4.0 out of 5 stars A great series with a new Nancy, December 29, 2009

This review is from: Nancy Drew (1995) - The Complete First Season (Boxset) (DVD)

Compared to the 70s Nancy Drew series, this one might not be considered good because of the short stories and new Nancy. However, I thought that everything was really nice about this series. In this series, Nancy is 20 in the first two episodes then 21 in the last eleven. She goes to college and is a criminology major. She lives near Bess and George, two of her best friends. The difference between this Nancy and the one we know and love is that she is a brunette. We're talking dark black hair. This made her a little unbelievable, but her personality was so spot-on Nancy Drew that you could overlook her appearance. Bess and George were exactly what I would think of them as, Bess being bubbly and girly, while George was tougher (George is a girl for those who don't know). Ned Nickerson, Nancy's boyfriend, appears in a few episodes, and in this series he doesn't support Nancy's love for mysteries, which was strange to me. The episodes, although short, were really entertaining, in my opinion. Some even had a little scare factor mixed in. The endings were usually very fast, like they had to be wrapped up in the last 4 minutes, but they were still good. Each episode is about 24 minutes, and they are all mysterious at some point. I recommend this to Nancy fans and families who like mystery shows.

This review is from: Nancy Drew (1995) - The Complete First Season (Boxset) (DVD)

This is, for my money, the most attractive Nancy Drew ever. I don't recall what the girl's name was who played her, but she was strikingly gorgeous.Unfortunately, this seems to be the show's primary asset. The problem is, the episodes are about a half-hour long. This leads to an obvious situation:by the time you develop any interest in the plot(assuming you do), the show is over.I don't know if you could make Columbo interesting in thirty minutes.It's just not enough time to develop any kind of story. Still, it's a pleasant enough show. Just don't expect anything more than that.

For those who enjoy Nancy Drew or wished that she was one than you should own this 1995 Nancy Drew series boxset,cause this was the last time that Nancy was on any television until the Nancy Drew movie and computer games so if you loved Nancy then is one for you to keep up with the collection.
So buy one today and enjoy Nancy again.
