grrrr... i missed the first half hour or so too! I started watchin when they broke into the Tri-Pi House, so i really didn't know what was going on. One thing REALLY bothered me though, why was she so ANTI-NED, and what was the end result w/ the cute detective? (i know Nancy's relationships are never the focus, but then why do they even bother to bring it up?)

Fun Fact-- the sorority house scenes were filmed at University of Southern California. The house is the ADPi house, and (I believe) SAE! ADPi had to get special permission to have the house filmed, but I'm glad the international grand president gave the thumbs-up-- it is such a beautiful house!

I know one of the houses it was filmed at was AXO...my friend was in her new member period there when they were doing it.

Hi! As an ADPi at USC, I can certify that Nancy Drew was filmed at the ADPi, SAE, and AChiO houses. They used SAE and ADPi for exterior shots and AChiO for some interior shots. The USC greek system can be seen in many different movies. The movie Pumpkin was also filmed at ADPi and AChiO and Sorority Boys was filmed at ADPi, SAE, and PIKE. An episode of the Jamie Kennedy experiment was filmed at the architechture fraternity. The show Beyond has been filmed in several of the houses on the row. There are lots of other movies, I can't think of what the other houses have done, but the USC row is pretty famous! When they were filming Sorority Boys, they told us that it is easy to use SAE and ADPi together because are mascots and colors are the same, it is easy to combine the houses and get a lot of different shots. It's funny too, because during the filming, Barry Watson had to pretend to be sleeping in my big's bed! He (and the production crew) are the only men that were ever allowed to go upstairs in our house!

This was quite possibly the worst adaptation of a book I've ever seen. I was a big ND fan growing up, and I'm appalled at what they did to such a great series.
It was cool to see the shots of USC, but the story was terrible and I thought all the characters were annoying and unlikeable.
Did you all think they did a good job?
