i've been listening to the nancy drew: girl detective books on tape at work and tbh, you know what, ned nickerson is a TOP TIER YA LIT BOYFRIEND.

he is always happy to be the bait in a scheme

he is frequently a damsel in distress but not in an annoying way

he's thrilled that his girlfriend is so much smarter than he is

he can cook

i mean he's no michael moscovitz, but justice for ned nickerson! he has been getting steady puss since 1930 and i get it. i think it makes sense. none of this nancy/frank or nancy/joe nonsense in THIS house.

Nancy Drew (1995) liveblog

Block this post or blacklist **nd1995 to ignore...

First impression: the budget for this series was clearly $4.17. They had to FIGHT for the extra $3.75.

That said, the opening credits are SLAMMIN’. They FUCK. This is NANCY MOVIN’ TO THE BIG CITY IN THE ‘90s, Y’ALL, AND THE CREDITS KNOW IT! (But really, they’re fun. It’s like if Ghostwriter were about a 20-year-old.)

These were so much fun to make, both the graphics and the little storylines to go alongside them. They took longer to post than I wanted -- mostly because I get weird anxiety about posting aesthetics? -- but I absolutely love how the whole series turned out and I hope you do, too! I desperately miss the 2x-a-year ND games. I hope that these might give some other ND fans a little joy in their place, too, and some inspiration to make your own. :) I’d love to see them if you do!

Somehow I had never considered Nancy Drew/Velma Dinkley until right now and I literally had to sit down right on the floor.

"Nancy got arrested; I gotta buncha dead people's blood. I'm putting it in the fridge. Don't touch it." -- this is the only Canon (tm) Clue Crew dialogue we've seen yet on this show tbh

However also, Bess the gray-a lipstick lesbian has Always Been True
