Can you believe it's been 30 years since the Nanny first aired?! (30 years, 5 months, 22 days to be exact.)
Why in the world did the Nanny end?
When the Nanny came to an end after 6 years in June 1999, million viewers tuned in to say goodbye to Fran Fine (Fran Drescher). And since then, they have been itching for a reunion.
Would a Nanny reunion disappoint people?
The Nanny aired from 1993-1999 and is considered one of the most influential TV shows ever on pop culture. Although no original episodes have been shot since, it has remained a regular feature on many station's schedules. But Drescher said she's not sure if the Nanny would work today. “I don't want to see old Fran Fine,” she told a journalist (Drescher turned 66 in September). “Everyone’s going to have different vision of what the character is like, so to have that materialize is going to disappoint most people,” she added.
Still hoping for a Nanny movie?
In a recent interview, Fran Drescher said she can't imagine a Nanny reunion hitting the big screen. “I'd rather people go, ‘Oh, please! Please!’ than ‘I can't believe you did that. It was horrible.’”
Co-star Renée Taylor (who played Sylvia Fine) has also previously explained, “It would be terrible to do something and have it not be good,”. “It was so terrific ... If we did a Nanny movie and it sucked, then it would, you know, blemish it.”
What about a Nanny reboot?
Recasting the Nanny for a modern reboot. Hollywood is known for remaking remakes of films or tv series and the studios might think it would be great to bring the story back with a new set of characters.
Be it in the form of a Nanny reunion, a Nanny movie, or a Nanny reboot, if you had to start filming today, who would you cast in what role?
