing on Neil Patrick Harris (NPH) as Doogie Howser and then fell for his oversexed charm as Barney Stinson, beware, because as Count Olaf, he’s the unequivocally monstrous antihero of our series. These are, A Series of Unfortunate Events, Netflix’s brand new take on the Lemony Snicket classic book series of the same name. This is, after all, the Baudelaires’ story a children’s story unlike any other - there are no happy family reunions here, no pleasant outcomes, no warm beds and no caring adults. ![]() “Look away, look away, look away” - as Neil Patrick Harris’ creepily nasal voice drones on through the opening credits, each episode’s theme bringing us up-to-date with the Baudelaire kids and their continuing misfortunes, they perfectly echo Lemony Snicket’s persistent warnings to readers of the original book series - “If you are interested in stories with happy endings, you would be better off reading some other book.” ![]()
