[post_page_title]Nancy Drew the short straw[/post_page_title]
Although the Hardy Boys were well appreciated by the studio, Nancy Drew was not receiving the same kind of love. When the shows started crossing over, Nancy’s role was increasingly minimized, prompting Pamela Sue Martin to drop out from the role.
Despite finding Janet Louise Johnson to play the role, the show eventually cut Nancy’s character altogether, and simply focused the show on the Hardy Boys. That’s no way to treat one of the world’s premier teenage sleuths.
