THE NETFLIX VERSION OF ASOUE PROVIDED A CONCRETE ENDING TO AN OVERALL WELL-ADAPTED SERIES WHILE STILL REMAINING TRUE TO ITS SOURCE MATERIAL; NETFLIX RUINED THE MYSTERY AND AMBIGUITY THAT WAS PRESENT IN THE ORIGINAL BOOK SERIES AND ADDED UNNECESSARY AND CONFUSING REVEALS WITH ISMAEL AND THE SUGAR BOWL; THE POINT OF THE ADAPTATION WAS NOT TO RETELL THE STORY EXACTLY AS PRESENT IN THE BOOKS BUT TO SHOW LEMONY'S VERSION OF THE EVENTS AS DISCOVERED IN THE SHOW'S UNIVERSE; COUNT OLAF WAS NOT SUPPOSED TO HAVE A DRAMATIC DEATH, HE WAS SUPPOSED TO SLIP AWAY WITHOUT ACKNOWLEDGEMENT, WHICH IS JUST ONE EXAMPLE OF A TIME THE SHOW DIVERGED FROM THE ORIGINAL MESSAGE OF THE BOOKS AND THE WARNINGS IT PORTRAYS; WE WERE INCREDIBLY LUCKY TO HAVE AN ADAPTATION THAT STAYED TRUE TO THE SOURCE MATERIAL IN ALL THE IMPORTANT ASPECTS AND CHANGES SHOULD BE EXPECTED WHENEVER BOOKS ARE ADAPTED TO THE SCREEN AND GENERAL AUDIENCES
