I loved the Hardy Boys for all the HOyay moments. I bet they used those flashlights for other things too.

Did they have nunchuks as well?

I liked the Cherry Aimless/ Nancy Clue parodies.

I was about to say something about the Nancy sandwich on white.

nancy drew totally allows the rear entry...you can just see it in the coy, pursed lipped expression she's always pulling when confronted with "smugglers" or "pirates"

I was a an ardent Hardy Boys reader, but somewhat limited by the rather poor offering that my provincial bookshop had (curse you, Rochdale W & H Smith). as a result, xmas, was a big Hardy Boys fest time, when I would receive many, and always associate the Hardy Boys with Tooty Frooty sweets, as I pigged out on said sweets whiulst reading Hardy Boys adventures number 62 and 62 (Smugglers Cove and the Stone Idol, fact fans). The Smugglers Cove one was helpfully published in a red editions, which matched my favourite strawberry tooty foory and made a link in my head which persists to this day. happy times....

Trixie Belden was so much better than Nancy. We had a beautifully illustrated hard cover set that mysteriously disappeared (Mom?) one summer.

I'm pretty sure this was the first thing I ever read that could reasonably be called a novel (i.e. a book with more than 30 pages and not many pictures). I think I was about 6 or 7, but I'm not really sure.

I pretty much tore through the books after that. Then the TV show came on and I could never quite reconcile the guys on the screen witht they guys in the books, which bothered me. I would argue with my sister about it. She didn't read the books, but she had a crush on Shaun Cassidy.

Well I guess we haven't thought about this in about a decade.

New Nancy Drew television series coming soon. She will be an adult detective working in NYC. Which begs the following questions: how much did they pay for the rights to an antiquated property, why didn't they just flush that money directly down the toilet, and can she also be a male alien with superpowers who's constantly farting because why not?

guys the cw nancy drew show is really something

― adam, Friday, 8 November 2019 01:35 (four years ago) link

good/bad? I didn't even know there was a new show. the last I heard was the movie that had the girl from IT in it.

― Yerac, Friday, 8 November 2019 20:15 (four years ago) link

Emma Roberts playing her before kind of ruined a lot for me.

― Yerac, Friday, 8 November 2019 20:15 (four years ago) link

I saw a couple minutes of the new TV show. It's a Riverdale-style reinterpretation, yes?

i find riverdale to be ridiculous in an unpleasant way but the nancy drew show is high quality ridiculous, just some insane writing and plotting. easily the best show of 2019-20. plus you can gaze upon scott wolf's discount plastic surgery mangled face
