Netflix's 'A Series of Unfortunate Events' to End With Season 3
Netflix's "A Series of Unfortunate Events" intends to be as faithful to the original novel as possible, so the popular TV series will finally end with season 3. In a recent interview, star Neil Patrick Harris confirmed the end of the series after season 3, saying they're keeping the structure of the book on which the Netflix series is based.
Harris, who plays Count Olaf in the series, said: "We're three seasons all in. We've intentionally been very truthful and factual and loyal to the books. We've added a few characters that aren't in the books, we've added some songs that you probably couldn't put into the books, but for the most part we're sticking to the structure of what already worked."
"A Series of Unfortunate Events" season 1 covered the first four of Lemony Snicket's 13 Baudelaire books — "The Bad Beginning," "The Reptile Room," "The Wide Window" and "The Miserable Mill." Because of that, fans assumed that three seasons would be enough to cover the entire series, which basically follows the misadventures of the Baudelaire orphans Violet, Klaus and Sunny.
