@Jude Fenwick Uh, lots of people are shy and have a hard time finding instant connection and repartee? Plus their comment was pretty innocuous for you to give such a weird insult. All they were doing was praising the Niles & Fran relationship.
One of the main things that I admire about Fran? She NEVER tried taking Sarah's place. Instead, she acknowledged how Sarah was Maxwell's first love and understood that she was the biological mother of Maggie, Brighton, and Gracie. Not once did she EVER try filling Sarah's shoes. Fran respected her memory and kept being herself around the family. Then, when she officially became involved with Maxwell, she STILL didn't try overcoming Sarah. Fran was a respectful woman! 😊
true, which made the episode where Max talked to Sarah's ghost touching because of how Sarah said that she specifically picked Fran because of how she is and how she knows Fran is what needed in their home.
No to mention in the episode “Sara’s parents” Maggie, Brighton and Gracie told their grandparents that Fran always made sure they never forget their deceased mother by watching old videos of her whenever they missed her and lighting a Yahrzeit candle on her birthday to commemorate her soul.
Niles liked her immed. He knew she was the medicine the family needed. He was key to integrating her into the household; had he opposed her she'd have been quickly sabotaged and gone.
@@TheWonTrueDragon Its kinda pathetic that you talk about it like its real or like it matters in any way. Talking about shit, sorry I dumped you but I can't take you with me.
Fran did wonders with Maxwell's children. She didn't fall for Brighton's tricks and later knew how to give tough love. Plus, she genuinely took interest in the children and gave them the care and affection they were seriously lacking since their mother died.
Can we just appreciate how vital Niles has been right from the beginning? If it wasn’t for him, if he had somehow disliked Fran, she would have never last in that house
I binged watched ALL the episodes of The Nanny and I must confess I almost cried of sadness in the last episode. It was so much fun and I laughed hard sometimes at the jokes and the punts thrown by everybody... what a ride it was watching The Nanny. Sitcoms like this one are a non-existent thing in today's television and I miss that.
I always cry when they play The Way We Were & show scenes from past. That was the perfect song. I also think about how Fran & Peter were going through a breakup around this time.
@@SunflowerFromDeath I understood Aries (the zodiac sign)... and i was thinking that most Aries people i know sure have a personality, so i was still confused HAHA
I liked how Fran & Niles were friends and not enemies. Most sitcoms would have made them foes with Niles always trying to get rid of Fran. Instead he was always trying get rid or put down Miss. Babcock.
One of the things I liked most about this show was how they not only accepted Fran, but they also put up with her whole family. Sylvia and Yetta mostly😄
One thing I really loved about the show is that despite Maxwell clearly crushing over her in the first season he never just objectified her like here he didn't want to hire her just for her looks, he was actually concerned about his children and never even thought it could be a flirt. Fran always been the nanny because she was surprisingly competent and basically a good mother.
To address the set change: This is the pilot episode, so the set was a little different. When a pilot is screened by the network, they critique everything: Actors, story, set, and give suggestions. So, it isn't uncommon for a set to change thanks to those suggestions - even after the network approves the series.
The set and set decoration is often changed, as well, to improve the flow, eliminate stubborn shadows and any blocked camera angles, provide more obvious marks for the actors to hit, and allow a camera to traverse the set where needed (as: for "following" shots and the occasional over-the-shoulder view). A pilot is one thing, but once the show gets picked up the technical folks get serious about what will make their jobs easier week to week and give them maximum flexibility.
That happened a lot in older sitcoms. It doesn't really happen anymore. They mostly re-film the pilots today so maybe that's why. Also some shows didn't change their set until the 2nd season as if nothing happened, like Fresh Prince.
It's insane how this went from a simple encounter into someone that the Sheffields desperately needed. Not only that but the relationship between Max and Fran has helped Fran overcome her own issues too. XD
Exactly! Fran was there to provide Maggie, Brighton, and Gracie with love, attention, and advice whenever Maxwell was too busy with work. She took care of them like a mother would ... and one of the things that I admire the most about Fran was that she NEVER tried taking Sarah's place. She understood that Sarah was Maxwell's first love and that she was the biological mother of the children. She never tried filling Sarah's shoes, but respected her memory and continued being her own self around the family. 😊
Indeed, plus she declared that she needed Niles and Maxwell to both drop their anchors in her bum bay while she honked like a fog horn in that episode.
I always loved this show as a kid. And Från was amazing as an actress and a beautiful woman. And she was 36 here and he was 38 and they were such a great couple.
@@bowtieguy85but then he went bald as a teenager (series kept trying to hide it) and he couldn't quite make the jump from child actor to adolescent actor.
I can tell you now if Niles didnt like Fran, that door would have been shut in her face without a second thought😅 His expression to Mr Sheffield was " are you kidding me? Are you just gonna let her go?😂
I cracked with "their trust funds" 😂😂😂😂😂 when I was a child I watched this subbed, and even though they made an awesome job, in English is just way funnier!😂😂😂
Yes, I remembered in 1993 when their house was different. Probably moved to change scenery. Fran’s make up was changed too. And Maxwell’s outfits, I wore in 90’s and I still have a blue coat and beige pants in different size too.
Honestly it's such a classic I don't think it should be rebooted I think it should just live as it is maybe if they could do a movie then I would love to watch the movie version of this sort of 20 years in the future but it has to have the original cast otherwise I'm not watching it I don't want a reboot with new cast
Love the show...! NOSTALGIC! It reminds me with highschool... when the show reruns we keep talking about it ! Haha .... who else missing the good ol' 90s..... miss it painfully
The Nanny, The Cosby Show and the Fresh Prince were all great family shows and had great comedy and "no spoiled brats", loved all the kids/teenagers on these shows.
No matter how many times I see Episode 1 and the future episodes, I can't stop starring at the house background and how the changed the set after this. It keeps baffling me.
Why would it baffle you? They made a decision to make the set more neutral, and for whatever reason they changed the house entrance. How much time and energy have you wasted ??
Niles has a sixth sense for entertainment possibilities. So he instantly recognises how interesting this houshold can get with this new element added to it.
If want to see different and are a fan of Buffy, find the unaired pilot. The library is, well actually I wish they would have kept that, it was way different. And Willow was played by a completely different actress, like Charmed (original).
Am I the only one who doesn't agree with this,then?I mean,after watching his film Escape(2015) alongside Owen Wilson,and plenty of Mamma Mia!trailer and Watchmojo footage,I have to say that no,I don't see any resemblance whatsoever.
Can we just talk about how Niles and Fran got along instantly? Like damn that's a friendship that needs more recognition
"..Twenty-nine..!" XD
@@desgowlron5010 "Don't start with me Niles"😂

empowered women does not need to erase other people
@@truckie0710 Does anyone remember the episode's title where that happens- I always thought that I remembered that wrongly...
Instead, she wanted them to always remember Sarah and recognize how imporant she is for the family. Indeed, an amazing character.
Niles liked her immed. He knew she was the medicine the family needed. He was key to integrating her into the household; had he opposed her she'd have been quickly sabotaged and gone.
He also knew that the only other candidate was C.C. and he wasn't going to let that happen.

Fran had the most gorgeous outfits on this show
Because she was a knock out.
But at the time her style - outfits, hair and makeup - looked very tacky and over the top. Fashion tastes have changed...
Niles: 29 😏?
Fran: Don’t start with me Niles
Niles is the only one who can get away with that lmao 🤣
I just love the look on Maxwell's face when he hears her laugh for the first time!
Yeah that key moment is so underrated! 😆
80s-90s never forgotten. Magical decades.
If you were comfortable and born in the peaceful countries, yes
@@falconeshield Thanks, Ms. Obvious

They was evil lil bastards he shouldve married larry david
You can tell Niles was already shipping it.
She’s so iconic. Harley Quinn WANTS to be her
Man Harley Quinn is just one of these great character that need serious casting effort.
Well arleen sorkin based Harley off of a myriad of family memebers. Like Fran Drescher.
It' funny cause both the nanny and Harley Quinn came out around the same time.

Somehow the stars aligned and everything just clicked with this show. Story, characters, chemistry.
I loved how she was with the kids she treated them like her own and there was lots of love there !
Fran: You won't regret it.
Maxwell: Somehow I'm rather sure I will.
Yeah right and many moons later they were considered to be a couple.
Omg right lol
😂😂 Absolutely
"Considered to be" a couple? Didn't they end up marrying?

The beauty of the Nanny was that from the first episode Niles realised 'we need her in our life'.
Also:"I ship them!"
Indeed, plus she declared that she needed Niles and Maxwell to both drop their anchors in her bum bay while she honked like a fog horn in that episode.
You can really see how Fran helped everyone loosen up during the series. Max especially.
I love Fran, she is very sweet, always upbeat, I loved the show.
I wish this show was on Netflix.

The box set wasn't very expensive on Amazon. Not sure how much it's going for now, but I'm glad I purchased it.
Even 15 years from now, this show still resonates on me
Im 52 and when I feel depressed I see The nanny and everything changes to positive.
Can someone please appreciate the smirk look on Niles face when he says '29'....😁😂🙏
EVERYTHING is to be appreciated about Niles!;-] 😎
I always loved this show as a kid. And Från was amazing as an actress and a beautiful woman. And she was 36 here and he was 38 and they were such a great couple.
the girl's face when she says: "you have no idea how complicated i am" XD
Cos her well-used cooze was dripping wet.
They have a different set up on the first episode. Because the door and the stairs on the next episodes were on the right side.
There are two doors
@@aminatasaidubangura3834 maybe the door ur saying is the kitchen door or the back door.
It was the Show pilot that’s why.
How the hell did I never notice this? 😂 it’s my favorite show
Good eye. I never would have caught that.
2:04 I love how they're all standing in the same manner, and it looks so stiff. Perfect visual representation of the household before Fran.
That’s how she became the naaaaannnnyyyyy! ♥️
Fran wasn't wrong though, Maggie was gorgeous and she was just shy
When I watched the show on TV I used to have a crush on Maggie and I was sorry she had little screentime compared to other characters.
Yeah, she lost her shyness after I played six pack stink finger with her under the bleachers after cheerleading practice.
Autumn,you are absolutely right.This willful respect for mr.sheffield's wife was present throughout the entire show.
3:20 “I need a nanny this weekend!” *hangs up immediately*
never in his wildest dreams did Sheffield think he was hugging his future wife even after he took 'I love you' back
madeline zima was so cute !!🥰😍😁
She didn't grow up too bad either.

I'm so happy that they changed the hallway and front door to the other side. The new hallway is way more brighter and open
“Do you have a pen?”😄😄😄
Notice how he looked at her when laugh? Thar was it. Just like that.
Also, the queen mother joke was nice
Yes, I remembered in 1993 when their house was different. Probably moved to change scenery. Fran’s make up was changed too. And Maxwell’s outfits, I wore in 90’s and I still have a blue coat and beige pants in different size too.
Strange that The Nanny is one of those shows you totally think would have gotten rebooted by now and it has not yet.
It would be incredibly hard to replace Fran.
@@lolwut6635 Fran would have to approve it as one of the creators of the original show.
It kind of did.
There’s a show on Disney called Jessie.
It’s basically the Disney version of this.
I thought a reboot was already announced? Also Fran considered a remake once she saw cardi b

🤣👌🏼
The beginning of an awesome journey. 🥰
let's go for a remake of the nanny
So many years and still so funny
*THIS WILL FOREVERMORE BE THE BEST 90s show ever 😭 max + Fran = FOREVER*
Fran is now the president of screen actors guild, doing great.
Used to watch this show when it first came out on greek tv always loved it
Remember the days when we actually had to wait a whole week during a specific time slot to watch shows ..... thank god for streaming
She reminds me of Janice from Friends :)
Oh no no. Pls don’t compare those lol
It wasn’t a crossover, but the actress did guest star. They wore similar outfits and were constantly mistaken for the other in the episode lol
Take it back !!
Janice was modelled after Fran lmao
I had said the same on another video. The voice is uncannily similar.
Love the show...! NOSTALGIC! It reminds me with highschool... when the show reruns we keep talking about it ! Haha .... who else missing the good ol' 90s..... miss it painfully
fran's outfits are always extraordinary and everything suits him so well
Benjamin Salisbury was very underrated as an actor.
The Nanny, The Cosby Show and the Fresh Prince were all great family shows and had great comedy and "no spoiled brats", loved all the kids/teenagers on these shows.
I sure miss that show
Minute 1:11, when he looks at her, is the moment he fell in love.
Great chemistry, right from the beginning.
The good ol'days! I would come back from school, do my homeworks and I would watch it before going to bed. Damn, such a long time!
Ooh! The Sound of Music reference said by Fran! Love her!
i wish this show was on netflix
They need to put more shows like this on Netflix
Is in prime video tho🥰
Theyre about to start streaming it on HBO+
2024- Its on Peacock
This is 1 of my fave episodes!!
I miss this genius of a show ♥️♥️♥️
I like when NILLS SAY TWENTY NINE😂
Who else bought the DVD collection but hasn't watched the final episodes deliberately because they didn't want this good thing to end???
Jewish Queen
No matter how many times I see Episode 1 and the future episodes, I can't stop starring at the house background and how the changed the set after this. It keeps baffling me.
Why would it baffle you? They made a decision to make the set more neutral, and for whatever reason they changed the house entrance. How much time and energy have you wasted ??
I love her make up, she looks gorgeuos ,her skin is mate and flawless!!!!!!!
Ever think about the reason Niles was so supportive of Fran?
Dammit Jim,
I'm a butler not a nanny!
Also because CC will hate her
Fran and her show may never have reached the heights of Lucille Ball bull she was damn close
She is very much like Lucy and that is a massive compliment.
I never cared for I Love Lucy ... but loved The Nanny!!
Niles has a sixth sense for entertainment possibilities. So he instantly recognises how interesting this houshold can get with this new element added to it.
This is such a cute series! Love it ❤️
Todd Oldham designed some quirky cute outfits that she wore.
Man, they all went from stiff and grey to finding their own shining future.
This scene was pure comedic gold
Damn Fran Drescher was gorgeous.
Es la mejor telenovela de todos los tiempos!! 😃😍💋
Love how they must have remodeled the place and put the entrance on the other side of the house!
Love this show 😂❤️
Fran’s outfits>>>>>
Notice in this pilot episode that the Maxwell's white hair hasn't appeared yet till Fran works regular in their house.
Beacause it came with her
I just realized Fran is left handed!
She is a stunner.
Ugh I can never get over how he looks at her at 1:11🥰
Yeah I know. I’m surprised more people haven’t picked up on that look. He was definitely into her.
Right. For me that's the moment he fell in love 😍
“I thought she had a cold” 😂😂😂
She’s stunning
Brilliant. Thanks. David
I LOVED this show!!!
The first episode is also the best of the whole series.
iconic TV show
I’ve always noticed, but never understood why the layout of the house here is vastly different compared to the rest of the series?
Happens a lot with series pilots.
Set design is one of the things critiqued during a pilot screening. While the network might like the show, suggestions on design are also made.
I also wondered but this is the Pilot Episode. Kinda like just a Test Episode.
If want to see different and are a fan of Buffy, find the unaired pilot. The library is, well actually I wish they would have kept that, it was way different. And Willow was played by a completely different actress, like Charmed (original).
I've always thought the dad looked like a dollar store version of Pierce Brosnan Lol
Actually there is a running gag throughout the series about him looking like Pierce Brosnan. Lol
@@kerriethompson2073 Oh wow, I've never watched the show in its entiretly, just bits and pieces lol Must've missed that
