The-Nanny

Can you hear that laugh? America was in for a shock when Fran Drescher arrived in primetime. Sure she had little roles including on the dance floor with John Travolta in Saturday Night Fever. But when she took over watching the kids on The Nanny, her distinctive laugh became the sound of TV immortality. Now all six seasons of childcare hilarity are coming from Shout! Factory on May 26. The Nanny: The Complete Series will arrive weeks sooner for those who order it directly from their website. The series also gave us Madeline Zima before her shocking punch moment on Californication. Here’s the press release from Shout! Factory:

That flashy girl from Flushing with the heart of an angel (and the voice of a slighty more nasal angel) is here at last in The Nanny: The Complete Series. Starring the one and only Fran Drescher in her signature role, The Nanny charmed television audiences throughout its six-season network run. Detailing the comic misadventures of the sweet and sassy Fran Fine (Drescher), her sophisticated employer, Broadway producer Mr. Sheffield (Charles Shaugnessy), his boisterous brood (Nicholle Tom, Benjamin Salisbury and Madeline Zima) and his wisecracking staff (Lauren Lane and Daniel Davis), each hilarious episode of The Nanny will now be available, many on DVD for the first time.

Both an homage to and a subversive take on the classic comedies of the Baby Boomer generation and featuring an unbelievably bright roster of hilarious guest stars, The Nanny is a delightful addition to your television collection – finally available in a complete series collection from your favorite video babysitter, Shout! Factory.
