In October 2019 The CW introduced a whole new generation to super sleuth Nancy Drew. In true CW style they seamlessly incorporated a supernatural twist into a beloved cult character that fans instantly fell in love with. Although the show deviates somewhat from the original Nancy Drew with the supporting characters the team at CW has made it worth watching. A few of the noticeable differences are Nick ( Ned) being an ex-con and Bess and George are not cousins in the show. Somehow despite the changes the writers of Nancy Drew managed to create a family unit out of Nancy and the Drew Crew within a short amount of time that has withstood practically everything.
