  • its the guy from felicity, so cute.

  • After the first couple of episodes, Tracy Ryan found her footing as the character and was pretty good the rest of the way through. The problems with the show were not of her doing, and I enjoyed the concept of a little bit older college student Nancy. But the running time of the episodes was just over twenty two minutes which meant the mysteries were rather simple and way too easily concluded. Everything seemed rush. And the low low budget didn't help either.

  • so this was the final episode, how pathetic ans sad

  • They absolutely messed up Nancy's character! I was so excited when there was going to be a series but was greatly disappointed. Watched about 10 minutes then turned it off. However, they did nail George and Bess, that's exactly how I imagined them when I read the books. And at least they got her blue mustang right.

  • @WithurShield Thank you for the thoughts, Withur. I agree they nailed George and Bess. I gotta say I still love Tracy Ryan's Nancy character. She's smart and confident. She also doesn't appear to care that much about Ned, which is the way a lot of the books are, at least the early ones that I'm most familiar with. It's not the greatest series in the world, but I think I paid $16 or something for the DVDs and felt it was worth the price. Thank you for stopping by!

  • Imposter. She looks nothing like nancy. Fuck the people that made this. idiots

  • @WhittyD34 Whitty---Thank you for your insight that a fictional character from a 15 year old TV show doesn't look like a fictional character from a 80 year old book. I will pass your note on to people who care. re: "F**k the people that made this." I understand the actress is married, so if I get a chance, I will pass your recommendation onto her husband that you wish him to have sex with her. I probably don't have to tell him twice!!! Thank you for stopping by!

  • that is the ugliest Nancy Drew i have ever seen.

  • @misscomplication1 Tracy Ryan sent me a note and said she is devastated by your comment.

  • @twtom yeahh right.

  • @misscomplication1 I crack myself up with some of my witty responses.

  • @tennisgurl206 maybe she colored it.

  • Uh in thw captive curse ned had a fight with Nancy. But it's true he's trying to hold on but she's always away. I wonder if he'll come to Germany to see hwr. I would like that very much. Cross ur fingers

  • @MsTamaGirl I heard the next nancy game is in river heights with ned, bess, george, and I think the hardy boys. I can't wait. :)

  • @animemarz3 me too! i'm so excited!

  • @MsTamaGirl lol yeah, I'm not sure about hardy boys though...I hope they're in it :)

  • @animemarz3 this girl "nancydrwfan" here on youtube has been doing great work posting game screenshots and movies. Check out her posts or youtube homepage.

  • @MsTamaGirl and @animemarz3 yeah have you seen ned on the website? he's not as cute as thought he would be.

  • Hello, this isn't nancy¬]¬

  • ned looks like robert patterson

  • @wolflover8875 oh good catch...yeah robert pattinson. Thank you for your comment.

  • @twtom he looks like Scott from Felicity

  • IDK i wanted to watch this, but nancy just isnt.... like the nancy in the book wich im used to, so yea...Nice Job though!!

  • @fanatgemady153 what is it about this Nancy that isn't like "the nancy in the book" you're reading? See I think she's smart and tough like ND in the books, but a lot of people just don't get past the hair color. Thanks for stopping and commenting.

  • Nancy is supposed to have titan hair or straberry blonde!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • @alexrussofan1 Nancy emailed me earlier today and said she had used the wrong color hair dye that day. :)

  • ew ew ew ew ew ew ew!!!!!!

  • @LoneSola Hey hey....have some respect for The Drew !

  • @twtom i love nancy drew, don't get me wrong! and ned's cute, just not how i pictured nancy... sorry. :P her voice sounds like her though....and i....gotta admit i'm a bit immature when it comes to scenes like this...;D no offense intended, really!

  • @LoneSola Were you hoping for the blond hair like most of the book covers? Yeah though I think her style is so much like the Nancy in the books: confident, cool, smart.

  • she looks nothing like Nancy drew!! she is suppose to have blonde hair

  • @jc960551 She had several different colors in the book series. Though this is the first I'd seen her as a brunette.

  • @jc960551 I KNOW RIGHT!!!!!!!!!

  • Whoa. That is SO not Nancy as I envision her...who does Nancy's voice in all of the Her Interactive Nancy Drew PC games? That voice actress should play Nancy Drew in a movie. Those games rock, and so does that Nancy. Just saying.

  • @PianoGirl091 Thank you, PianoGirl for your comment. When you say that this is not Nancy as you envision her, it sounds like it's frustrating for you, and you need Nancy Drew in an old TV show to look the way you imagine her. I get a little frustrated with your comment, because I want fans to understand that the heart and spirit of Nancy is more important than her looks.

  • @twtom I fully understand that there are many different "Nancy's" to speak of when it comes to physical appearance. I was simply saying that the girl in this video does not portray Nancy as I envision her, and you will see that lots of other people have said similar things. I will say, however, that this girl is a hell of a lot better than Emma Roberts.

  • @PianoGirl091 re: "I will say, however, that this girl is a hell of a lot better than Emma Roberts." Oh yeah, amen to that. Emma was a pretty good pick for the role in theory, but in the end the movie was pretty bad.

  • @PianoGirl091 Yes she is so much better than Emma Roberts. It's too bad Emma didn't get a chance to do a second movie.

  • @PianoGirl091 her name is lani minella and shes WAY older than nancy

  • @PianoGirl091 Lani Minella

  • Tracy Ryan is gorgeous with her full red lips and big blue eyes and sweet voice. Definitrely the best film/TV version of Nancy ever. Absolute faithfulness to an original appearance is not all that important. The plots were good, the other actors were good, and Tracy is .... simply beautiful!

  • @SKIPINTRO9 Tracy Ryan was the best of all of them in TV and film.

  • this nancy is nothing like the true nancy drew

  • @cherrylover24 Thank you for your comment on Nancy Drew, cherrylover24. When you say she is nothing like the true Nancy Drew it is confusing to me because I'm not sure who you mean is the "true Nancy Drew." I need acceptance that I think this Nancy Drew is very much in the spirit of the Nancy Drew of the original 1930s to 1950s books, although she might not have the same hair color.

  • Nancy has long TITIAN hair not short brown hair, and she is slender and fashionable not chubby and gaudy

  • WTF as i've read and what i've seen O_o i imagines Nancy Drew to be very beautiful WTF is this O_e

  • I got my DVDs from Amazon.com. Search under "Nancy Drew Tracy Ryan" If you're an ND fan, it's well worth the $20 US.

  • thats simon baker from the ring 2.

  • @nuwavething--- It's Scott Speedman, a Canadian film and television actor. He was "Ben Covington" in the television drama Felicity and Lycan/Vampire "Michael Corvin" in the "Underworld" movies.

  • Yeah other people have posted that this isnt a breakup. But there are other hints in this short-lived TV series that Nancy and Ned didn't get along well anymore. Tracy Ryan nailed this role. I thought she was the best Nancy on film or video.

  • they didn't break up he just went to Africa, and what life she's always solving mysteries

  • WHOA wats up with the HUGE lips and the hairduo but it is 1950i gussed

  • this nancy is very unattractive

  • ned looks like a tan robert pattinson O.o

  • shucks.

  • This is a TERRIBLE nancy!! what the heck- strawberry blonde hair not dark hair

  • The TV series is OK i guess....but I like he game series better...Ah... it's just my opinion...

  • ive never seen this version of nancy drew mysteries with this actress before. =\ i wana see this.

  • GOD DAMN SHE IS FUGLY

  • =] I really did like this lol also in the more recent books they kiss a lot! I also saw that this was out the year I was born =D

  • :o its Roll Caskett from the Megaman Legends series

  • @Dannon0 Too funny! She is Roll. But then who is he?

  • I notice in the latest ND iPhone app "manga" cartoons by uClick that she again goes to strawberry blond hair. I thought Tracy Ryan in the 1995 series nailed the Nancy role better than anyone previously or since, including Pamela Sue Martin, so the hair color never bothered me. Girls change hair color all the time, anyway.

  • @twtom i didnt know there wus a nancy drew SERIES! omg i want to see it . =\

  • If you read her books you would know that she and Ned kiss alot!. I mean ALOT.

  • None of the episodes (in this particular reincarnation of Nancy Drew on television) was based on any of the books that I know of. In the original book series (1930-1950-something), I don't remember her kissing Ned. In these TV episodes, it's assumed she's sleeping with Ned when he visits her. But her more recent books of the last 20 years...yes!...she's kissing a lot. I haven't read many of them, but the ones I have...yes!

  • @twtom  could u tell me some of the titles of these books please? :)

  • @Heatherettex3ily O_O I read the books, but they do not kiss alot at all, what books have u been readin? (i dont mean that disrespectfully)

  • @AnimeGrrl03 the "Nancy Drew Files" they kiss alot more than most. :) haha. Message me we can talk more :).

  • Nancy Drew doesn't kiss boys! Shes like a nun almost!

  • oh yeah sometimes she kisses boys

  • @alxiscool123 I so agree with you... :D

  • ned sounds so much cuter in the books

  • Wrong hair color!! I think Emma Roberts did...ok I guess in the newest movie. But they should have gotten someone more older

  • she does not look like nancy at all nancy is supposed to have red hair not brown

  • nancy is supposed to have strawberry blonde hair!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Honestly I think Pamela Sue Martin is the best Nancy Drew. I mean she really looks like Nancy from the books.

  • She's gorgeous, just adorable.

  • is she nancy????????

  • she is supposed to have strawberry blonde hair. she is not that good of a nancy drew.

  • Magggie Lawson & Emma Roberts make better Nancy Drews imao.

  • @silverdakotaable Maggie was the best - persona, hair color and age but Emma Emma ah, not feisty enough & too young. I dont know why they cast her for the role

  • @silverdakotaable Oh no, no, no. Emma Roberts never understood what Nancy was about. I liked Maggie Lawson, but she just did one movie so it's hard to know whether she would have been consistently better than Tracy Ryan in this tv series. Thank you for stopping by and commenting.

  • @silverdakotaable

    Pamela Sue Martin makes the best Nancy Drew better thn Magggie Lawson & Emma Roberts!!!!

  • @vedashreeJk Pamela Sue Martin was excellent. In the end, I like Tracy Ryan's Nancy character, but Pamela Sue Martin is a big favorite of most people who have an opinion.

  • poor ned...

  • Do Nancy and Ned get back together????

    =(

  • OMG that guy is HOT!

  • yeah, only if you like guys.

  • actually nancy drew looks nothing like she is supposed to here, emma roberts is a waaaay better fit!!!

  • I dunno what Nancy is _supposed_ to look like.

  • I like Nancy Drew stories, movies, TV, etc. but I thought that new Nancy Drew movie with Emma Roberts was pretty bad.

  • hey... i hate their break up... you know what comes to my mind during this scene? i was really puzzled whether that short haired girl was Nancy...

  • yup, she's nancy.

  • My favorites are "The Hidden Staircase" and "Secret of the Old Attic"...the original versions, from 1930 and 1944.

  • Actually, with Emma Roberts, it's strawberry blond.

    It's just that in most of the books, she was a strawberry blond.

    No one's upset with YOU. Just the fact that she isn't strawberry blond. At one point, she did have brown hair but it wasn't for long. It changed (I'm betting that she dyed it.)

  • Well, thank you for your comment. I'm reading The Password to Larkspur Lane now. The first one. 1932. Nancy Drew has brave attitude. Fight for right. Her heart with people less fortunate than her. She's smart and uses her smart for goodness. Okay like my Nancy Drew in this video. Nancy Drew is not about hair colors. And you're smarter than the others, MarauderRaine, and you probably understand. (No Ned Nickrson in Larkspur Lane book though!)

  • Thank you for the compliment and understanding. :)

    And you're right, it's not about hair colors. But most humans hate change. It's natural for us to be a little 'uneasy' about the whole hair thing, but as long as we're on the same page. :)

    Oh, I loved that book. :D

  • Oh I'm reading the same one!

  • Glad to know we're on the same page. :)

    Actually, in some of the books it said she was a strawberry blond. Like in: "The Sign of the Twisted Candles" and some other books.

    Actually, I didn't think of Titian that was until you mentioned it. :p

  • she looks nothing like Nancy Drew is supposed !!!!! What happened to blonde hair and such ????

  • Oh what is Nancy Drew supposed to look like? If you are referring to Emma Roberts---she is not the real Nancy Drew, but simply an actress in a movie several years ago. She had blonde hair. Nancy Drew, pictured above in my youtube video, has brown hair.

  • I know that Emma Roberts is not the real Nancy Drew. Technically speeking there is no 'real' Nancy Drew cause she is a fictional character but in most of the original books it says that she has strawberry-blonde hair.

  • Contrary to what you think Nancy Drew is not a real person,she is a made up character created by Carolyn Keene in 1927 and she has strawberry blonde hair . Not brown

  • and blue eyes.

  • Does this look like a cartoon to you? This is a real person. If you think Carolyn Keene---supposedly an author----is real, then that's where YOU are wrong. She wrote books in 1929 and 2009. What? Is she like 120 years old? I can also tell the difference between blonde and brown hair. This woman, Nancy Drew, has brown hair. Maybe you should adjust the color on your computer or iPhone if she is strawberry blonde to you.

  • I think what that person meant is that the character of Nancy Drew is not real. Not to actor. Carolyn Keene did exist, but after her untimely death a new group took over an wrote Nancy Drew under her name.

    In the books, she has strawberry blond hair. In this ..THING....she has brown hair.

  • Carolyn Keene, Carolyn Keene-- everyone keeps saying "Carolyn Keene" She did not exist, so she did not die. Carolyn Keene is a made up, pretend person. So everyone keeps saying this is not Nancy Drew because Carolyn Keene is real and Nancy has strawbery blond hair so this Nancy Drew is not real. Is Madonna not real because she has been blonde, brunette, strawberry, magenta, etc.? C'mon. What, is Ned kissing air in this video. No, a brown haired Nancy Drew is who he's kissing.

  • Even if Carolyn Keene isn't real, Nancy Drew is a made up character. I never said anything about her not being real because she's a strawberry blond. She's a MADE up character. That person is an actress playing Nancy Drew and that's an actor playing Ned. There was no real Nancy Drew. Just as Carolyn Keene was a made up person- as you say-, Nancy Drew was as well.

  • The name Carolyn Keene itself doesnt belong to anyone. The author Mildred Wirt Benson is the actual author of Nancy Drew but she went by the name of Carolyn Keene to create the books. Ya she is dead and ya other people have attempted to make other books like hers ( I dont think many of them worked out )

  • CArolyn Keene is not real, but she does belong to someone. Yah you try writing a book with the name Carolyn Keene and faster than you can say "Simon and Schuster" someone will be telling you "No can do!" Make Nancy's hair whatever color you like---maybe several colors like a peacock---and someone will get mad. Me? I like her hair brown. Thank you for posting.

  • yeh nancy is supposed to be blonde

  • wiat isnt nancy blonde?

  • My cousin plays Nancy Drew in this series

  • That is so cool. She's wonderful and tell her to stop by and post some time.

  • y r u guys talking lk nancy drew really exists in real life?? or m i missing smth?

  • Yes she exists. This is no cartoon, Starz. Hellooo! It's a REAL person.

  • this is awful... nancy and ned would never be like this...

  • Never be like what? Kissing? Boyfriend and girlfriend? Breaking up?

  • Of course they're dating but these actors' portrayals of them are awful and look nothing like them. Ned has dark hair is more assertive and sexier, he plays football and Nancy is blonde and much prettier. And Nancy wouldn't break up with Ned over his going to Africa for 6 months, she'd probly just get Carson to let her jet down every 2 months to see him. When Nancy Drew is modernized the characters end up looking and acting like any generic modern teens, which is stupid and boring.

  • First of all, I didn't put in the whole thing. There's a football game scene just before this one and Ned scored. Second, Nancy is independent and just may have dyed her hair. Third, Ned has dark hair in this. Fourth, just when did Carson get a jet? Fifth&finally, Nancy "modernized"? She's been the same age since 1930 (well, she was 16 in the first book, and 18 ever since). She's not modernized---she's stuck in time. So I totally reject your comments. But thank you and I appreciate your opinion.

  • Well it's just my opinion, which is that this series does not seem done in the original spirit of Nancy Drew. And when I said "jet" I didn't mean that Carson had one I mean that he would let Nancy fly to Africa to see Ned if she wanted to. In the books Nancy, Ned and the gang are always rushing all the around the globe to solve mysteries... so I don't see what the big deal is about Ned going to Africa.

  • that person is NOT nancy!!!! she doesnt fit her description in the books

  • Yes, it's really Nancy. She's a real person and never liked the way she was portrayed in books.

  • your welcome i love arguments lik this!! haha i argue about the most stupidest things!!

  • ah, don't sell yourself short...you argue about Nancy Drew and Anna Popplewell...those are good things and not everyone has the brains to take a position on them. You do, and nice to see you here. All the best!

  • Comment removed

  • Thank you for your comment. You're welcome here if you're gay or straight. And Anna Popplewell is hot!

  • lol i thought when she was shouting NED she was going to like change her mind or something.

  • Yeah, I think the writers wanted to show how torn she was about him versus her career and needs. I think they also hoped for another season or two of shows!

  • wat the HECK!! I DO NOT GET THIS!! she kinda looks like anna popplewell..sorta!

  • Anna popplewell is hot, yeah.

  • Comment removed

  • that is not the real ned and nancy

  • No this is the REAL ned and nancy. They are real people and this is a documentary. A lot of people think they are just characters in a book. Thanks for giving me the opportunity to clear that up.

  • Ok, this girl doesn't even look like Nancy and the other dude doens't look like anything liek Ned. Totally horrible series. :(

  • Wow, what does Nancy look like? Did you see her recently?

  • oh god the girl looked so ugly. this is so like old movie thingy

  • that was so weird

  • that kiss was pathetic!

  • This Nancy looks like George. It meets her Descriptions. Nancys description in the series says she has Red-Blonde hair.

  • I love nancy drew I have read close to the whole series but one thing that bugs me is that in all movies and videos she never has strwberry blonde hair wich is what her hair color is supposed to be oh and cangradulations to linochkaangle for reading all of the books (there is over 100 of them!)I am in the 80's for the books but I have had to skip a few cause I can't find them

  • omg 6 months! NANCY YOU IDIOT! You can leave for half a year! It's better then leaving forever!(<- *inner self* she only says this cause it ALMOST made her cry which pissed her off :P)

  • 6 months. Big whoop.

    I don't think she makes a good Nancy..

  • BLASPHEMY.

  • she broke up with him over africa??? she couldnt have simply said, no i dont want to go with you, i'll wait here for you??? If you love someone enough, 6 months is worth the time waiting...

  • DAS IZ SO FAKE

  • who calls their girldfriend by their full name?

  • Nancy drew in the old books has redish brownish hair it usually says!

  • Actually, the books I read said that her hair was strawberry blonde. I reminded Tracy (the actor playing Drew) of that -- she was not amused.

  • OMG DOES NANCY DREW BREAK UP WITH NED?? I HAVENT READ ALL NANCY DREW BOOKS SO I DONT KNO BUT I HOPE THEY STAY TOGETHER NED IS SUCH A LUVLY GUY ALWAYS THERE FOR NANCY aww

  • nancy is supposed to have titian blonde hair, but in both of th movies she has brownISH hair. it is actually way darker and shorter in this one.

  • the old 1 stinks more than the new 1!

  • this is terrible nancy wuld never ever brake up wit ned wat the hack she;s supposed to b blonde

  • Who kisses right after a breakup?

  • that is what i was thinking

  • gaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaayyyy

  • ..you're joking, right?

  • It seemed ambiguous to me,not a genuine breakup. Of course,once Ned got together with Felicity it was all over.

  • nancy drew has blond hair

  • isnt she supposed 2 b blonde????????
