It has been almost 27 years since the cast of The Nanny had a table read for their pilot episode, and they recently reunited to read it again.
Fran Drescher (Fran Fine), Charles Shaughnessy (Maxwell Sheffield), Lauren Lane (C.C. Babcock), Daniel David (Niles), Nicholle Tom (Maggie Sheffield), Benjamin Salisbury (Brighton Sheffield), Madeline Zima (Grace Sheffield), Renee Taylor (Sylvia Fine), and Rachel Chagall (Val Toriello), all got on Zoom and recorded themselves reading the script.
Today, Sony Pictures posted it on YouTube, and I felt like I was watching the pilot episode for the millionth time. It was a nice treat during these dark, gloomy times.
Plus, it was so nice to see them again. The actors all aged well. Although it was weird to see the kids read the parts now that they are adults. Tom really gave it her all! They all did, and that is what made it so much fun. Hopefully, they will be back with another all-new old episode next week, like the old days. I would tune in every week for this.
If they can’t or won’t do it again, then what other shows would you like to see do this? What about Head of the Class, That ’70s Show, Two and a Half Men, Friends, Family Matters, Married with…Children, Fresh Prince of Bel-Air, Queer As Folk, what else?
