As of last year, a Nancy Drew series whose pilot had been rejected by CBS was in development at NBC.

Also (and they flopped) the 1990s (in Canada, I believe.)

And Nancy Drew had an ABC TV movie intended to launch a series in 2002, but no series emerged.

And there was a 2007 Nancy Drew movie.

So, it's not exactly a property that's been ignored, even if there hasn't been much success with it since the 1970s.
