I have read all the Nancy Drew books growing up, played all the video games, etc. Nancy Drew is easily one of my favorite icons of all time and as such I was beyond excited for this show to release. If it wasn’t supposed to be Nancy Drew, it would be a great stand alone show. Would have been a great idea. But slapping the Nancy Drew theme to sell a completely different story... that’s just disrespectful. But let’s go through the list of things they changed:
-Nancy and Ned are supposed to be in a long term committed relationship. Not booty calls.
-Also, it’s Nick in the show instead of Ned.
- Bess And George are supposed to be cousins.
- Nancy has been best friends with Bess and George for YEARS.
- Nancy doesn’t believe in ghosts. She figures out where they come from.
- Daddy Carson Drew is supposed to be moral compass.
- Hannah.. THEY COMPLETELY FORGOT HANNAH.
- why not River Heights?? What was wrong with that setting?
- also, Nancy and Ned aren’t criminals?? None of them are criminals? They solve the crimes not commit the crimes.
