she was 29 and she was at her parents' place? Do you know how refreshing that is? for once a character that doesn't have it together but has enough confidence to go for it.
Fran was definitely not 29, a running joke in the series is that we never find out her actual age. The closest we ever came was Sylvia confirming that Fran is over 35. In real life, Fran Drescher and Charles Shaunnesy (Maxwell) are only a couple of years apart, so I assume Fran is around the same age in the show.
The fact that the kids including Sheffield were all sad and miserable until Fran came along and changed their lives for the better. Even Niles. I just loved how she came in and brightened everyone's hearts.

I love how she really did invest in the kids, they weren't just a plot device for her to spend more time with their dad, she really and truly cared about how they were doing and making them feel included and heard. She wasn't there for the nanny position but she was a mom from the start.
@@kylewilkins6149 You have to remember that Maxwell was still grieving from the loss of Sara, which undoubtedly affected all aspects of his life -including his ability to care for his children - and although wealthier than many widowers, he still had to work and make a living.
They changed the layout of the first floor in the actual series so the pilot was not perfect ;) But seriously, not only did no one get replaced, they manage to hide CC's pregnancy which allowed them not changed CC's personality. Definitely one of my favorite show of the era which is still a bit surprising to me since I know I was not in the target demographic. I was in my mid twenties to early thirties when this show first aired and I'm pretty sure no writer of the show every lost sleep over how to get more black dudes in their late 20s to watch the show:)
I feel like you can almost see Nile's thought process. "She's a strange looking Nanny, but oh well," to "At least I'll get some entertainment before she goes," to "Please let her stay just so it annoys CC."
The thing I always loved about Fran was how people tried to put her down because of her "class" and it always just rolls right off whether she intentionally ignored it or it went over her head and she always absolutely stops the person trying to put her down... it's lovely and refreshing and a real testament to her confidence
I love how Niles just straight up loves her right away and says in this episode, "Just what you needed". He truly knows what is best for the family than anyone else
@@Momo-po5tn Margot Robbie sounds a little bit like this and the Animated Harley also sounds like this. The only difference is that Fran has a nasally voice personality.
No shame in it. It's actually common and seen as honourable in some cultures. In Mexico, for example, you can have up to four generations living in the one place.
@@samalvey8168 yhea. My parents lived with my dad's parents for a while until we moved out when I was 15. And then my brother moved out a week ago, and he's 26.
The reason why CC hated Fran was that the moment Fran walked in, Max lost all interest in C.C. You see it all happen at the party, then C.C. gloating during the fight about Maggie’s kiss.
22:06 "GET AWAY FROM THAT LIMO, NOBODY DIED, THERE'S NO VACANCIES !!", What I love about Fran, aside from her looks, is how street smart she is. She never took her education seriously but she KNOWS how to deal with the real world.
Isn’t it a wonderful world that we can have things like this to remind of us of those we love? It’s like they never truly leave because their memories are forever tied to these little things.
You also didn't see that other office set again after the Pilot, where Maxwell finds Maggie kissing Eddie, and later on when Niles tells him that Fran is actually what he needed.
@Devonte Huntley Again, you're clearly terrible at reading between the lines. But, if it makes you happy to believe what you believe, then keep believing it.
The first poignant thing I noticed about the Pilot is that Fran doesn't cry when Danny dumps/fires her after 3 years. But she cries when Mr Sheffield fires her after just one day
When you’re Gen Z and realize Jessie was pretty much a kids version of The Nanny. You could say “a woman goes to Manhattan to find a better life, and ends up becoming the nanny for a rich family’s wacky children, living with them and their know-it-all butler” and it would literally describe both shows.
I loved how Fran stood up to Mr. Sheffield after he told Maggie to go to her room. After only working there a few days, Niles saw the impact Fran had on Mr. Sheffield and his kids. Glad he humbled himself to ask her to return to work.
I genuinely think this is a perfect pilot. All the main cast, and even some side characters like Val and Sylvia, get well established, we know their personalities and relationships with the other characters, pretty much nothing about them got retconned moving forward like many sitcoms did. We got a perfect blend of comedy and serious, and it set up the dynamic for the whole show.
I love how she is more upset after spending less than one weekend with the children and being fired than she was when her boyfriend of 3 years broke up with her AND fired her. It just goes to show how much deeper her relationship with them was.
I'm just smiling all the way through this. Fran Fine was so brash with a good outlook on life that her mere presence helped the kids right from the start.
I wonder if Fran never showed up would Max have married CC. They should have done an episode ala It’s A Wonderful Life where we see an alternate universe where Tony never dumped Fran and never became the nanny.
@@h193013 from their body language throughout this episode it looks like they were getting pretty close to dating. Between the way they talked about her at breakfast, then her massaging his shoulders, him giving her flirty compliments on her appearance at the party. All of which stopped in an instant when he saw the red dress, and C.C.’s immediate jealousy in response.
Usually there's always adjustments to the characters after a pilot. But this pilot is just like any other future episode. Perfect first episode. Fran is beautiful and hilarious. Love this show.
As a HR professional, she could have sued him for wrongful termination since he freely admitted he was firing her so he could hire his new girlfriend. Just saying...lol

It’s pretty common for shows to use already existing sets from old shows in the pilot, then build a specific set if the show gets picked up. Why spend the time and money to build a full set for a pilot, when most shows never get past the pilot.
@@theallancb I didn’t recognize the salon set from anywhere else, but I’m pretty sure The Nanny’s set for it’s pilot was originally the Full House set, at least the downstairs.
EZzZY · yeah I can understand that. I always really liked her laugh and voice even though most people seem to agree that it’s a bit... annoying. Have you ever seen the Conan O’Brien interview she did when they brought out goats and her laughing was pretty close to the noises the goats were making?
Helen F. I gotta say C.C. is my third favorite. She is definitely a “wasp” type personality but the show gave her more meaning and depth than just an outright snooty person.
Rose Treiger If Netflix can pay Schumer and Chapelle upwards of 50million for a comedy special, they could surely pay Drescher and her ex a reasonable amount to stream their old show for few years.
The best part of this is how Niles knew that Fran was just what the family needed from the get go. Between their banter when Fran said she was 29 towards the beginning and then telling Mr. Sheffield that Fran was what they'd been needing near the end of the episode, you could see the platonic chemistry between him and Fran and I love that so much about this episode!
I think this pilot was one of the best examples of how to set up a show from the get go Every character is established with their personality and character traits right away and in some cases with only a few scenes needing to do so We get to know who C.C babcock is, Who Niles is, and who the kids and Fran and Maxwell are in a few scenes and or a few web written situations. The conversation between Niles nd Maxwell shows their dynamic, Niles and C.C.’s duality is well placed this was a perfect pilot episode and literally set up the show and the characters quite well. I do believe that some shows do need to find themselves over the course of a few episodes, this one however, was perfect from the get go.
The show did evolve somewhat. C.C. became more of a neurotic train-wreck in subsequent episodes and season one was somewhat grounded in reality, while the rest of the seasons were more satirical and absurdist.
@@giovannirastrelli9821 C.C. descent into neuroticism was fueled by her increasing desperation for Maxwell’s interest. The more involved Fran and Maxwell got, the worse she got, until she broke completely when they got engaged.
13:00 ever pragmatic and practical, the nanny teaches wisdom all the live-long day... "...be nice... someday your father will be old & sick... You're gonna want him to live with her". I absolutely love her and I never get bored watching these episodes over and over again... and again.
When she came downstairs in that red dress that was the moment not only Sheffield fell in love with her but all of America did. That moment at 14:20...♥️
I remember watching this and Married With Children every morning getting ready for middle school with my mom and little brother in my mom’s room in 2010
The Nanny is one of the benchmark tv shows when we talk about the 90s! This is one of those shows that I can always throw now and truly enjoy like the episode I'm watching is a brand new one.Fran is so fine, she has pure authentic beauty from that era. Pure nostalgia!
It's amazing how Fran started out by initially wanting to sell makeup, only to become the family's nanny and then Maxwell's wife and the kids' stepmother.
I've got about 60 episodes of The Nanny saved to my DVR for the last year and a half. I don't need to watch the pilot (seen a million times, hello baby James Marsden! 😆). I just wanted to make sure to come here and like it and support y'all. 🤗
I love this show....Fran was absolutely gorgeous I loved the way she dressed. She truly showed you can be slim and have a figure not the fake figures of today but natural shape. God I wish I could get ahold of her wardrobe from the show..... I would kill it...
I also love how she was fully aware people judged her for being colorful/robust but she just didn’t let it phase her. It was that mind set that is what the family needed and why I think Niles encouraged Maxwell to hire her back. His family was so obsessed with tradition/appearances that it was isolating his children. Fran and her family are so loving/honest (despite being opposite of Maxwell’s family) and it shows how her influence positively affected each of the kids over the show.

@@staciecarrel4492 like the episode in the hair salon that was kinda like a "pilot" for a spin off. To bad that episode sucked 🤣
@@theallancb I didn’t recognize the salon set from anywhere else, but I’m pretty sure The Nanny’s set for it’s pilot was originally the Full House set, at least the downstairs.
this pilot is wayy better that the whole NETFLIX catalog nowadays
Honestly I love CC’s style so much, she looks amazing in her party outfit
Story & Producer Fran Drescher??
Wow, never realized that she was so accomplished professionally
Fran was my ultimate childhood crush (along with Elvira). Her and Niles were definitely my favorite characters of the show.
You like dark hair, pale skin and red lips.
EZzZY · yeah I can understand that. I always really liked her laugh and voice even though most people seem to agree that it’s a bit... annoying. Have you ever seen the Conan O’Brien interview she did when they brought out goats and her laughing was pretty close to the noises the goats were making?
Agreed. She was a huge crush of mine as a kid, too. And yeah, Niles was a treasure. His rivalry with CC was one of the greatest parts of the show!
I loved niles and cece going at it lol
Helen F. I gotta say C.C. is my third favorite. She is definitely a “wasp” type personality but the show gave her more meaning and depth than just an outright snooty person.
Knowing the horror she went through not that long before creating this show is mind blowing.
Horror?
It's too horrible to write here, just look up Fran Drescher house intruder/assault
Man, the difference in Fran's reaction to Danny dumping and firing her after 3 years vs. Maxwell firing her after a single day is so telling.
Please upload all the seasons!! They're not available to stream anywhere, it's a tragedy!
They used to all be available to watch in well enough def a few years back.
There on TV at night on cozi 4 episodes back to back and also logo channel
@Rose Treiger they should just wait until they can get monetized then use KRplus

If Netflix can pay Schumer and Chapelle upwards of 50million for a comedy special, they could surely pay Drescher and her ex a reasonable amount to stream their old show for few years.
I remember it being on Netflix once upon a time
The best part of this is how Niles knew that Fran was just what the family needed from the get go. Between their banter when Fran said she was 29 towards the beginning and then telling Mr. Sheffield that Fran was what they'd been needing near the end of the episode, you could see the platonic chemistry between him and Fran and I love that so much about this episode!
"Ma Pack my things, he wants me back" "Smile". Priceless!!!! 😂
I love how Daniel Davis, aka Niles, is from Arkansas and this isn't his real accent. He's so talented.
I think this pilot was one of the best examples of how to set up a show from the get go
Every character is established with their personality and character traits right away and in some cases with only a few scenes needing to do so
We get to know who C.C babcock is, Who Niles is, and who the kids and Fran and Maxwell are in a few scenes and or a few web written situations.
The conversation between Niles nd Maxwell shows their dynamic, Niles and C.C.’s duality is well placed
this was a perfect pilot episode and literally set up the show and the characters quite well.
I do believe that some shows do need to find themselves over the course of a few episodes, this one however, was perfect from the get go.
The show did evolve somewhat. C.C. became more of a neurotic train-wreck in subsequent episodes and season one was somewhat grounded in reality, while the rest of the seasons were more satirical and absurdist.
Agreed! Well said. Possibly the best pilot of a hit sitcom.
@@giovannirastrelli9821 C.C. descent into neuroticism was fueled by her increasing desperation for Maxwell’s interest. The more involved Fran and Maxwell got, the worse she got, until she broke completely when they got engaged.
Well said 👍
I looooove FRAN!
Defending Maggie was the sweetest thing. So motherly :)
13:00 ever pragmatic and practical, the nanny teaches wisdom all the live-long day... "...be nice... someday your father will be old & sick... You're gonna want him to live with her".
I absolutely love her and I never get bored watching these episodes over and over again... and again.
It's now November 2022 and this comedy is still very funny. I love Niles, he's my favorite.
Im watching now too !
Anyone else love the theme song and Intro
Love the intro. It has the jazzy broadway music appeal to it.
Love it!
Me its so sassy and 90s
And to think the creator of the song hated it
That's my jam!
I had forgotten how hilarious this show was! 😄 these writers were ahead of their time
When she came downstairs in that red dress that was the moment not only Sheffield fell in love with her but all of America did. That moment at 14:20...♥️
She would never imagine her life was set to change completely after walking in that door....
She's charming, and beautiful, and has a way of dealing with kids. That's why she stayed.
The fashion in this show is so iconic! 😍😍😍😍
CC’s reaction to first seeing Fran was priceless.
Love The Nanny. It's a simple sitcom that everyone can understand even young kids like me at that time. It's warmth and lovely.
I’ve always loved how she taught them how to be a loving fun family
Back when her voice was deeper and less nasally.
edit: omg James Marsden is in this AHHHHHHH
Watch her guest appearance on Silver Spoons as Kate's friend Annie in "Marry Me Kate". Her voice was even less nasal.
Wait that guy who kissed Maggie is James Mars den? Woah
Who could imagine this would be such a success and 90's iconic thing? Just Fran Drescher! It was a well builted breeze.
No cell phones, what a wonderful world we lived in.
The clear plastic covers for the furniture. My mom's family did that.
I honestly thought it was a Hispanic thing lol
I remember watching this and Married With Children every morning getting ready for middle school with my mom and little brother in my mom’s room in 2010
Dang, your username really fooled me
That sounds lovely
The Nanny is one of the benchmark tv shows when we talk about the 90s! This is one of those shows that I can always throw now and truly enjoy like the episode I'm watching is a brand new one.Fran is so fine, she has pure authentic beauty from that era. Pure nostalgia!
Niles: 29
Fran: Don't start with me Niles.
The beginning of a beautiful friendship.
They are so lived in, in their characters right from the pilot itself. One of the many reasons that it was such a hit.
Her style is unmatched 👏👌
I love these shows, it brings me back to the time when the world wasn't so cruel.
It's amazing how Fran started out by initially wanting to sell makeup, only to become the family's nanny and then Maxwell's wife and the kids' stepmother.
I've got about 60 episodes of The Nanny saved to my DVR for the last year and a half. I don't need to watch the pilot (seen a million times, hello baby James Marsden! 😆). I just wanted to make sure to come here and like it and support y'all. 🤗
I'm like an addict.. i.. i need more episodes. And i can watch all the ads you throw in there. PLease. It's what the people want.
Yea right around the time Fran & Maxwell get engaged/married. I think they said she went to the nut house when she gave birth
The way he looks at her at 5:02 after she laughs. ❤
Fran was like a mother to them since the beginning ❤
“Yeah I haven’t even song climb every mountain yet “ 🤣😂🤣
I love this show....Fran was absolutely gorgeous I loved the way she dressed. She truly showed you can be slim and have a figure not the fake figures of today but natural shape. God I wish I could get ahold of her wardrobe from the show..... I would kill it...
I also love how she was fully aware people judged her for being colorful/robust but she just didn’t let it phase her. It was that mind set that is what the family needed and why I think Niles encouraged Maxwell to hire her back. His family was so obsessed with tradition/appearances that it was isolating his children. Fran and her family are so loving/honest (despite being opposite of Maxwell’s family) and it shows how her influence positively affected each of the kids over the show.
The Watermelon Jacket is everything
my plan is to look like her gran when im old . THATS THE STYLE!!
I never get tired of watching Nanny and her life. Absolutely great to watch it again after several years.
Scenes in "The Nanny" like at 20:47 became officially known as "Not the sandwich" scenes to the writers and actors :)
