Nancy Drew is a brilliant teenaged detective whose sense of self had come from solving mysteries in her hometown of Horseshoe Bay, Maine – until her mother’s untimely death derails Nancy’s college plans. Devastated by her mother’s passing, Nancy swears off crime-solving while crossing off the days until she can re-apply to college. But when a socialite is murdered, Nancy finds herself a prime suspect in the crime, along with a group of other teens present at the scene: Nancy’s nemesis from high school, George Fan; a rich girl with a mysterious past, Bess Marvin; Nancy’s secret boyfriend, Ned “Nick” Nickerson, and amiable burnout Ace. The five of them must team up to clear their own names – encountering emotional entanglements and even more mysteries along the way.

Yeah, this is Nancy Drew in name only. It can be argued that she changed significantly over the course of the novels, but this is extremely far removed from Actually being Nancy Drew. The CW did a worse job on this than they did Riverdale. The absolute worst part is the constant mentions of the actual Nancy Drew, apparently somewhere in her history, she was the character that people knew and loved from the novels. And, like Riverdale, I'm pretty sure I already solved the mystery and we're only a few weeks into it. But that's because they are spending more time focusing on making it edgy and sexy and not enough time on making an actual plot. That and there is enough hint of the new popular woke politics to limit the antagonist to only a specific race, gender, and sexuality.
