out of these 2 shows that had very similar plots and settings, which one is your favourite? for me, it has to be the nanny.

i was watching the episodes on youtube and the more i saw of it, the more i enjoyed it. the humour, the characters were so much better. plus, i loved fran and maxwell's sexual chemistry together.

I picked the Nanny, she was just so funny, and most episodes had at least one laugh out loud moment. Also loved the Niles character. Who's the Boss was a good show too but I enjoyed watching The Nanny more.

The Nanny!

Who's The Boss?

It isn't my favorite '80s sitcom, but I did enjoy it in small doses over the years. I liked the cast chemistry and the characters. Tony annoyed me, but there were times when he had a good episode. The show and plot seem completed dated now. I still enjoy the show though.

I never liked The Nanny.

who's the boss? I couldn't stand the nanny's voice

Definatly The Nanny, great show all around.. except maybe for the last season.

who's the boss was alright, when i saw it as a child. but watching it today, it appears somewhat dated. the nanny on the other hand was a bit more zany, but was too over the top. the characters had different personalities, whereas in who's the boss, there was not much to distinguish from the main characters.

Who's the boss!!! Tony Danza is HOT, and I liked the setting better. The big home in Connecticut. It was a warmer show. I liked the Nanny too, Fran is funny! But Who's the boss better. One of my fav. 80's - early 90's shows, Angela was SO lucky she ended up with Tony!

Who's the Boss by a long run. The Nanny was alright but not one of my top favourites. Who's the Boss is much better.
