Playing catch up over the next few days with the show-notes/commentary. Not a lot for this one honestly. We both really like this series, and we both have not read any of the books. At this point I'm not inclined to read them until the series has ended so I am not spoiled by the ending. We have some theories how it's going to end, and thus, no real "Insane Fan Theories" on this episode. I love how as the series progress it dives deeper and deeper into Absurdism. The fact that the secret society are Volunteer Fire Department brings me no end of joy. The significant meaning given to mundane things is a nice subversion of theme to these sorts of stories. Also love the bit of meta that Neil Patrick Harris brings to the character of Count Olaf. I may be in the minority, but I also love the musical numbers. 

What can we say other than watch the show, then listen to the episode of the podcast.

Man! What I can I say about this series that we didn't already talk about in the podcast? Not a lot honestly. I'm very excited for season 2. In fact here's the trailer for season 2 and it looks amazing.  

Until season 2 releases we really don't have much more to talk about. Neither John or myself have read the books, but we both love the series. Listen to the episode to hear all our thoughts, but know that if you haven't seen season 1 yet, we have no compunction about spoiling the plot.

*We want to acknowledge that we did get the sequence of events wrong in our summary for episode 6 of the series. The kids do go to the restaurant with Mr. Poe and Count Olaf before they discover the code and go to rescue Aunt Josephine.
