I’ve looked all over and didn’t see this show posted. Mods please delete if I’m deemed blind

I caught the first episode of this show and it made me laugh. Anyone else see it?

The nanny was a ditz who should have been fired on the spot. I liked the butler guy. He chose the right job...out of the three.

Lucy, the nanny truly was a ditz which might bode well in her quest for a sit com. The kid was a cutie but also a handful.

The butler guys mother was a pill. At least her son has a passion. Mom did all the talking and dad stood slilent.

I read over at E that the couple that hired the nanny are in the middle of a nasty lawsuit saying they defrauded lots of people. Not sure how true that is...just read it on their message board.

I just caught this show this afternoon. I thought it was kind of entertaining and will try it again. Interesting how money = eccentricity apparently. Well, I'm sure every person has their own...but money probably affords people to indulge their eccentricities and bring them more into the spotlight.

Do you think that Norwood fancies himself much with all of the self-portraits on his estate?? LOL Best moment to me: When Norwood sat in that huge chair so as to be "above" the butler. Did you notice that his water goblet was WAY bigger than the other one given to the butler too?? Too funny!!

Out of the three job offers, I would feel more comfortable working for Norwood (I did not catch his name). In a weird way, he seemed the most down-to-earth of the bunch.

I was thinking if I had money what would be my eccentricities and I decided it would be animals...they would have to clean up after all the menagerie. I would have an aviary and huge fish tanks and dogs and cats...the list goes on and on. Oh well we all dream! In the meantime it's fun to watch this show.

Hey, watch for me next season (if there is a season two and if I win the Mega Millions). My eccentricity will be...well, I have not decided what it will be, but it sure will be weird!

I liked this show, too. Norwood was a riot, and I thought he was the best, too. I thought the nanny should have been fired. She didn't follow directions and she showed poor judgement in reading that script to the child. I wouldn't trust her to follow rules in the future, either.

When is it on again?

It's on E Monday nights at 9:00 central.

Norwood is a cool dude ;). He was feastured in tonights episode with butler dude. No nannygate tonight. But they had 2 very different (personality wise) chefs vying for the position of personal chef for a richie.

I saw it last night, and Norwood is in the music industry. I would love to see a show about him.
The chef who got the job was my favorite. The other guy thought he was a Romeo!

Ditto, Twiggy. He was "guest" material and not "chef" material.

I just love Norwood!!! I have never heard of him before, says he is a singer, how is it that he is a multi millionair and I have not heard of him?? Am I just out of the loop?? Any of you familar with his work?

I loved his singing at the party.

The blonde fiance girl seems like such a lush!! every week all she wants to do is drink! How did she land a millionair?? she isnt that great looking and she brings nothing to the table.

I felt sorry for the cook, he couldnt help lights went out.

Lol yeah you're out of the loop. He was in a group called Pieces of a Dream. He has some of his songs on his website. Not a bad voice. I think he's had too much plastic surgery though.

How often do they air new episodes of this show? It seems like whenever I tune it they're showing one of the first few episodes over again. I thought the first episode with the butler and the nanny was kind of interesting, but new episodes seem far and few between.

I think there is a good chance that blonde fiance` is a fake/playing the part for the show.

I still like the show.
