If there’s anybody lacking the basic sequence, they’re going to certainly love the reunion that Drescher had with one other member of the Nanny forged and extra sequence alums.
On Friday, Fran Drescher shared a photograph of herself with Mr. Sheffield himself, Charles Shaughnessy and different key gamers from the ’90s sequence made me need to return to the Higher East Facet with their beloved characters. Test it out beneath:
Ranging from the very left, it’s unimaginable to not acknowledge Mr. Sheffield actor Charles Shaughnessy, who seems to be nearly as good as ever after enjoying a type of fictional males that set our requirements too excessive through his The Nanny position. Subsequent to him are sequence government producers Prudence Fraser and Robert Sternin (who’re husband and spouse), Diane Wilk, Fran Drescher and on the very proper is Marc Jacobson, who co-created the present with Drescher.
