Material Fran - S2-E4

Revealing mistake: When Fran is on the private jet, the champagne sitting between her and Cathy doesn't move through all the turbulence, showing that it is the camera shaking and not the plane.

The Nanny Napper - S2-E6

Revealing mistake: When Fran and Maxwell are changing the baby's diaper in the kitchen, the baby "pees", but the pee shoots from the baby's chest.

The Nanny Behind the Man - S2-E18

Revealing mistake: When C.C tells Niles "Stay on your toes" he supposedly steps on her toes but it is clear that he does not get anywhere near her toes before she cries out in pain.

Other mistake: When Sylvia is outside the Sheffield mansion she says "I wonder if my daughter Fran is at home? I will see if she is" the doorbell rings as soon as she finishes that line, but you can see both her hands are visible. She can't have rung the doorbell.

Trivia

The Gym Teacher - S1-E19

Trivia: At the end of the show, Fran and The Gym Teacher, played by Rita Moreno, are discussing Fran's high school boyfriend. Moreno's lines in the scene are from the song "A boy like that" that her character Anita sang in the 1961 movie West Side Story.

Questions

Show generally

Question: What does she even do? The kids are too old for a nanny.

Rob245

Answer: Mr. Sheffield needed someone to manage the kids, not necessarily babysit them. Brighton was a Bart Simpson type, Maggie was shy and awkward and Gracie had personality issues.

Answer: It's a bit of a stretch plot wise, but she is supposed to be more than just a "nanny." She oversees the kid's activities, manages the household, and generally keeps the family running smoothly in the absence of a mother. She is more like a family member rather than an employee.
