In 1993, The Nanny premiered on CBS. From the show’s first episode, fans were zeroed in on one thing. They wanted to see Nanny Fine and Mr. Sheffield become a couple. While they eventually hooked up, the sexual tension made it easy to miss an important detail in the show. Broadway producer Maxwell Sheffield was handsome and sophisticated. Still, he seemed to be underpaying his live-in nanny, Fran Fine. So, how much money did Nanny Fran Fine make; her income is lower than you might think.
How much did Nanny Fine make as the Sheffield family’s nanny?
Fran Fine was not shy about many things. She spoke about her income regularly, and her spending habits were often on full display. Several times during the series, Fran Fine revealed that she was earning $6 per hour. While her hourly wages were quite low, she did not pay rent to live at the Sheffield residence,...

As movies and TV shows have become the dominant mode of superhero storytelling, some comic writers have crossed mediums with the characters they pen. Allan Heinberg wrote a brief run on "Wonder Woman" and years later wrote the screenplay for the 2017 "Wonder Woman" movie. Brian Michael Bendis, the defining Marvel Comics writer of the 2000s, sat on Marvel Studios' now-disbanded "creative committee." James Gunn, as the co-head of DC Studios, has brought writer Tom King into the fold.
"Deadpool & Wolverine," which brings the 20th Century Fox side of Marvel into the Marvel Cinematic Universe, is the latest example of this; one of the movie's five credited co-writers is Zeb Wells, who also wrote an episode of "She-Hulk: Attorney at Law." For some Marvel Comic fans, however, his name lives in infamy.
Now, Wells' "X-Men" related work is well-regarded. The 18-issue series "Hellions" was like a mutant version of "Suicide Squad...

Exclusive: Topic Studios, the award-winning production company behind titles like Theater Camp and 100 Foot Wave, has laid off over 20 employees, multiple sources tell Deadline. Employees were notified on Tuesday, and we hear that almost all divisions are affected, with all of those working on the TV side being cut.
A company spokesperson emphasizes that despite changes being made when it comes to the small-screen arena, “Topic Studios continues to produce television programs. This week’s staff changes have not impacted the multiple scripted and non-scripted television projects in production and development. While our scripted television strategy will be evolving, we plan to increase investment in this area.”
The layoffs come at a time of general turbulence in entertainment, which is still reeling from last summer’s double strikes and the pandemic that preceded it. Other media companies hit with mass layoffs just recently include Amazon, Hallmark Media, Great American Media,...

Muppet Babies is one of the rare 1980s animated shows that are not available to stream, and Jim Henson cartoonist Guy Gilchrist is revealing why.
During a recent appearance at L.A. Comic Con, Gilchrist gave some answers as to why the Muppet Babies was not available to stream on any of the digital platforms.
Gilchrist said it comes down to “copyrights and trademarks” as the reason why the show has not been able to get into a streaming service. The cartoonist said in an interview with Dennis Does LA that back in the 80s, there was “camaraderie” between the studios, something that doesn’t exist today amid the big corporate takeovers.
“Besides using the stuff that was in the public domain, like the silent stuff that we used in the dream sequences… Remember, the editing on that was incredibly wonderful. We used a lot of film clips from a lot of different things,...

An anguished update of, and response to, Ousmane Sembène’s 1965 anti-colonialist classic Black Girl, writer-director Nikyatu Jusu’s Nanny grapples with the psychic pain of cultural alienation and familial disconnection. Though it contains elements of supernatural horror—including trickster spiders and murderous mermaids—it’s at heart a deeply felt immigration story, one that finds hope not in the empty promises of the American dream but in the strength and resilience of oppressed peoples.
The film opens on Aisha’s (Anna Diop) first day of work at the luxe Manhattan apartment of a businesswoman, Amy (Michelle Monaghan), who’s hired her to care for her young daughter, Rose (Rose Decker). Aisha, a teacher in her native Senegal, has no trouble caring for the girl, helping her with her French lessons and making food that she’ll actually eat, but she does have issues with Amy, whose festering anxieties make her...

Fran Drescher says that this past weekend’s Saturday Night Live skit fashioning the SAG-AFTRA president as a Halloween costume-policing tyrant definitely falls under the “treat” category, whereas at least one guild member begs to differ.
In “Trick or Treat With Fran Drescher,” Sarah Sherman played TV’s erstwhile Nanny, who diligently either sent home kids who were clad in costumes promoting “struck” TV/movies work (in an exaggeration of SAG-AFTRA’s Halloween “guidance” for guild members themselves), or suggested quick tweaks to, say, transform Wolverine into “any gay man over 50,” or turn Super Mario into “the guy from the pizza box.
