Drew - Passed on by CBS; Being Shopped Elsewhere

May 14, 2016

Nancy Drew's return to TV has been delayed.

CBS has passed on drama pilot Drew, sources tell The Hollywood Reporter, with producers CBS Television Studios now shopping the drama elsewhere.

Described as a contemporary take on the character from the iconic Nancy Drew book series, CBS' drama pilot focused on Nancy (Person of Interest's Sarah Shahi), now in her 30s and a detective for the NYPD where she investigated and solved crimes using her uncanny observational skills, all while navigating the complexities of life in a modern world.

Sources say Drew, which co-starred Anthony Edwards and Vanessa Ferlito, did not come in as strong as the network would have hoped. Multiple industry observers noted that it was a toss-up between Katherine Heigl legal drama Doubt and Drew for the remaining drama slot at the network.
