Fran Drescher’s Flushing-inflected diction could strip paint, and that seems to be the overarching goal of this most intolerable of sitcoms.

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." [More]
