Remember The Nanny? Fran Drescher may have had an annoying voice, but she sure played a great role as the wacky-yet-lovable caretaker of some rich British dude's kids. It's no secret that as a kid I absolutely loved the show, and in fact, often pestered my parents to hire our own nanny. Needless to say, that didn't happen, but it's cool - at least I got to watch Fran Drescher annoy the hell out of millions of American's with her high-pitched, nasally voice. Recently the cast of the show reunited after just over 15 years since the show's series finale, and you won't believe how much they've changed.

1. THEN
Fran Drescher's character offered an uptight, high-class family some much needed fun.
NOW
Most recently Fran starred in the Broadway production of Cinderella.
2. THEN
Maxwell was the very sophisticated father that hired Fran as his nanny to help raise his kids. Much of the show revolved around Max and Fran's romantic tension.
NOW
Charles is still acting to this day in film and television, and much like his former co-star Fran Drescher, has embarked on a successful Broadway career.
3. THEN
In my mind, Niles was by far the funniest character of the show. He was always ready with a quick and sarcastic comment that ultimately shut everybody up.
NOW
Daniel Davis has continued acting both on-screen and in voice over roles since the show ended in '99. He was most recently cast on the Broadway musical Noises Off which closed earlier this month.
4. THEN
Lauren Lane played C.C. Babcock - a fellow employee of Maxwell's who, unrecognized by him, continuously makes sexual advances towards him.
NOW
Lane still acts today, but mainly in theatre productions. Since 2000, she has participated in dozens of productions at the Zachary Scott Theatre, in Austin, Texas.
