November 3, 1993 – June 23, 1999
The Nanny is an American television sitcom which originally aired on CBS from November 3, 1993, to June 23, 1999, starring Fran Drescher as Fran Fine, a Jewish fashionista from Flushing, Queens, New York, who becomes the nanny of three children from the New York-British high society.
The show was created and produced by Drescher and her then-husband Peter Marc Jacobson, taking much of its inspiration from Drescher's personal life growing up in Queens, involving names and characteristics based on her relatives and friends. The show earned a Rose d'Or, and one Emmy Award, out of a total of twelve nominations; Drescher was twice nominated for a Golden Globe and an Emmy. The sitcom has also spawned several foreign adaptations, loosely inspired by the original scripts.
Storyline
After being dumped, and subsequently fired, by her bridal-shop-owner ex-boyfriend in Flushing, Queens, Fran Fine turns up on the Manhattan doorstep of British Broadway producer Maxwell Sheffield. Fine is hired to be the nanny for his three children, Maggie, Brighton, and Gracie.
