A Series of Unfortunate Events. Season 1 (2017) TV-PG

Based on the first four books of the popular young adult book series by Lemony Snicket (aka Daniel Handler), A Series of Unfortunate Events follows the Beaudelaire orphans as they are shuffled from one guardian to the next after the death of their parents. Inventive Violet (Malina Weissman), bookish Klaus (Louis Hynes), and bitter Sunny (Presley Smith) must team up to stay alive and stay out of the clutches of the evil Count Olaf (Neil Patrick Harris), who is intent on stealing their fortune any way he can. Dryly narrated with witty wordplay and humor by Lemony Snicket (Patrick Warburton), this new series is cleverly written and beautifully shot, providing many heartwarming moments despite its depressing premise.
