In the first episode, Fran Drescher plays Fran Fine, who arrives at Broadway producer Maxwell Sheffield's home while trying to sell cosmetics.

Her character was mistaken for a nanny and instead of correcting the family, Fine assumed the role and began looking after his three high-maintenance children.

After playing the titular nanny and co-producing The Nanny – which was loosely based on her life – Drescher went on to star in another sitcom called Happily Divorced, which was also based on Drescher's life with her ex-husband Peter Marc Jacobson...
