Drescher co-created the series, which she starred in as Fran Fine, a cosmetic saleswoman who's fired from her job and becomes the nanny for a British widower (Charles Shaughnessy).
"NANNY FANS ALERT! It’s happening!!!! MONDAY 4/6 the original cast of The Nanny together AGAIN in a virtual read of the pilot episode!!! Link and time soon!" Drescher captioned a screenshot from the Zoom meeting, where stars including Shaughnessy, Daniel Davis, Lauren Lane and more are seen.
"Laughter is the best medicine! So, in these challenging times, Petah and I thought, wouldn’t it be great if we pulled together the original cast of The Nanny for a virtual read of the pilot?" Drescher told Variety in a statement, referring to the show’s co-creator, Peter Marc Jacobson.
