This is actually among gua punya personal favourite comedy of all time. Gua kalau tengok sitcom ni, memang tak kering gusi tengok lak. Gelagat dia yang selamba badak dengan boss dia Mr Sheffield dan cara dia membesarkan anak dia memang tak konvensional langsung. It was a situation of blue collar meets blue blood, as Fran gave the prim-and-proper Maxwell and his children a dose of 'Queens logic,' helping them become a healthy, happy family.
Siapa yang boleh lupa dengan gelak dia yang macam ada putik durian tersekat kat celah tekak dia, rambut dia yang tinggi 5 inci lepas kena blow, skirt dia yang tak cukup kain tu dan ke-slamber-an dia dengan Mr. Sheffield tu. Eventhough diorang ni majikan dengan pekerja, actually, they like and can't live without each other. Mr. Sheffield was clearly smitten with Fran, even if he was too shy to admit it, and Fran was equally taken with Mr. Sheffield.Walaupun dia ni gila-gila sikit, but the Sheffield family accept her the way she is. She's one nanny who got style, flair, and sometimes a seductress. Gaya dia sebijik macam mak dia si Sylvia Fine dan nenek dia Yetta.
Selain Ms Fine, gua suka gak kat si Niles, faithful butler yang sentiasa aje nak kenakan si C.C. Babcock tu. He always ada aje trick up his sleeves supaya sakitkan hati si C.C. tu. He watches all events with a bemused eye and levels problems with his quick wit. C.C. plak, views Fran with a mixture of skepticism and jealousy, as she had designs on the very available Sheffield.
Maggie, anak sulung dia yang kira macam tengah baru nak naik ni ada macam teen-crisis (boys, freedom & party!!!). Brighton, anak lelaki tunggal Maxwell yang cheeky, devious dan selalu aje nak kenakan kakak dia, si Maggie. Maxwell always worry pasal anak dia ni. Gracie, anak bongsu dia yang grow up to be exactly like Ms Fine. Cara jalan, bercakap, semua sebijik macam pengasuh dia tu.
FYI : The show premiered in November 1993 Sitkom ni ada sebanyak 6 season.
