#i absolutely love roswell (og) & felicity though i only watched them years after they aired on dvd

of course I would get invested in one more The CW show before the network became a shadow of its former self...

...a show I started watching in season 1... lost track of... have never fully caught up on...but here I am watching new episodes live & catching up on the network's app...

...which is incredibly reflective of my relationship with The WB/The CW shows over the years actually...

Nancy Drew season 4. A fitting swan song so far for the The CW itself, as it was:

Play me that cursed-lovers, slow-burn, long-live-the-friend-group, musical-chairs-of-who's-dating-who, hot-parents-with-backstory, small-town-with-personality, filmed-in-Vancouver, everybody's-beautiful all-of-the-angst-but-also-snarky-one-liners, tune once more, with feeling.

Nobody does it quite like you anymore

#nancy drew #nancy drew cw #nancy x ace #the cw #past my prickliness over the cw handing me a cactus with nancy drew's name on it that was not the book series adaptation I've longed for #(...mostly / as much as I'm ever over anything/ you're forgiven not forgotten!) #it's hitting that nostalgia note and delivering on tropes i like perfectly #the cw was always my old reliable #when there was nothing else i wanted to watch #i could throw on a random episode of Vampire Diaries or The Originals #watch with no context to what was going on that season #and enjoy it #it was my network of buffy and charmed and supernatural all of which had a massive influence on my taste and what i want to write #(and not to leave out angel: let's just assume it included there with 'buffy') #i absolutely love roswell (og) & felicity though i only watched them years after they aired on dvd #gilmore girls. hart of dixie. #I never really watched jane the virgin or crazy ex-girlfriend but those shows were there as 'something I'll prob like when i have time' #everwood! how could i forget everwood with treat williams' recent passing! #for a while i watched every single superhero show they were airing #(smallville and birds of prey even way before the arrowverse) #each year I've always kept an eye on The CW pilots #(whatever happened to that Little Women in the zombie apocalypse starring BBC Robin Hood's Maid Marian?? i still want that unaired pilot) #it could be goofy it could be low-budget it could become a shadow of itself or go in directions i did not want to follow (a la The 100) but #man it's always been my jam #i suppose there'll be the Canadian shows they'll be reairing but #i don't think we'll quite see the like of this again #I'm enjoying it while i can!!
