On Los Angeles magazine's new podcast, 'The Originals,' Fran Drescher recalls advertisers demanding her 'Nanny' character be Italian instead of Jewish.
Fran Drescher will be part of a table reading on Monday with her former cast members from the CBS hit ‘The Nanny.’
“I do not like living with regret, and I don’t want to rush into doing something to get the job and then when it doesn’t go right or it fails, I kick myself because I thought, ‘Why didn’t we follow our instincts? Why did we listen to them?’” she said. “I thought, ‘I can’t live with that regret. I know this character needs to be written very close to me and all the rich and wonderful characters that I grew up with.
“Peter and I have a brand of comedy that’s rich in specificity, and not only couldn’t we have written it that way — if the character were Italian — but I couldn’t have performed it that way. So we kind of mustered up our chutzpah and said, ‘No, Fran Fine must be Jewish.’”
