That tragedy leads to Nancy giving up her hobby of being a teen detective, as well as her focus on her schoolwork - so when we meet Nancy a year later, she’s a townie (in Horseshoe Bay, Maine) still living at home with her father Carson Drew (Scott Wolf), having meaningless sex with a mechanic named Ned “Nick” Nickerson (Tunji Kasim), and working as a waitress as a local diner called The Claw. Developed by producing duo Josh Schwartz and Stephanie Savage (“The O.C.,” “Gossip Girl,” “Runaways,” “Looking For Alaska”) and Noga Landau (“The Magicians”), Nancy Drew stars Kennedy McMann as the titular Nancy, now 18 years old and in a bad place in her life following the death of her mom (Sara Canning). Which is perhaps the most important thing to realize before diving into the new series.

And “Riverdale” is going into its fourth season of camp and full-blown insanity while “Nancy Drew” is just about to get its sea legs, taking place in a small fishing town that, while full of superstitions and ghost stories, still resembles a reality that looks like our own in a way “Riverdale” never has and has never attempted. Because while there are literal ghosts and supernatural elements at play in Nancy Drew - unlike in “Riverdale,” which constantly teases the possibility of the supernatural but pulls away, in favor of somehow even more absurd options - based on the first two episodes which were available for review, it’s far more grounded in reality than “Riverdale” ever was. Dark reimaginings of the squeakiest of clean, youth-oriented stories make perfect sense working together to the common goal of ratings success.īut the pairing of “Riverdale” and “Nancy Drew” is also a potentially dangerous choice, specifically when it comes to the presentation of the latter.
So the pairing of “Riverdale” and the new mysterious show on the block “ Nancy Drew” - aka “Nancy Drew Who Fucks” - is arguably a brilliant choice for the network, a no-brainer. The CW is currently most well-known for two things: Greg Berlanti’s supreme network dominance in the form of DC Comics superhero shows and “Riverdale.” The latter, also known as “Hot Archie Who Fucks,” has been a runaway hit for the network, with its powers (in terms of viewership and in finding middle-aged men to fight Archie Andrews) only growing stronger every time a new season hits Netflix after the broadcast airing.
