the thing about the internet thing: while yes, a series of unfortunate events does take place in an undefined time period that has both horse drawn carriages and motorcycles, daniel handler always made sure there were no computers because he wanted the children to learn, and do research from, books
like this was really important to the books, that the answers weren’t just a click away, why do you think there were so many different libraries in the books, like, i dont think this will ruin the tv show but i dont think it was a smart choice
Smart kind people like the Baudelaire’s read books. Greedy, evil people like Count Olaf but crappy clocks off the internet.
Clearly this makes the message stronger.
