The Nanny Complete Series DVD – Full Classic Comedy Collection by Universal Studios

Love this series

My family knows I love The Nanny so they bought it for my birthday!

I’ve always wanted this series on dvd, I’ve watched it before but never even got halfway through. I’m so happy I got this! The dvd case, CDs are really nice quality! I’ve watched all the seasons and not one scratch or pause on the disks. The case itself is a harder material then just plain plastic like other cases I have. This is a really superb product, I wish all dvd series came in a really nice quality case like this one! I highly recommend this product.

I have been waiting for years for this compete set to come out. For years we only had the first 3 years of the show out on DVD. The Nanny is probably my favorite comedy show of all time. Before the show aired I happened to be at a Star Trek convention and saw Daniel Davis (played Moriarty on ST:TNG and Niles on The Nanny) and he said he was going to be doing a sitcom and asked that we watch it. I watched the first episode and fell in love. Fran Drescher is the funniest woman on television since Lucy. She does so many of the facial expressions that made Lucy so funny but with her own spin on it. The whole show's ensemble cast is so good. The casting department deserves a high five. While I loved the pairing of Mr. Sheffield and Fran I was just enamored with the possibility of Niles and CC becoming a couple. They hated each other so much and their quips and digs at each other had me in stitches. Niles and CC had so many great moments; from Niles dancing a la Tom Cruise in Risky Business to them waking up drunk on the sofa with Niles having lipstick all over his face and caught by Fran and Mr. Shefffield. Probably the one scene though that makes me laugh till I cry even now though is when Mr. Sheffield has surgery and Fran is thought to be a nurse and is ordered to shave his pelvic area. She can't get out of it so she has the can of shaving cream under the covers and it looks so risque. The crowning moment is when Niles walks in, looks at what's going on and says with a straight face, "Bucking for a raise?" Funniest thing EVER!! Buy this set of DVDs. You will have a such a great time watching and re watching this great show!

Finally we have the complete set of this great show. This is one of the best put together box sets I've ever seen. The quality is great, the discs and transfers of the episodes as well as the sound quality are all perfect. All the episodes are full length and unedited, which was awesome, there were some moments we had never seen before. The packaging is fantastic, if you've ever bought a complete series box set before than you know that sometimes the packaging can really suck. Sometimes it can scratch the discs, sometimes it won't sit on the shelf right and end up getting damaged, I'm sure you all have your own horror stories when it comes to this subject. The packaging for this is not like that. The seasons come in modified regular DVD cases, two seasons for each case, all the discs have their own spaces. And all three seasons cases and the bonus disc as well as the small booklet are held in this great really thick cardboard box that's pretty much perfect and it's the size of regular DVDs. I know first hand that it can stand to be dropped a few times with no damage. When it comes to special features, while there's a bonus disc, there's still not a lot. They got Fran Drescher to do some episode commentaries, it's only on three episodes though all of which are in the first season. I wish she had done some more on episodes from other seasons. The bonus disc does indeed have the Nanny Reunion A Nosh to Remember special, oddly enough as a bonus on the bonus disc. Along with three behind the scenes features. It's nice to have the special even though Daniel Davis isn't in it. The features shed some light on what went on behind the scenes and how the series was picked up by CBS.
This is a great investment if you love this show, and I completely recommend getting this.
