Money wise it is an issue for producers, but in person audience wise it us funny as hell.
If there is any other show that had a cast that looked to make the other fuck up on purpose to get a reaction, the Carol Burnett show was the top of the list.
That cast broke the 4th wall so many times it would make the falling of the Berlin Wall look like child's play.
Shit.... I meant is was filmed on the South Pole.
Just like the Carrol Burnette show, the actors of the Nanny, at least at my taping, were having fun, and I could denote the same sparks in trying to get each other to break character.
In the real taping of this episode, the Niles actor, Danial Davis got tired of having to re eat his sandwich in the kitchen scene in that episode, and made off tape comments to our audience in person, as to how they were teasing him.
Here’s a trivial bit you may be interested in. When ‘The Nanny’ was first broadcast in the UK, a lot British viewers reviled Charles Shaughnessy for his awful English accent, with some suggesting he take coaching from Daniel Davis, a REAL Englishman.
Shaughnessy was from London. Davis was from Arkansas.
Boru
I think that is the same of a lot of American "interpretations" of what we think the British Isles are.
FYI, I have long since known Davis was a southerner.
I actually was surprised that the Bond series didn't make Shauhnessy a James Bond. You cannot tell me he would not have been great. I forgot the last new bond we had , but his Blond boring monotone ass put me to sleep.
