The Nanny (1993–1999)
10/10
Grace, Comedy, and Values
24 July 2021
Seeing this show on HBOMax I remembered watching it as a kid and got all nostalgic. I put it on for my kids and they were instantly hooked. We ended up watching a little of it each day and on movie night I was about to put on the Matrix, when the kids asked if they could watch The Nanny instead. This show represents everything that was right with television. Deep moral lessons brought about with comedy and grace. While teasing at tropes it never ceased to be completely original. It broke through barriers, fulfilling values in marriage, friendship, and family which other shows often lack to their own detriment. Having watched all six seasons with my kids, we all agree it is one of the best shows in the history of television. We hope to find more like it in the future.
