Love her or hate her, Fran Drescher, best known for her role in the TV show The Nanny, might be returning to the original boob tube this summer. But it won’t be as an annoying comedy character with an irritating voice. If it happens, she’ll be a talk show host, possibly with Fox News or MSNBC — something she’s apparently tweeting about recently, amongst her tweets about her BF (boyfriend) and eating peach cobbler.

With Oprah set to end the TV talk show host chapter of her life, I can understand that some producers think there’ll be a (huge) void to fill. Though I can just imagine it now: Fran Drescher will be the first talk show host ever whose guests refuse to appear until she stops talking. If you’ve never heard Drescher’s Nanny character, it’s like listening to a combination of nasal wheeze and nails-on-chalkboard.

Now that aside, I have nothing against Drescher. She survived rape at gunpoint in front of her husband, then struggled through and survived uterine cancer. She’s obviously a strong person. Besides, the attractive actress seems to be a very sweet person, unlike so many primadonna celebs. But here are some thoughts for the producers of said talk show: Drescher just doesn’t have a talk show voice. On the other hand, if she studies classic talk show hosts and apply their skills, maybe she’ll succeed. You know, the kind of old-school talk show host who shuts the hell up after asking a guest a question, instead of rambling on like so many today do? Gawd, can someone please bring Mike Douglas back to life and have him host instead?

Notes: The Wrap.

The Nanny For Senator!

by

Fran Drescher, former star of The Nanny has offered her name as a possible replacement for Hilary Clinton‘s seat in the senate, alongside Caroline Kennedy.

It’s not that far-fetched actually, as the cancer-survivor has already had a hand in politics, being recently appointed as a diplomat for U.S. health issues, where she toured Eastern Europe.

But I guess the question in everybody’s head is : Is that her real voice?

Fran thinks she shouldn’t lose her New Yorker accent (minus the nasal part), and says its part of the reason why she should be picked:

“I would hope that he’d take into consideration that I’m a beloved New Yorker who gets the New York constituents probably as good, if not better, than any of the other people being considered”
