Christmas Episode - S1-E8

Visible crew/equipment: When Grace thanks her father for "The Scream" punching bag, just as Maxwell says, "Oh, I'm glad you like it, sweetheart," and a moment later as he says, "There's my big girl," in both of these shots the boom mic dips down into view at the top of the screen. (00:10:35)

The Whine Cellar - S2-E10

Other mistake: When Sylvia is outside the Sheffield mansion she says "I wonder if my daughter Fran is at home? I will see if she is" the doorbell rings as soon as she finishes that line, but you can see both her hands are visible. She can't have rung the doorbell.

More trivia for The Nanny

Answer: Mr. Sheffield needed someone to manage the kids, not necessarily babysit them. Brighton was a Bart Simpson type, Maggie was shy and awkward and Gracie had personality issues.

Answer: It's a bit of a stretch plot wise, but she is supposed to be more than just a "nanny." She oversees the kid's activities, manages the household, and generally keeps the family running smoothly in the absence of a mother. She is more like a family member rather than an employee.
