{{anchor|1995 TV series}}
The second ''Nancy Drew'' series, ''Nancy Drew'' aired in first-run syndication from September to December 1995. Produced by [[Nelvana]], [[Tracy Ryan (actress)|Tracy Ryan]] starred as Nancy Drew, who is now a 21-year-old criminology student, moving to New York City and living in an upscale apartment complex called the "Callisto". Nancy solved various mysteries with Bess (Jhene Erwin), a gossip columnist at ''The Rag'', and George ([[Joy Tanner]]), a mail carrier and amateur filmmaker. [[Scott Speedman]] recurred as Ned Nickerson, who works on charity missions in Africa. This ''Nancy Drew'' series was again partnered with [[The Hardy Boys (1995 TV series)|a series based on ''The Hardy Boys'']], with Ryan appearing in two episodes of the latter series as Nancy.

The series was based on ''[[The Nancy Drew Files]]'' series, and the three stars were used on several of the series' covers to promote the show. Both shows were cancelled midway through their first seasons due to low ratings; the poorly syndicated half-hour shows aired in a slot outside of prime time on the newly launched [[The WB]] and [[UPN]] networks.<ref>Kismaric and Heiferman (2007), 122.</ref> The entire series has since been released on DVD, and has appeared on several online streaming sites, including the Retro Rerun YouTube channel.

On December 15, 2002, ABC aired ''[[Nancy Drew (2002 film)|Nancy Drew]]'', starring [[Maggie Lawson]] and produced by [[Lawrence Bender]]. The movie was intended to be a pilot for a possible weekly series, which would see Nancy and her friends going off to college in a modern setting and Nancy pursuing a journalism degree. Like the 1930s films, this pilot also took a more mature turn, with the mystery being a drug bust and Nancy having a falling out with her father. The pilot aired as part of the ''Wonderful World of Disney'' series, with additional scripts being ordered and production contingent on the movie's ratings and reception. The series was passed at ABC, and [[UPN]] also passed following Lawson being cast in another ABC series.<ref>{{cite news|url=http://www.enquirer.com/editions/2002/12/13/tem_1213robbie.html|author=Harris, Beth|title=No mystery: Actress detects similarity with Nancy Drew|date=December 13, 2002|agency=Associated Press}}</ref>
