Years before the events of the series, they [[TheCorrupter manipulated a vulnerable Olaf]] into becoming the arson-loving madman he is today so he can accomplish their goals. Years later, they would burn down V.F.D. Headquarters to prevent anyone from learning its secrets and to eliminate a potential survivor of a recent fire. After [[EstablishingCharacterMoment making an introduction]] by attempting to kill Kit Snicket and steal the Sugar Bowl from her, they would proceed to [[KickTheDog murder the Circus Freaks]] just so to see if Olaf would care. After criticizing Olaf for his antics and failures, they would then order him to [[IfYoureSoEvilEatThisKitten throw Sunny Baudelaire off of a cliff just to prove his villainy]]. They would then proceed to kidnap a group of Snow Scouts so they can force them to work for them and steal their fortunes, while also killing their parents by burning down their homes in a city-wide fire. They would later appear at Olaf and the Baudelaires' trial as judges where they try to have the Baudelaires declared guilty and have them arrested for the murder of Dewey Denouement. A pair of cruel, emotionally abusive arsonists whose [[TheDreaded aura of menace frightens even Olaf himself]], The Man with A Beard but No Hair, and The Woman with Hair but No Beard played a major role in Count Olaf's descent to villainy.

Added DiffLines:
* ImprovedSecondAttempt:
** A common criticism leveled at the book series is that the sheer amount of misery makes it a case of TooBleakStoppedCaring and some readers plain give up on it. While the show didn't completely escape accusations of this from some, others praised it for being whimsical/outlandish enough not to go too far with it.
** The first four books are extremely episodic, with the hints of a broader developing story only beginning in the fifth. The show integrates the VFD plot right from the start and the four stories are tied together much more tightly.
** Aunt Josephine was more or less considered a selfish character in ''The Wide Window'' due to her willingness to [[spoiler:give the kids to Count Olaf to save herself]]. In the series, however, [[spoiler:she stands up to Count Olaf and rips him a new one in a misguided way]], a far cry from her book counterpart.
** The series does away with the bit in "The Ersatz Elevator" that many fans found too horribly contrived even for this series, where Violet and Klaus actively stop the Quagmires from explaining the entire VFD mystery and then find them gone before they can follow up on it.
** Some people found the Henchperson of Indeterminate Gender in the book to be offensive when combined with FatBastard. The show reworks the Henchperson as a lethargic {{Cloudcuckoolander}} with several HiddenDepths, who was much better received by audiences.
** The show gives a much more believable but remaining misinformed reason for the villagers to believe that the Baudelaires are murderers. In the original book, Olaf gives rather flimsy evidence for the orphans being at the scene of the crime, despite them having solid alibis. In the TV series, however, the orphans use an invention to try and break Jacques, who was mistaken for Count Olaf, out of the jail cell. This gives Olaf a stronger case because not only were the orphans breaking the village's strict rules about technology, but it also made it look like they were trying to break into the cell to kill ''Count Olaf''.
** Season 3 also greatly tones down the Baudelaires' BlackAndWhiteInsanity, as many book fans had grown increasingly irritated at their acting like any action with the slightest hint of moral ambiguity instantly made them as bad as Olaf. It ends up going with a more nuanced view that there are no truly completely good ''or'' bad people in the world.
** The show removes the part in "The Slippery Slope" where the Baudelaires deliberately release the villain they just took hostage, an action which seemed a bit naive considering the circumstances.
** "The End" was criticized by some for leaving the fates of many characters vague and bleak. [[spoiler:The adaptation gives a more optimistic conclusion: Quigley is reunited with his siblings, Fernald and Fiona are reunited and have finally located their father, Count Olaf's henchpeople start their own acting troupe, the Incredibly Deadly Viper is strongly implied to have successfully reached Ishmael's boat to deliver the life-saving apple, and the Baudelaires take off on their boat and are implied to have gone on many more adventures with Beatrice the Second.]]
** The show finally goes into detail about Count Olaf's backstory, something that was only hinted at in the books.
** Kit's [[spoiler:death by poison when she refused the apple cure]] was widely panned as contrived and based on science that had been discredited by the time of The End's release. In the show, Kit ''does'' take the cure she needs... [[spoiler:but it only delays her symptoms long enough to give birth.]]
