A Series of Unfortunate Events and The 100 Renewed

Lemony Snicket’s A Series of Unfortunate Events and The 100 have each been renewed for additional seasons. Lemony Snicket’s A Series of Unfortunate Events was renewed for Season 2 by Netflix. The 100 was renewed for Season 5 by The CW.

The renewal of Lemony Snicket’s A Series of Unfortunate Events was announced in a rather humorous way. On www.VastlyFrighteningDecision.com, Lemony Snicket lambasts the regular and binge viewers of the first season for watching the internet TV drama.

Lemony Snicket’s A Series of Unfortunate Events‘ plot synopsis: “Based on the internationally best-selling series of books by Lemony Snicket (aka Daniel Handler) and 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 guardian Count Olaf will stop at nothing to get his hands on their inheritance. The siblings must outsmart Olaf at every turn, foiling his many devious plans and disguises, in order to discover clues to their parents’ mysterious death.”

The other stars, characters, and producers of Season 1 of Lemony Snicket’s A Series of Unfortunate Events:

The eight-episode series is a Netflix original production, executive produced by Emmy Award winner Barry Sonnenfeld and Daniel Handler, and also stars Patrick Warburton (Lemony Snicket), Joan Cusack (Justice Strauss), Malina Weissman (Violet Baudelaire), Louis Hynes (Klaus Baudelaire), Presley Smith (Sunny) Alfre Woodard (Aunt Josephine), Catherine O’Hara (Dr. Orwell), K. Todd Freeman (Mr. Poe), Aasif Maandvi (Uncle Monty), and Don Johnson (Sir).

The 100: Season 5 will premiere during the 2017-2018 mid-season. There is no word yet on the primary challenge that the characters will face during Season 5. It will surely have to do with radiation, food, and water. Even if the remaining population of the Ark is able to turn everyone into Night Bloods, they still have to eat and drink. The Night Blood serum will make it possible for people to survive eating and drinking irradiated food and water but what animals and plants can survive such devastation?

Plants and animals previously survived nuclear weapons explosions on Earth. That and fallout were two things. A wave of burning destruction is something else.

On the plot of Season 4 of The 100:

Based on the book series by Kass Morgan, Clarke has just learned the human race is doomed to face an unbeatable enemy. Alie was telling the truth. The remaining nuclear reactors on Earth are melting and will set the atmosphere on fire. Can our heroes find hope knowing the end is inevitable? Will they spend their remaining days trying to survive? Or will they use their limited time to finally live? The stakes have never been higher, alliances are breaking, and the world is about to collapse. Civility has no place at the end of the world and there’s no telling what lengths our heroes can and will go to in order to survive.

The stars and characters of Season 4 of The 100:

The 100 stars Eliza Taylor as Clarke, Paige Turco as Dr. Abby Griffin, Bob Morley as Bellamy, Marie Avgeropoulos as Octavia, Devon Bostick as Jasper, Lindsey Morgan as Raven, Ricky Whittle as Lincoln, Christopher Larkin as Monty, Richard Harmon as Murphy, with Isaiah Washington as Chancellor Jaha and Henry Ian Cusick as Marcus Kane.
