"TONIGHT ON THE HARDY BOYS / NANCY DREW MYSTERIES",
By
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: The Hardy Boys/Nancy Drew Mysteries (DVD)
If you're looking for more mystery and suspense then season two of "The Hardy Boys / Nancy Drew Mysteries" may be for you! Season two of this classic 70's television series finds the three unlikely sleuths in fine form and up to the challenges that await them. Shaun Cassidy, Parker Stevenson and Pamela Sue Martin have returned for 22 more mysterious and thrilling adventures in season two and fans of this show won't be disappointed.Season two contains a number of solid episodes but it's the two cross-over episodes entitled The Hardy Boys & Nancy Drew Meet Dracula / The Mystery of The Hollywood Phantom that really stand out in this season for me. Season two is also bitter sweet for fans of the show because it marks the end of Pamela Sue Martin as Nancy Drew as Janet Louise Johnson replaces her as Nancy midway through the second season. Once the change in Nancy's character takes place and Janet Louise Johnson takes over it becomes evident that this show will never be the same and the end for Nancy Drew isn't far behind. Season two is a mixed bag when it comes to the quality of plots the actors were given to work with but if its nostalgia you're after then season two is definitely for you. The 70's were the best when it came to family entertainment and I can't think of any show on television today that families can sit and watch together. The 22 episodes included in this set are filled with mystery, suspense, adventure and pure fun for the whole family even if they're a little dated. The quality of the picture and sound in season two is really decent and I'm glad I've added this DVD set to my collection. I don't remember seeing or hearing this show look or sound as good as it does on DVD. Finally Universal Studios has done something right and presented season two on 5 single sided discs with nice artwork and detail. The disc packaging and artwork are well done and Universal Studios should be commended for their efforts, all we need now is the final season to complete the series. The Main Cast: Shaun Cassidy.....Joe Hardy (34 episodes) Parker Stevenson.....Frank Hardy (34 episodes) Pamela Sue Martin.....Nancy Drew (21 episodes) Janet Louise Johnson.....Nancy #2 (4 episodes) Edmund Gilbert....Fenton Hardy (21 episodes) William Schallert....Carson Drew (11 episodes) DVD Episodes Include: -The Hardy Boys and Nancy Drew Meet Dracula Part I -The Hardy Boys and Nancy Drew Meet Dracula Part II -The Mystery of King Tut's Tomb -The Mystery of the Hollywood Phantom Part I -The Mystery of the Hollywood Phantom Part II -Mystery of the African Safari -The Creatures Who Came on Sunday -Strange Fate of Flight 608 -Acapulco Spies -Nancy Drew's Love Match -The Mystery of the Silent Scream -Will the Real Santa Claus... -The Lady on Thursday at Ten -Oh Say Can You Sing -The House on Possessed Hill -Sole Survivor -Voodoo Doll Part I -Voodoo Doll Part II -Mystery on the Avalanche Express -Death Surf -Arson and Old Lace -Campus Terror *Bonus Materials - America's Top Sleuth

Great Nostalgic TV,

I liked this series back in the 70's when I was a youngster. The intervening decades have jaded me somewhat, but these are still great entertainment, if a bit cheesy. Well worth the expense.

The mystery of "Will They Ever Release Season Two" is finally solved!,
By J. McDonald - Published on Amazon.com

This review is from: The Hardy Boys/Nancy Drew Mysteries (DVD)
I'm VERY excited that we're finally going to see another season make it to DVD. However, I do have a minor complaint:Season TWO consists of "22 episodes" and three are "two-part" episodes (making the real "whole episode" count "19"). Here is a list of the "season two" episodes: The Hardy Boys and Nancy Drew Meet Dracula (Part 1) - 09/11/77 The Hardy Boys and Nancy Drew Meet Dracula (Part 2) - 09/18/77 The Mystery of King Tut's Tomb 09/25/77 The Mystery of the Hollywood Phantom (Part 1) - 10/02/77 The Mystery of the Hollywood Phantom (Part 2) - 10/09/77 The Mystery of the African Safari - 10/16/77 The Creatures Who Came From Sunday - 10/30/77 The Strange Fate of Flight 608 - 11/06/77 Acapulco Spies - 11/13/77 Nancy Drew's Love Match - 01/20/77 The Silent Scream - 11/27/77 Will the Real Santa Claus..? - 12/18/77 The Lady on Thursday at Ten - 01/01/78 Oh Say Can You Sing - 01/08/78 The House on Possessed Hill - 02/22/78 Sole Survivor - 01/29/78 Voodoo Doll (Part 1) - 02/12/78 Voodoo Doll (Part 2) - 02/19/78 Mystery Of The Avalanche Express - 12/26/78 Death Surf - 03/12/78 Arson and Old Lace - 03/31/78 The Campus Terror - 05/06/78 "Season Three" consists of only "10 episodes" and two are "two parts" (which basically makes it an "8 episode" season). I think that it would have made more sense to release a "season two AND season three" combo box set. I realize that it would have added to the cost, but then we may end up having to wait a couple more years for the final "10" ("8") episodes. Let's hope not!! This series is standard "Glen Larson" material and GREAT nostalgia entertainment! The chemistry of the cast helps to drive the series and make it a light hearted, fun, and quite enjoyable viewing experience! -JM 25 of 27 people found the following review helpful

Finally! Season Two is here!,
By A. Minutella "mystery buff" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: The Hardy Boys/Nancy Drew Mysteries (DVD)
This is a terrific season for HB/ND fans, with some terrific guest stars such as Dennis Weaver, Jaclyn Smith, Rick Springfield, and Maureen McCormick. The only disappointment is Pamela Sue Martin's midseason departure as Nancy Drew. After two years, fans are finally getting this terrific season DVD box set.

Fun, fun, fun series,
By J. Pastrana - Published on Amazon.com

This review is from: The Hardy Boys/Nancy Drew Mysteries (DVD)
Hate to sound like a demented fan - but I can't wait! This is the season that features the cross-over episodes of Hardy Boys and Nancy Drew Meet Dracula/ Hardy Boys and Nancy Drew Meet the Hollywood Phantom. Plus I hope this has the "rare" Christmas ep of Nancy Drew - Will the Real Santa Claus... As mentioned, the major disappointment comes with Pamela Sue Martin's departure. In an interview she said she didn't want to turn into the girl that said - you boys solve the mystery while I go call the police. And sure enough that's what happened to the new Nancy. If anybody recalls - the first episode of Janet Louise Johnson as Nancy was one of the most idiotic episodes ever. First, her Nancy has been missing for months, kidnapped and held captive by an old geezer. That Nancy couldn't get out of that one herself was so preposterous. Then - to add further insult to injury, the Hardy Boys have to come rescue her and all she does the entire time is whine. Pamela's version of Nancy would've gotten out long before the Hardy Boys got there. Watch the Dracula and Phantom episodes and see how well she holds her own against the boys!
