Breakout star of reality show based at "The Nanny" action-figure factory says "I'm not here to make Frans" - The Beaverton

NEW YORK CITY – Fans of the new series Nanny Knickknacks, which focuses on the high-pressure drama at Brooklyn’s premier factory for manufacturing action figures based on the hit sitcom The Nanny, have identified their favourite cast member in the form of newly-hired assembly line worker Cathy Markowitz, who made it clear early on, that she “wasn’t here to make Frans”.

Markowitz captured viewers’ attention early on, declaring, “I didn’t take this job to assemble and paint a bunch of mass-produced Fran Fines, it’s only limited-edition Maxes and Maggies for me”. The breakout star’s enthusiastic following is in part due to her previous previous on other workplace-reality series, which have included one set in a bakery where she insisted she was “not here to make flons”; a mustard factory where she declared her unwillingness to “make French”; and a stint on a swamp-landscape-reproduction series where she absolutely refused to “make fronds”.

Fans of the series are also finding themselves drawn to hard-working Quality Assurance Manager Tim Argento, who, in the second episode, is faced with a crisis in which an illness strikes the group tasked with attaching legs to torsos, leaving remaining staff having to pick up the slack. In one passionate scene, Tim is seen imploring his reluctant colleagues to take on the extra work because, “A Brighton Milhouse divided cannot stand”.

Pressure is brought to the series by no-nonsense CEO Meredith Mallick, who makes her presence felt by insisting on a complete redesign of all Lauren Lane-based products, and demanding control in every step of the process. In a tense conference-room scene, Mallick clearly states her desire to be privy to any and all updates, telling her underlings “Email me on all CCs”.

Mallick’s strong-arm tactics create such tension that, fifteen minutes into her first appearance, one beleaguered colleague is seen quitting on the spot, declaring that, instead, she will be working in a bridal shop in Flushing, Queens.

Ratings have been so positive that the studio has already ramped up production on similar projects, including one based at a plant that makes designer sunglasses themed on other popular sitcoms, named Everybody Loves Ray-Bans. Early buzz suggests the breakout-star is likely to be one Alan Taylor, who insists he’s “Not here to make F•R•I•E•N•D•S”.
