I love "The Nanny" [View All]

[Ratty]

You know, that sitcom with nasal-voiced Fran Drescher as a Nanny to a rich family? It's not on anymore but I discovered reruns. When it was broadcast I would NEVER have considered watching. I'd never seen an episode but I knew I would hate it, like "Facts of Life" or "Diff'rent Strokes," or something equally inane and horrible.

But I started coming home early from work, and I'm very tired, and there wasn't anything on TV to watch while I wound down except for that so I watched an episode. Then another, and another. And now I'm totally hooked. I LOVE that show, I love the characters, I love Fran Drescher, and C.C. Babcock, and Niles ... even the kids aren't as annoying as they usually are on sitcoms. Sometimes it's mildly bawdy, sonetimes it's REALLY stupid, but I just laugh and laugh.

I think I'm getting old or something.
