| I've been thinkin'- we should start seeing other people. Danny dumping Fran, instead of proposing as she was expecting. | Hello, I'm Fran Fine. So Fran approaches the Sheffield House to sell cosmetics. | I hate her. Brighton didn't take to her right away. |
| Oh you have no idea how complicated I am. | Max: You're hired, but on a trial basis. Fran: Oh thank you, Mr. Sheffield. You won't regret it.. Max: Somehow, I'm rather sure I will. |
| Fran's first mission is to get the kids ready for a big party Max was throwing that night, a party none of them were invited to. | A very good year. Niles appreciated Fran's qualities from the start. |
| The lady in red making her appearance at the party. |
| Of course, Max relented and the children were allowed to attend the party. | Max catches Maggie kissing a waiter in the garden. |
| He kissed you? But Max didn't see it as a good thing, and he fired Fran. |
| Max reconsiders his hasty decision, with some help from Niles. I overreacted. Like Reagan in Grenada | Ma, pack my things. He wants me back!! |
I thought I would make available here on the page some Real Video files of the pilot presentation of The Nanny. Most of the show we saw as 1.1 The Pilot remained the same as this version, but this runs longer than 22 minutes. There were changes in the Cold Opening, and the first scene of the show. Plus, the theme song wasn't done yet, so this has a temporary theme and credits. If you download these in order, you'll see it the way the tape runs---and you'll recognize Fran coming to the door at the end of the third file. From then on, the show is pretty much unchanged.
The Theme SongWe've Only Just Begun

We've only just begun to live, White lace and promises A kiss for luck and we're on our way. And yes, we've just begun. Before the rising sun we fly, So many roads to choose We start out walking and learn to run. And yes, we've just begun. Sharing horizons that are new to us, Watching for signs along the way, Talking it over just the two of us, Working together day to day Together. |
And when the evening comes we smile, So much of life ahead We'll find a place where there's room to grow, And yes, we've just begun. Sharing horizons that are new to us, Watching for signs along the way, Talking it over just the two of us, Working together day to day Together. Together. And when the evening comes we smile, So much of life ahead We'll find a place where there's room to grow, And yes, we've just begun. We've only just begun. |
