It’s about time that they brought The Nanny out on DVD. It is the funniest sitcom that ever hit TV. Fran Drescher and the entire cast made watching so delightful that I couldn’t wait until the next episode. My only regret is that they are binging out one season at a time. I’m ready to choose all 6 seasons now. I’m definite that there are a lot more fans like myself who would do the same thing. Can hardly wait until I have the first season in my hands. Substantial expose.
