10 Most Anticipated TV Shows Of 2017
2. A Series Of Unfortunate Events (Netflix)
The much-loved Lemony Snicket novels will be coming to TV in a Netflix original series. With the 2004 movie pretty much forgotten, producers are taking another stab at the timeless books, with an interesting cast, and a great production team. The talented, Emmy award-winning Neil Patrick Harris will be portraying the unpleasant Count Olaf, while Louis Hynes, Joan Cusack and Malina Weissman will be playing other characters. Executive producers include Emmy Award winner Barry Sonnenfeld and Daniel Handler.
The plot follows three orphaned children who are sent to live with their mean, grumpy relative, Olaf. While the initial story line sees Olaf trying to steal the children’s inheritance, the story progresses through the many thirteen books, and the children discover a secret society their parents and Olaf were very much connected to.
