“Nancy Drew” originally was a set of books that was a classic of its time. This new series is set in more modern times featuring three girls, Nancy, Bess and Georgina (called George by her friends), who live in New York. In a few episodes, the girls, all friends from school, are joined by Nancy’s boyfriend Ned.
No matter where Nancy goes, she always finds a mystery to investigate. Whether she is in New York or France, she has to find out the truth of some mysterious event and solve the problem. Stories include: George seeing a Hollywood star on the roof of the building where he lives. Problem is, everyone assumed this star was dead; a storyline about the man that Nancy hit with her car when she came to New York; and another story involving her friend Bess, who thinks she is being followed by a man that did not like the advice that Bess wrote in her column. Even when the group goes to France they stumble into mysteries such as the deserted Château where they got directions from a legendary ghost; Ned saving a model from being hit by a car; and another where Ned is mistakenly identified as a French man returning home to his family. It is never boring when Nancy is around with her inquisitive nature. This is a very charming series of investigation and solving mysteries. At the end of some of the episodes, Nancy points out a lesson that was learned in that story. There are also lessons about friendship and helping others. We are proud to award the Dove Family-Approved Seal for all ages to Nancy Drew – Season 1.
