Language is infrequent: someone is called a 'badass,' and another character asks 'what the hell?' Characters show courage and perseverance in investigating a mystery, but the messages are muddled by poor characterizations. Expect more mature sexual content than was ever in the books Nancy is having sex with her boyfriend, and a trailer is shown moving rhythmically, followed by characters rearranging their clothing. A main character's mom has died the death isn't shown, but viewers do see part of the funeral and a photo of the mom looking pale and ill.

Though dead bodies are shown at length, there's no notable blood/gore. Viewers see imagery connected to both: veiled ghosts, a woman falling off a cliff, another lying dead on the ground.

The chief mystery that Nancy and her pals are called to solve involves murder, which seems to be connected with a legendary local haunting. Nancy is portrayed as college-aged (and played by 22-year-old Kennedy McMann), as are the other main characters.

Parents need to know that Nancy Drew is based on the classic mystery series, but the show's content is considerably more mature than books'.
