“The Nanny” Virtual Table Read Is a Comforting, Noshy Nostalgia Trip

Spoiler alert: Renée Taylor still steals the show.

She had style, she had flair, she was there—via Zoom!

Last week The Nanny star Fran Drescher announced she would be reuniting with the original cast of the classic CBS sitcom to perform a virtual table read of the series' pilot episode.

“Laughter is the best medicine! So, in these challenging times, Petah and I thought, wouldn’t it be great if we pulled together the original cast of The Nanny for a virtual read of the pilot?” Drescher said in a statement, referring to co-creator Peter Marc Jacobson.

“It’s a once in a lifetime Pandemic Performance for our fans around the world who are currently stressing in isolation and could use a real upper! It sure has given each of us a lift and we hope it does for you as well.”

The cast reunited via Zoom—with Jacobson reading stage directions—and even though it's been more than 20 years since the Sheffields left our screens, the actors were on their game, reading a script that still delivered the laughs. Spoiler alert: Renée Taylor still steals the show.

Watch The Nanny's virtual table read below. And if you're in the mood for more Fran Fine, Logo will air a “Best of The Nanny” marathon, featuring the pilot and nine other classic episodes, on April 6, starting at 8pm ET.
