Years ago, Fran Drescher's teacher told her she'd never make it as an actress unless she changed her accent. We see how that one turned out. Here's another: Fran's real-life sister is a nurse, and people are always telling her she talks like the nanny. That's when she tells them that Fran is her sister.
@@notthedoctor8621 I agree that New Yorkers have an appealing accent. There seems to be a kind of genuine quality about it. Fran's teacher had other ideas.
@@standoutpunching2936 A studio executive told Johnny Weissmuller he'd have to change his name because it was too long to fit on a marquee. When his agent told the exec that Weissmuller was already famous by that name as an Olympic swimmer, they added swimming to the script.
Isn't that the common element? People being told they'll never "make it" and they become a huge success? I think it's high time we stopped listening to shmucks telling us what our potential is and isn't.
@@Dori9111 A running gag throughout the series is the money culture clash between Fran and The Fines and Maxwell and The Sheffields (and C.C.). Ellie Mae Clampett is a character from a 60s TV Show called "The Beverly Hillbillies" which is about a poor family from the Ozarks that strike oil on their land, get rich and move to California. Nadine's line is funny because the best example of upper class living she can think of to compare Fran to is a new money hillbilly.
I wonder why Nadine never appeared in any other episode. IIRC she was not even present at Fran's wedding, even though she was (apparently) living in New York aswell. Even Aunt Frieda had more screentime than her.
Sometimes actors aren't available. The scheduling doesn't line up. Why people in comments don't get this simple fact is beyond me. They barely used Val even as a side character. I hardly think the actress was waiting around for the show to end, to get other jobs.
@@watcherx2592 Not a good explanation. If an actor isn't available, just cast another one with a similar appearance. That's actually what the producers did with Jocelyn, Maxwell's sister. She appeared twice during the show and was played by two different actresses (Twiggy and Sophie Ward).
@@AngelusBrady Yea. And just for clarification @Mike, I was not even talking about turning Nadine into a recurring character like Sylvia, Val or Yetta. Though, I believe a sister should at least have appeared in episodes with major events (wedding, childbirth).
It's always amazing to watch 90's content and see the "fat" female characters. They're always average size and weight, but genuinely fat men arent ever considered fat.
Well most ppl weren’t as big then as they are now. So average now would have been heavy then. Even looking back at photos of my parents from the 90’s everyone was very slim.
Yeah that's when heroin chic was real popular. Even in the 2000s the media crucified actresses with average weights like Drew Barrymore and Kelly Clarkson for being "fat"
03:54 Niles The Butler: OH, NEED AN EXTRA PILLOW, SIR. Maxwell Sheffield: GOOD NIGHT, NILES? Niles The Butler: WELL, YOU KNOW, ACTUALLY, I'M NOT VERY TIRED, SIR. Maxwell Sheffield: GOOD NIGHT, NILES?
Fran was indeed Sylvia's favourite. Sylvia was so eager to see Fran having children, even though she already had 2 grandchildren from Nadine. Nadine is also a caterer, so she is busy the whole time.
@@adrianitazzimple I think it goes far beyond that, all the way to their childhood. When Fran has a flashback from her childhood, Nadine also appears, but barely speaks 2 lines. It's mainly Fran and Sylvia discussing. We can guess from this that Fran has always been Sylvia's favourite.
@@TheLuca2001 yeah, I just thought that Nadine had her own life invaded by her mother-in-law, like Maxwell with Sylvia, and that's why she never appeared again.
I love this episode. My fave scenes were when she and her sister Nadine were arguing and then Gracie and Maggie come in and Fran said hi girls, you worked out your problems lol. So funny. And the whole MY ROOM NAY!!! 😂
Nadine was the best, just like Frieda!! I never understood why they didn't use her more, she was a PERFECT addition to the crazy Fine family, also with a fittingly unbearable foghorn voice :)))
Fran was jealous because she's in love with him she simply cut to the chase & told Maxwell that Nadine was after him & if he wanted Nadine he would have pursued her after Fran told him he's a grown up ass man & C.C . spent years with Max before Fran came into the picture & nothing happened so yeah he's just not into Nadine or C.C.
@@shirleypate5084 You're right, Shirley. Nadine is pretty and voluptuous and I'm also a big C.C. fan, but Maxwell is into neither girl. Moreover, looking at all 3 candidates it's almost certain Fran would make a far better stepmom to Maxwell's kids.
You sound so bitter and jealous here lol it's a TV SHOW CHARACTER LOL but great writing tho bc yeah if he wanted Nadine or CC, he would've pursued them. He holds off on Fran cause he feels like he's cheating his late wife and kids if he lets himself fall in love.
I think IRL Fran Drescher had hurt herself and probably couldn’t take the bandages off. She makes a comment in passing in this episode about burning herself making tea.
Well in reflection after Lol. I guess I Missed out, on a Pretty Decent Program then. The Nanny. First Couple Time's I ever saw any of it? Guess It didn't Appeal too me then so I more or less Said Nah & left it at that. Thank You for Sharing the Clip though. ITs Very Cute.
I added a comment to another clip where Fran and her mom were talking about the sister and I had no idea who they were talking about. It was nice to see this clip to see who she was and from the other comments, I understand she wasn’t used much. I guess that’s why I don’t remember her.
Lol i always said atleast she waited to ask her sister if she had something going on will Maxwell 😹 Some sisters like some i unfortunately know ( not my sisters but friends sisters) they just be up up away with ya man and knowwwwwwwww that something is more than going on between them
Deat penthouse magazine, i always thougt that those stories u published are simply bogus, since the sister of our nanny stays over night................
Those purple nightgowns are everything
Fran: "Don't tell my boss I've got a body for days! He's not blind!"
That was ahead of its time
Call me stupid, but what exactly does that mean?

Her voice, not her accent. The New York accent is very desirable

Someone told the same to Conan...

I love Maxwell's room. It fits his character's personality.
'rich' is not a personality 😂
It seems to change every time I see it
@@MrKerplunk66 I beg to differ 🤣😋
@@MrKerplunk66 one of the best personalities in a man
Fran: “Nothing says lovin’ like something from the oven.” Fran always had the best lines. 😂
Thats from an early 60s cake mix ad!
"There's always room for jello!" Sophia said that to Blanche from Golden Girls when they were also after the same guy. 😬
the cheap cigar guy lol
The Nanny meets Golden Girls, yaaaas!!!
add Ab Fab and there's my holy trinity :))
@José Elias Really??
Oh that Sophia! her barbs were top notch
Doesn't Joey say this in friends as well?
They cut out the best part where Fran, Nadine and her husband were arguing in the background during Niles audition. That part always cracks me up!
That's on another clip.
That was the best!!! 😂😂😂
Ooft. The way Mr Sheffield looked at Fran’s body when she took her dressing gown off! 🤩
4:00 “You know actually I’m not very tired”
Niles wanted a 4-way 😂
Nah I think he just wanted to see where this was going. He knew nothing was gonna happen and wanted to see the reaction
Niles: Need an extra pillow Sir? 🤣🤣😃😄😄😄Love him!!!🤣🤣🤣🤣
Underrated line. :)
Oh! Need an extra pillow sir? 😎🤣
“Good night Niles.”
"You're living like Ellie Mae Clampett...". That line always cracks me up!

Interesting how we never saw more of Fran's sister. I guess Fran was Sylvia's favorite

They already had Val to play Schlemazel to Frans Schmiel. Val was more like a sister than a friend.
"Need another pillow?...I'm not very tired, you know" LOL comedy genius
I wish we would’ve seen more of her sister. She missed out on the wedding, engagement and the twins birth
double HAWTNESS and massive comedic TALENT!!
3:12 lol, Fran wore it best
🎯
Mr Sheffield thought so too 😂
Although I'm built like Nadine, I've have Fran's fashion sense and lack of cooking skills.
i feel seen
Do you have a slyvia for a mom
@@moneylover318 Yes, but her appetite is nowhere near Sylvia's.
@@kimarajamison6951 Well at least you have plenty to eat compared to the Sheffield home
@@moneylover318 LOL 😆
"Oh! Need an extra pillow, Sir?" 😂😂😂
This was my favorite episode. Love the part where they are running back and forth, while Niles is singing...
Fran broke the number one rule, don’t bring anyone new around the person you like until you seal the deal.
I love the matching bathrobes hahah
Also her sister looks like she could be related to kitty from that 70s show
Sibling Riflery... click click BOOM💥🔥☠️😂🤣😅

I never understood why they didn't use her more, she was a PERFECT addition to the crazy Fine family, also with a fittingly unbearable foghorn voice :)))
Especially at the wedding
Well they were to start even without CC. It was Fran that insisted that she be included. I guess she didn't see much potential in Nadine's character.
@PokemonSpearsAssuming the actress *wanted* to return. Who knows? Maybe they did want her back but she had no reason to come back.
Hilarious! Nadine is doing to Fran what Fran does to C.C. all the time, and the jealous Fran can't handle it. Pity we don't see more of Nadine.

This was one of the best episodes. Too bad they didn't make her a regular.
4:00 "need an extra pillow" Niles....referrin to Frans sister🤩🤣
"Need an extra pillow?" hahah 😄
As a child this show made 30 feel so old to me.
I’m like Fran, I don’t age lol
"You've got a James Bond Octopussy thing goin' on" is one I'll remember forever
I want one of those nightgowns!...
In fact I love most of Fran's wardrobe 😍
"Ooh. Do you need an extra pillow Sir"
Her sister should have done more episodes.
Niles - Oh Do you need an extra pillow sir 😎
They look nothing alike, but they're both gorgeous
Niles is the highlight of this series
"Need an extra pillow, sir?"
Actually I'm not very tired😂😛
I loved their sibling rivalry, but how did I never notice the bandages on Fran's wrist till now?!
I always wondered why it was there.
I think IRL Fran Drescher had hurt herself and probably couldn’t take the bandages off. She makes a comment in passing in this episode about burning herself making tea.
@@queenemma5823 she did, it happened at a cast schmoozing party waiting on a season 2 pick up renewal!
I thought I had seen every Nanny episode🤣... 😉
"Get Out"
I think Maxwell missed a few words "Get Out" + *Of Those Clothes*
2:25 😂 “boom”
4:00 Niles, are you implying what I think you're implying?!
I believe so yes
Nadine is so cute
Who ever is posting this little short clips can you post full episodes please
In a parrallel world Max is married to Nadine and Fran ran off with Nigel.
Umm, no.
HAAHAHAHAHAHH
I'd forgotten that Fran had a Sister!
It's too bad thy we don't get to see her again. Not even in Fran's Wedding 🤷🏽♀️
that dress though!
Fran...😍🥰😘
NILES 🤣
She looks like robbin Williams when she says "Mr. Sheffield bubby,"
What I got from this is Neil's maybe a voyeur. 😂
Good Stuff 👍🏿😀

Too bad this channel can’t upload full episodes. I notice some channels are (legally) doing that. ❤️
Download the Pluto app they have season 1 and 2 and tubi also free has 3 and 4
What episode is this? I don't remember watching this
I never saw this one. How did I miss it?

I'm watching the nanny in Tubi.
very funny the Nanny, I relly like it.

She has a sister in real life too!
@@kerriethompson2073 And her name is also Nadine. In fact, Fran's parents are named Sylvia and Morty in real life, too.

She is talking about the movie “Octopusy” starring James Bond!
Found the young person. 🤣
The line is a reference to the fact that Sheffield's actor is frequently mistaken for Pierce Brosnan, who played 007.
