Fran Eats Wasabi! | The Nanny

[@nordinkarbache5883]

The way C.C. couldn't almost couldn't hold her laugh after the "Oreo cookie magnet" story, must have took a lot of takes to complete...

[@Shiirow]

there was a few monents when she was seemingly on the verge of laughter.

[@anaktrina]

Yeeees

[@Ishicoatl]

You can clearly see it's actually more than one take, CC did laugh, look at her arms

[@ChristinaAguileraExclusive]

@@trevorchambers well yes, she laughed at the joke but I think her reaction was real apart from her acting!

[@EvanRockwell1]

Watch the guy in the background, between them....

[@cybersquire]

"The Nanny" was essentially Lucille Ball for the 90's and it played brilliantly. Also, we need more 'Sultry voice' Fran for .... research.

[@allisonwinchester3108]

Research done alone, at 2 am when the show still comes on nickelodeon, with a box of tissues and lotion next to you lol

[@miaceria2531]

Its sound of music meets flushing lol 😆

[@heatherg1706]

I never thought of that before. You’re right. She was a Lucille ball of the 90’s.

[@Starzfishzs]

yes "research"

[@Halo2glitchlover22]

Gross. Unnecessary commentary. No one wants to know about that.

[@siohead9021]

Her little fist clench after CC moved the water was so good

[@KajiXD]

also, her timing, picking up the glass. That's great comedy.

[@QueenBForLife]

Lmao there was so much pain and suffering in that one moment lol

[@kimmiglannon6275]

So wonderful, comedy is so good when you watch it over and over

[@Kenneth_villanueva27]

you know that mustard really clears up the nasal passage lol

[@DTD110865]

That's it. I'm going to pick up some wasabi.

Wasabi can clear up the nasal passages, it's only temporary, same with horseradish also..

[@bugg2032]

Boiled crawfish with extra seasoning too

[@VitoxCzechia]

My most favorite part of The Nanny is when Mr. Shefilrd said that age of Fran Fine wasn't found by FBI. :D

[@durgalin341]

My favourite part is “ How Now Brown Cow ?”

[@xKasumiChan]

@Ash. Ⓥ She few times almost revealated her true age. If I am counting correctly, she should be 35-36 in the last season.

[@jasperordrup]

Fran Drescher is born September 30th, 1957. So she becomes 63 this year. She is still looks amazing!

this competes so hard with moment when C.C screamed after Niles made her "cluck like a chicken" for the most hysterical funny moment that makes you die laughing.. XD

[@NyxSpirit]

You forgot when she was “shaving” Mr. Sheffield and Niles cracked at her and the audience went wild. 😂

[@lexsmith8689]

@@NyxSpirit no I didn't.. there are many but these two are especially irresistible.. maybe when Fran came home drunk ended in Maxwell's bed and C.C. brought him breakfast.. but that again is cc yelling so it doesn't count since that is Niles cc running gag..

[@investoman007]

What a very epic scene given that Fran’s voice was such a signature part of the show! 😂 To hear it clear and normal for just a few seconds. 😂

[@benk9817]

I remember cracking up SO MUCH when I watched this scene for the first time. I have never fully appreciated Fran's acting chops and comedic timing until now!

[@constantine9142]

She had a modern I love Lucy vibe

[@lovelyflorie]

When are y’all gonna put the nanny on Netflix or Hulu?!?!?

[@YumiMumi20]

its on stan

[@melvinrovelo]

It is on prime video

[@ourevilone]

it was on roku for like a year only 2 seasons at a time and now its gone

[@nic4319]

All the seasons are on Amazon prime

[@lovelyflorie]

It’s unavailable to watch in my location :/ I guess The Nanny hates NYC lol ironic, no?

[@Liitebulb]

I LOOOVE her suit and it was defo one of my favourite parts ever when she was piling the wasabi like it was mustard,and the audience knew what was coming !

[@jlammetje]

Although I can’t imagine piling that much mustard on anything either 😅

[@s.leochapman417]

Her suit is probably by Todd Oldham. She wore a lot of his designs on the show.

[@panossianv]

As soon as Fran's eyes widened, I laughed so hard lol.

[@miknrene]

It was a true Lucille Ball moment.

[@palomadelarosamartin4780]

0:50 C.C. is so hard trying not to laugh with Fran's anecdote... And given the change of her position, I think she failed and had to begin again that part

[@decam5329]

That was the actor about to lose it, not the character. Beautiful moment.

[@hhhh-xb9py]

Yes u can see it was edited lol

[@decam5329]

It's little moments like this littered through the series that shows that the cast had fun making this show. It seems to have been a labour of love for all involved.

[@lemperez]

Her comedy reminds me of the great Lucille Ball.

[@normaflores2132]

That was her inspiration for the character. She loved Lucille Ball.

[@Purrpurrpurrpurr]

The hole show was inspired in I Love Lucy.

[@pleasantlydrifting6663]

I was thinking the same thing! Love it

[@kimsmith1746]

All female based sitcoms, especially Laverne and Shirley, are based on I Love Lucy. Look at the duos out there. I am not disparaging them. It just is what it is. The ensemble casts are really the best way to go. And even they all go back to the golden age of television somehow.

[@mattmc9812]

I loved Fran her humour was just good old. Fashioned fun

[@VitoxCzechia]

This part about voice was so funny! I thank you for post this video!

[@Kaizerzydeco1]

I love that Fran owns her voice.

[@VitoxCzechia]

It was front pages like those that made a long checkout line wait more bearable.

[@R.Oates7902]

Ikr? Lol!

[@stevarino1989]

lol poor Lauren, she was going to burst out laughing when Fran told her about the Oreo cookie magnet lol.

[@ArcaneAzmadi]

Definitely the funniest scene in the entire series. Fran Drescher just had such a knack for physical comedy, and CC is so hilariously self-absorbed.

[@KNightRider504]

The way she fell and got back up like it was nothing is so accurate. Lmao

[@RobertPagano226]

I always thought Nanny Fine was the new Lucy, when you see these clips again, I just chuckle all over again.

[@jaypay8954]

True im sure they took a page out of the I love lucy formula because it was soo successful.

[@Ghrainne]

no comparison to Lucy. Both are great but Fran is much more involved in a British like comedy. Lucy is not

[@EpicKate]

2:27 Because I know I'm not the only one who wants to hear this a few more times.

[@55555gino]

I ate wasabi for the first time last year thinking it was something else and my reaction was EXACTLY the same lol 😅💀

[@Autistic_Gallant-92.]

When I first tasted it, I thought it was avocado 🥑. 😂

[@OmarPhoenix]

CC broke character at the Oreo bit!!!

[@elisemariebibeault3991]

I see so much of Lucille Ball in Fran's performance in this scene. By far The Nanny is the funniest sitcom. I love it so much I have the DVD box set of the entire show. Sure wish they would do a reboot.

[@jaypay8954]

I do too!! Lucille was so funny im sure The Nanny took out a page from her. she was that good. May she R.I.P

[@Demi.d3mi]

No wonder i loved this show so much as a kid, i loved lucy as well

[@Ghrainne]

Lucille Ball and fran fine have no relevance to each other. They are both good in different era and not a comparison. Fran is much more acting out of a comedy that is based on British humour. m not Lucille Ball. I am European of course.

[@ronstarkronstark500]

This show was a PASSIONATE representation of the love Fran and her ex had for entertainment. This is very hard TV to do in front of a live audience. In all this time it’s beautiful and timeless.

[@tsnovak20]

Her facial expression are priceless

Even if Wasabi was like hot spicy mustard, that is an awful lot of “mustard” she puts on the sushi.

[@KnickKnack07]

Even if it was a weakly spicy mustard...

it was guacamole you could tell by the texture, there is no way should could have ingested that much Wasabi at once (maybe an experienced competitive eater could handle that).

[@nutbastard]

@@sanansa4567 I've gone almost that hard on a pile of wasabi. The problem isn't the effects, it's just that large amounts of wasabi taste terrible.

Washed down the whole thing with a bottle of coca cola. Everyone in the restaurant was pissing themselves laughing

The last part is comody gold !. How the voice got changed (but audience does not realize it until she mention about it), she question how long it will last and suddenly she get her normal voice back. But funnest is how she accepts her voice getting back to normal at the end with a facial expression and shoulder movement to say "oh well, yeah whatever !"..!
