Fran Drescher gave fans of The Nanny a thrill on Friday, thanks to a new post of her with longtime co-star Charles Shaughnessy.
The selfie, which also included producers of the hit sitcom was referred to as a “gr8 nite [sic], indeed!” by Drescher and led to fans swarming her comments, gushing over 70-year-old Shaughnessy.
“Mr Sheffield looks amazing,” one commenter wrote. “He really aged like a good wine too.”
“Charles looks so good,” another wrote.
Others couldn’t help but refer to him by his character’s name, Max Sheffield, and Drescher’s iconic inflection when saying it.
“OHHHH MR SHEFFIELD,” a third commenter said, while another chimed in, “after all these years…Still DYING over Mr Sheffield!”
