'The Nanny' Ruins Nick at Nite
Ever since the Cosby Show started appearing on Nick at Nite, I would tune in all of elementary and middle school, laughing at the antics and quirks of Bill Cosby as he incorporated a moral or lesson throughout his syndicated show. Following Cosby's success on Nick was the Fresh Prince of Bel-Air, a monster success in the Simpson household. A different premise from Cosby, focusing on a young, goofy, troublemaking Will Smith. With these two leading shows surrounded by other solid ones like George Lopez, Roseanne and Full House, I loved staying up into the early hours of the morning watching these characters, that is until The Nanny joined. I don't even want to look up the show and find the main characters' names or the lead actress name because it was that terrible. Her voice was the most annoying sound in the world (a huge understatement), she wasn't spectacular to look at it, and I'm supposed to believe a premise of a loud-mouthed, shitty nanny that, instead of getting fired for incompetence, marries the rich bastard whose toilets she cleans. What a waste of money, a good time slot on Nick at Nite, and a simple job that got ruined. Picking Nick at Nite shows is like God picking who deserves to go to Heaven: there are so many proven shows that deserve it and God picked Hitler to join his team. Whoever picked The Nanny should be fired and I should choose the shows, though the channel has picked itself back up since its disastrous decision. Now Friends is the headlining show, equivalent to the Pope of sitcoms, but I still never tune in to watch. Maybe I've outgrown the late night programming channel or maybe my tastes have changed, but one this is for sure: The Nanny fucking sucks.
