Fran Drescher, Charles Shaughnessy, Daniel Davis, Lauren Lane, Nicholle Tom, Benjamin Salisbury, Madeline Zima, and Renee Taylor star in this hilarious sitcom about the nanny with the face from Vogue and the voice from Queens. This DVD collection includes all 24 episodes from the first season of this hilarious show. Fran Drescher stars in her defining role as street-smart Fran Fine, a diva down-on-her-luck who finds herself hired for a job she never even applied for! Now, she's the nanny for a rich, sophisticated family in Manhattan, and when this blue-collar girl from the block moves in with the blue blood, widowed Broadway producer and his three children, comedy is red hot!
Editor's Note
Television's most loveable nanny is also the most anachronistic. Fran Drescher stars as Fran Fine, a Queens girl through and through, with a supermodel face, gorgeous figure, flashy taste in apparel, and an enormous heart. After getting fired from her job at a bridal shop owned by the boyfriend who just dumped her, Fran is at a loss for what to do next. Selling cosmetics door to door, she shows up at Maxwell Sheffield's Park Avenue door at just the right time; recently widowed, Maxwell is desperate to find a nanny for his three children, and invites Fran to have a go. Fran accepts, bringing not only her blue-collar sensibilities and eccentric cast of acquaintances into the upscale Sheffield home, but a new warmth as well, turning the troubled family into a happy, healthy one. Soon, the growing attraction between Fran and Maxwell also becomes apparent, which causes limitless agony for Maxwell's business partner C.C., who carries a not-so-secret flame for the very eligible bachelor. The episodes from the first season are collected here in their entirety, including the pilot, "Imaginary Friend," "A plot for Nanny," and "Schlepped Away."
