Max "did a Niles" when he said, "No one important is ever around for the holidays. You staying in town again, CC? And Niles actually gave him a look like, "Good one, sir!"
Of course the real tragedy of that last scene is not that they ended up in the same place but the fact that he RECOGNIZED MISS BABCOCK BY HER CABOOSE!!!!
There is a "meta" scene in the next-to-the-last episode where Niles and Fran meet Fran Drescher...and Niles asks her, "What's the butler like? Is he as funny in person? I think he steals the whole show." With Davis' accent kind of slipping.
“Where do you stash your cash?~” “Somewhere YOU’LL never get near.~” “Oh your mattress?~” “...No....HIS.~” The BEST BURN YET!!!!! XD PLUS, he’s NOT wrong there she NEVER did
@UThink UCan Actually no, he did not mean them, they had a relation together where they were teasing one another and finally they got together, see teasing can be a sort of flirting.
@@appleskum6520 actually actors were suprised by that, producers wanted to tie all ties and end all stories because of TV show ending, people would be propably unhappy with Niles staying the same and CC still being alone, so they got them together, CC finally found someone and Niles finally got "somewhere" in his life, there was episode where he was really sad bcs he was only one unmarried from hsi friends
I just found out last month that Niles is an American in real life, not British! This show belonged to him. He got the best lines and had impeccable delivery.
No need.Spinoffs have a horrible tendency to flop,and plus,they're fine having only a few minutes of attention.The Minions from Despicable Me are the stars of the show,but they are more awesome as supporting characters than as protagonists.
And she always implied he was...lacking in masculinity...but once they were having a relationship (end of Season 6), she told Fran something VERY different.
@@williamfisher74 You do have to wonder what happens if they're far away from everyone they know. And I do sometimes think they had something going way before "The Dummy Twins" in season six, and were hiding it. Although they don't seem to act that different when they're alone.
Not familiar with what "Double Fatality" means. But it does kind of sound like CC is saying, "I know you'd love me to sleep with you, but it's not going to happen." So, you wonder why she feels the need to declare that. Protesting too much? In the Season 5 episode, "A Decent Proposal," there is a scene where Niles barges into CC's room looking for his wallet, and she thinks he "wants" HER...so, she seems to be assume that, many times. Actually, Niles' comments about CC split between implying she "didn't get any" and implying she was promiscuous. And a lot of hers about him implied he was a little lacking in....masculinity. So, basically, many of the comments had sexual undertones.
The crack about Max's mattress is Niles rubbing it in that Max has no interest in sleeping with CC...because CC wants Max or at least says she does...but did you notice that there are many times when CC seems to be trying to make some kind of play for Max but winds up grabbing or kissing Niles?
One of the funniest parts of this episode is when Fran reveals that she lost her "hat" at the Kibbutz ... and then Mr. Sheffield realizes what she REALLY meant 😂😂 and later when they all go to one, a worker offers to take Maggie's hat and Fran runs over and says "OHHHH NO YA DON'T!"
Maxwell has a line in the wedding episode about being a little worried about whether he can "live up to Fran's expectations" on the honeymoon (he's telling Niles this) because Fran is "so experienced." I wonder if Max losing his "hat" didn't happen until his first wedding night, with Maggie, Brighton, and Gracie's natural mother - and if that was part of what was scaring him about a relationship with Fran all along.
One of Fran's big successes as the nanny, supposedly, was helping Maggie be less shy and increase her confidence...but it seems like just about every plot concerning Maggie involves her and a boy...there wasn't much too her besides her interest in boys...and, if you think about it, that's an example she would have gotten from Fran. Fran doesn't seem to be into much besides getting married. CC, with all her faults, has other goals in life. I would have thought Max would have more worry about Maggie or Gracie imitating Fran's provocativeness toward guys they liked...although, actually that doesn't seem to happen either. Both of them actually remain a little dull.
C.C. is the reason Maxwell didn't produce *Cats*.. one of the definitively greatest musicals of all time.. and yet she still expected to find a way to become his next wife (after she failed to become his wife the first time...). Funny and proof that she needs Niles as that is the only way she ever became honest about herself. LOL
I always thought CC was supposed to be smarter than Fran. In spite of the Cats thing, CC seems to have been the one Max trusted in business, more than Fran, although it does seem like maybe he (Max) thought of her as "the help" in a way, too, especially early on. And what is with her look on that show clip? I get that Niles is doing bunny ears, but what about the rest of it - the dark hair and all?
But if that was Max's reason he couldn't like CC that way, he would NEVER have fallen for Fran after all the things she did that caused problems for his business.
@@Kaboomboo We are talking a fictional universe here, and in the Nanny-verse, it happened just like that. There is even an episode that shows that is what happened. Now, whether it is good, bad, great, or terrible, that isn't anything but POV, but some musicals are very overrated, but one that is both horrible and overrated is _Oklahoma!_ !!! Nothing is worse or more overrated that that!
The women in audience laugh very high , them look like screaming sometimes , but, I understand, this show it´s so funny in tv, imagine live, it´s to laugh a lot and screaming !!
After a while, his repeated references to how UNsexy she is do begin to feel like "protesting too much," and ditto her comments about him...not being...masculine. There is something sexual underneath all those insults. You can kind of hear his cry of, "Oh god, I want you so much...is a butler not good enough for you?!" beneath all the insults. So while I think the writers made mistakes with how they portrayed Niles and CC ending up together, they did NOT just pull it out of nowhere, as some viewers complain. But are you referring to any one point in these clips in particular? The exchange where Niles says he keeps his money someplace CC will never get near, and she replies, "Oh, your mattress?" sounds like SHE is saying, "I know you want me in your bed." And she does that another time, in "A Decent Proposal" when he barges into her room and says "Give it to me" and "I'll get it if I have to tie you down." He is looking for his wallet, but she thinks he wants her. And I honestly don't know if she's laughing at him or happy about it. But if she is happy about it, if he had feelings for her, he missed an opportunity there. Niles' reply to the mattress quote in this episode, however, is, "No, Mr. Sheffield's mattress," which I am sure "slash" fans have a field day with. I think we're supposed to believe Niles covers his attraction with insults due to CC acting snobby...but whose to say she didn't start the snobby act as a defense against him? I would like to think she did know all along he was attracted. If she really believed he thought she was ugly, etc, it makes her ending up so happy with him, well, much weirder.
In the first episode of season 3, "The Pen Pal," the "cluck like a chicken" thing and the subsequent insults don't feel so jokey...but in this episode and after there is something jokey about the insults.
@@natedeanmaan2 Suggested which? I do think that replying to "some place you'll never get near" with "Your mattress?" sounds like she's saying, "You really want me to sleep with you, but it's not going to happen." So, she knows he wants her.
Even though one of the jokes about CC was that she was always trying to come on to Max, to no avail. But you're right, she never dressed that sexily, even when she was doing that. She talked a lot about being jealous of Fran, but she actually professed to believe she was better than Fran because she was smarter and good at business, and that Max needed that. She never actually tried to act like Fran.
Not really.Spinoffs tend to fail.Plus,it's awkward to have side characters as protagonists in their own films,with Dory from Finding Nemo being a simple exception.
When others laugh, I do not have to laugh. In Germany, in German, we get it without laughter. I really prefer to find out by myself when I have to laugh.
@Arikm7 you are right when I live in the kibbutz it was from 1986-1994 it was a good time and a bad time for me but it was a nice place to live in and everybody knows everybody and some people knows everything that going on the kibbutz
Because that was the main plot of the episode....Maxwell wanted to send Maggie to a convent for the holidays but Fran talks him into send her to a kibbutz (which she discovered she actually hated except for it’s where she lost her virginity).
