The Nanny may be many things, but subtle isn't one of them. Nanny Fine's whine and wardrobe are as loud as the laugh track, but her heart's in the right place in actor/producer Fran Drescher’s fish-out-of-water sitcom. In her third season, the "flashy girl from Flushing" continues to add pizazz to the staid Manhattan world of the Sheffields, while her mother, Sylvia (Renée Taylor), keeps up the pressure for her to marry a rich man. Granted, Fran’s debonair employer, Maxwell (Charles Shaughnessy), fits the bill--and the two do share a mutual attraction--except Fran has her sights set on a Jewish doctor rather than a Broadway producer. If she met her match too soon, the show wouldn’t have lasted six seasons. Instead, Fran falls for a con artist, a mobster, and New York Ranger Mike LaVoe. Romance aside, she bumbles into numerous (mis)adventures throughout this 27-episode collection, like a stint on Jeopardy (featuring Alex Trebek), an appearance on Dr. Quinn, Medicine Woman (with Jane Seymour), an afternoon with Elizabeth Taylor, and a day in court, during which her senile Uncle Manny (Milton Berle) represents her.

Unlike many '90s comedies, The Nanny held onto the same cast, and year three comes compete with wisecracks from Max's assistant, C.C. (Lauren Lane), his kids (Nicholle Tom, Benjamin Salisbury, and Madeline Zima), Fran’s Yetta (Ann Guilbert), and Niles the Butler (Daniel Davis, a Yank with a spot-on English accent). Though extras aren't part of the package, this three-disc set includes the trippy animated special "Oy to the World" featuring talking dogs and lovesick clouds. --Kathleen C. Fennessy

5.0 out of 5 stars The Nanny - Complete Season 3 March 16, 2007

By A Practical Shopper

Format:DVD

I agree 100% with the other reviewers... WHEN IS SEASON 3 BEING RELEASED???!!! Yes, we've memorized Seasons 1 and 2, also. Why the long wait?? When we JAG fans were waiting for that series to come out on DVD, Amazon offered a "notify me when it's available" option. Hey, Amazon... Please offer that for The Nanny - Season 3, too!

5.0 out of 5 stars ...come on already! May 13, 2007

By JenJen

Format:DVD

This is getting a little rediculous! It's been like a year since season 2 was released, pick up the pace please. We're getting tired of waiting. Why is there a year wait? Why not only 3-4 months, like Simpsons and Full House. It's time season three came out!!!!!!

5.0 out of 5 stars ABOUT TIME... January 11, 2009

By G. MULLER-EBEID

Format:DVD

We have only been waiting a few years, so it is about time for this third season to come out. I hope that good sales will support a decision to release the rest, soon. This is one of the best series ever to grace our screens, so I can't wait to receive this third (and one of the best) season in 2009. A reminder of the episodes we can expect to see: Fran meets her penpal Lenny at the Russian Tea Room, Fran and Val throw a singles party at the Sheffield residence, Maggie's sweet 16 party at Lainie Kazan's bar, a visit by mum Mrs Sheffield, a visit to the Kibbutz (and a 16 year old Fran), both of Fran's Grandmas, a fake marriage proposal to Fran from a Frenchie and also a memorable guest appearance by Eartha Kidd - I can't wait... and thank you Sony for finally giving in and releasing this third season. Please don't stop now!!!
