Nancy Drew

The majority of the bad reviews are from people who either haven't finished the first episode, or didn't go further than the first. Do yourself a favor, think for yourself, and give things a chance before you listen to the negativity. No, it's not exactly like the books about a younger Nancy Drew. And the generation that the show was actually produced for probably has no idea the books exist, so is that really such a huge deal? The show isn't the best on TV, but the story line does pick up if you give it more than 5 minutes before you make a judgement.

As you can see, most all of the negative reviews here are from people who've read the Nancy Drew books. As someone who didn't read the books, I came into it with few expectations. Probably Nancy Drew never had sex in the books, and the writers quickly make it clear that 21st century Nancy Drew is not a prude. I don't see much else that is especially edgy, and I'm pretty sure that's what's bothering the older fans. But the show has so far been very good, and is first and foremost a mystery/detective show. There are mild supernatural elements, which I think are really well done. The show doesn't have any political agenda that I can see. So if you take reviews seriously, and are turned off by the number of bad reviews, I'd recommend you give it a try.

I have been looking forward to this ever since the adds started on tv and I was not disappointed!

I am not sure why it has so many bad reviews, I think the characters were likeable, the story was good & the atmosphere was a bit creepy! (I am not really a horror fan so this was good for me! Haha)

I have not seen any other Nancy Drew movies or read the books, maybe that is why people are not liking it, as they are comparing it to them? But I really liked ep 1 and can't wait for the next one! :)

Wow this series impressed me this is coming from a person who read all the Nancy drew books. Nothing like the books but just took the characters names

This show brings all the twists and drama you'll never expect

Save your time. Nothing about this show is original or interesting. The lead actress and cast in general is forgettable and there is nothing making me feel anything towards any of the characters. The show overall is as bland as unseasoned chicken, from the acting to the writing to beyond.
