I fall in love with Nancy Drew when I watched the movie Nancy Drew and the hidden Staircase. I always loved detective series and I have some similar expectations from this show. There's gonna be heavy spoilers ahead. If you haven't watched it yet, trust me, you'll gonna love it.
Just like every other mystery genre series and movies, I, too, thought that Nancy might be drugged the whole time and she's having hallucinations and damn when this ghosts turned out to be for real, I was like 'Whaaaattt! Ghosts in a detective series! '. I was little intimidated by it but I thought to accept it as a reality and let's proceed ahead. And that's when it start growing wonderful.
One more thing I liked about this show is that it started with rainy season, followed by summer and finally ended in winter. That's like living a year in a few days. The sets were amazingly designed to show the beauty of historical and rich mansions abandoned and I loved every scenes in the rain. It's just something personal to maybe but it felt like very pleasing to me.
One more thing was there I noticed when I watched around 3 or 4 episodes. I watched the name Stephanie Savage and Josh Swartz there and it clicked my mind suddenly about Runaways. And then I came to know why I liked it even better. It's because it's centred around teenagers, with there tensions and the characters were very similar to that in Runaways, leaving us feel however we want when Nancy and Nick broke up (similar to what happened between Chase and Alien girl in Runaways, sorry I forgot her name).
Plus, I loved the theme song and it was none other than Siddharth Khosla, who I adore for his theme song and Gert's lullaby in Runaways. And yeah, as soon I saw their name, I suspected Bess to be a lesbian, proving the similarity between their previous projects. And songs, man I loved them. I don't know how they come up with such songs. Absolutely loved it.
Thanks for reading, hope you liked how I felt about this show.
