Remember those children’s books, with all the doom and gloom and big words and the author with the funny name? Well, Netflix revealed yesterday that it’s planning to adapt the Lemony Snicket novels into a live-action TV show.

It’s the streaming service’s first foray into a family friendly live-action show – Netflix has previously had success with its original shows House of Cards and Orange is the New Black.
