Topic: Nancy Drew (2019)

https://static.next-episode.net/tv-shows-images/huge/nancy-drew.jpg

Set in the summer after her high school graduation, 18-year-old Nancy Drew thought she'd be leaving her hometown for college, but when a family tragedy holds her back another year, she finds herself embroiled in a ghostly murder investigation - and along the way, uncovers secrets that run deeper than she ever imagined.

I understand there have been previous incarnations of this show going back to the 1970s.
This not normally a who-dunnit type of show I would normally watch but after watching a few eps I was hooked as it is a mixture of spooky participants ( atleast season 1). I was genuinely startled by their entrances

Re: Nancy Drew (2019)

I'm debating with myself since forever if I should drop the show or not... It's not really bad, but not that good either...

Some shows you might <3 too: https://next-episode.net/messiah https://next-episode.net/devs https://next-episode.net/ted-lasso https://next-episode.net/the-outsider

Re: Nancy Drew (2019)

I have now seen all the current eps. good points the abrupt supernatural incursions into real life that have made me jump, good ideas.  The bad - the "relationships" of them all esp Nancy Drew who comes across as a bit of a twit in that respect as she is a bit of a push over and oh George the butch Crab Claw manager

▼Spoiler

who dumps her fiance moments before getting married just because she has her extended life back after getting rid of Odette who she was sharing her body with and now wants to liiiiiiiiiiiiive

I keep it for "when there won't be anything else to watch". So far with this methodology I have hoarded 105 shows I have not finished watching big_smile

How do you keep track and dont you forget the plot and need to rewatch from the start of the season? I only have one like that DC Legends.  Arrow I never finished or rather just skipped to the soppy syrupy end

Sometimes I forget and just watch the pilot again, but mostly I remember the general idea. I would say I more often forget how previous season ended if there are long gaps in between.

And some I drop after keeping them for a year or three - like Arrow - checked that it has a million episodes, let's be real, I will never watch them all, bye.

Re: Nancy Drew (2019)

Checked watchlist, in theory I have 2399 unwatched episodes of all these shows.

If avg. episode length is 40 min, it's 1600 hours or 67 days big_smile

But let's face it, "there won't be anything else to watch" will probably never happen again. cool

True, but sometimes I dig up there great shows I have put off for a rainy day. For example, I actually watched GoT years later than everybody else, tried 3x to finish the first ep, in the end watched all 8 seasons at once.
