No one understands tweens, really.

(carmen, nancy drew, and fairy tales are really my three areas of cultural expertise. in that order.)

 

[Charlet]

The show helped me from well joining my mom on you know where

 

[Neb]

I never saw Nancy Drew, tbh

 

[Chase]

You know what I really want to know, though? Is where @Morgan's inspiration for Carmen comes from, if not the cartoons?

 

[Charlet]

Nancy drew is books and games

 

[Jacqueline Hyde]

there are nancy drew movies, but they're not very good. well, the emma roberts one was actually a rather good movie, but a positively shitty nancy drew movie. i haven't seen the new one.

 

[Jacqueline Hyde]

the bonita granville ones from the 30s were mind-blowingly terrible.

 

[Neb]

Honestly, and I know I say this all the time, but Morgan is naturally Carmen. She just tweaks some things.

 

[Jacqueline Hyde]

she really, truly is. i am consistently stunned by the resemblance.

 

[Charlet]

Little orphan Annie is a really forgotten girl who did what she wanted and helped American during the Great Depression. Everyone only remembers the musical

 

[Jacqueline Hyde]

also, for new watchers - we haven't even scratched what @Patty referred to as "the emotional resonance of woeics." that comes mostly in the remnants and follow my footprints, but also the finale.
