A Series of Unfortunate Events Season 3 teaser trailer & release date looms

Last Updated on July 30, 2021

Dear readers, I implore you to look away from this announcement for the third and final season of Netflix's LEMONY SNICKET'S A SERIES OF UNFORTUNATE EVENTS. You think I'm joking, but I'm not. What you're about to witness, should you choose not to heed my warning, is a teaser trailer filled with dangerous villains, haunted locales, cumbersome conundrums, near death experiences, raging fires, a runaway train, and more close calls than you can fathom. Seriously, you're better off watching videos of adorable kittens on YouTube than continuing to read this article. No one will blame you if you leave. In fact, it could be the smartest move you've ever made. Don't say I didn't warn you.

For those of you who're foolish enough to have stuck around, Netflix unveiled a teaser trailer for the upcoming and final season of LEMONY SNICKET'S A SERIES OF UNFORTUNATE EVENTS, alongside the installment's official release date. Set to hit the streaming giant on January 1, 2019, the new trailer features both Neil Patrick Harris' odious Count Olaf and Patrick Warburton's Lemony Snicket issuing words of warning for those demented enough to tune in for yet another adventure featuring the Baudelaire orphans (Malina Weissman as Violet, Louis Hynes as Klaus, and Presley Smith as Sunny).

Here's the official synopsis for LEMONY SNICKET'S A SERIES OF UNFORTUNATE EVENTS Season 3:

Based on the internationally best-selling series of books by Lemony Snicket (aka Daniel Handler), the third and final season of the Peabody award-winning Netflix original premieres worldwide January 1, 2019. Starring Emmy and Tony Award-winner Neil Patrick Harris, A Series of Unfortunate Events recounts the tragic tale of the Baudelaire orphans – Violet, Klaus, and Sunny – whose evil uncle Count Olaf (Harris) will stop at nothing to get his hands on their inheritance. After foiling his many dastardly plans and disguises, the young siblings might finally discover the truth about their parents’ mysterious death, while unraveling the layers of a clandestine organization, and revealing the secrets of the coveted, missing sugar bowl.

As always, the unfortunate events of this whimsical show are something that I can't bring myself to look away from. As a major fan of Handler's young adult novel series, I think this show has done an exemplary job of bringing the bizarre tale of the Baudelaire children to life on the small screen. With room to breathe and explore the dark and dangerous world of Snicket's Unfotunate universe, the show gives me that THE ADDAMS FAMILY flavor with a Tim Burton twist that I find both magical and mesmerizing.

What lies in wait for the orphans this time around, I know not, but I simply can't wait to find out when LEMONY SNICKET'S A SERIES OF UNFORTUNATE EVENTS arrives on Netflix come January 1, 2019.

You've been warned.
