Thanks to another member on this board, I was able to get a copy of this episode. What they basically did was, they took a clip of "I Love Lucy" (I believe it was "Lucy is Enciente," though I'm not a Lucy fan, so don't quote me!). They edited Fran into it and sort of made it look like she was "talking" to Lucy. Basically Fran was gushing about how excited she was to be marrying Max. I remember her saying something to the effect of, "We're both married to handsome foriegn men who are in show business!" But basically it was just a dream sequence to kind of pay homage to Lucy's influence on The Nanny.
Hope that helps!

I can't stand it when they do stuff like this. This was during CBS's 50th anniversary on TV, and they used Lucy's image to exploit it. Shame on you, Fran!!! I don't think Lucy would approve.

Fran didn't do it to exploit Lucy, she did it because she was a big fan of Lucille Ball. She always wanted to act with her and since that was impossible she put a clip of Lucy into an episode of The Nanny. It was done with admiration and love for a fellow comedienne.

Obviously you know nothing of Fran Drescher, and are blind to all Fran's mannerisms channelling Lucille Ball on "The Nanny." She happens to be one of her comedic idols! Ever see Fran hosting/commenting on "Finding Lucy"???? Yeesh. Think before you post or don't post about things you're ignorant of.
