Every week, Josh and Mike break down an episode of LOST with the benefit of knowing the series’ full trajectory, using the following structure as a guide: (And truly, Nancy should know better at this point than to take a string of weird dead bugs from the mouth of a corpse, just saying.) Plus, it makes for several disturbingly hilarious sequences involving Bess and Ace performing an autopsy on the Drews’ living room coffee table with little more than a pizza cutter.LOST: Down the Hatch is a full-tilt spoiler-filled rewatch of LOST.

But not terribly more ridiculous than some of the other things we regularly see on this show. The idea that a haunted dead body would somehow follow Nancy home is, admittedly, kind of ridiculous. It’s really disgusting, and another great example of just how dark this show is willing to be at times. “The Riddle of the Broken Doll” sees Nancy and friends investigate a mysterious – and decidedly grotesque – dead body discovered in a local woman’s yard that’s been cut open and sewn back together, but not before being stuffed full of a variety of disgusting and bizarre items, including animal bones, extinct bugs, and flowers that haven’t grown in New England in over a hundred years. These activities are suddenly not quite so charming when they come with a rap sheet, is what I’m saying.

And it makes us, as viewers, look back on the trope of the plucky girl detective inserting herself into the mysteries we remember so fondly a little differently now. And that’s before we even get to the part where she opened dozens of ancient haunted boxes and released untold horrible terrors on the town.Īnd as wildly convenient as the twist of Nancy doing morgue community service is, it’s also a reminder that this show does at least try to make sure there are some consequences for the many ways that our heroine frequently breaks the law. An hour that not only features one of the show’s most grotesque monsters of the week to date, it also cleverly expands Nancy’s world as an investigator and, in doing so, that of the show itself.įrom doing community service at the local morgue – which, let’s be real is hardly what you might call punishment when it comes to Nancy – to working for her father part-time helping with client investigations, our favorite girl detective now has a ton of new avenues by which to encounter and delve into both the supernatural and the criminal worlds of Horseshoe Bay.

In case you were anxious that Nancy Drew’s second season would slow down now that the gang has finally defeated the Aglaeca for good, “The Riddle of the Broken Doll” is here to prove that we have nothing to worry about in that department. This Nancy drew review contains spoilers.
