A TV show about a modern day Mary Poppins. This show was very popular with little kids like myself. Great theme song with a hip early 70s sound to it.

I remember that 1970-71 Friday night ABC lineup very well :-) It was The Brady Bunch, Nanny & the Professor and The Partridge Family. Those shows were my prize at the end of a long school week. I was 9 years old.

Love this show...The Addrisi Brothers...wrote and sang the introduction for Nanny...Awesome duo they were ...Please put this on DVD

Great job by the Addrisi Brothers on this theme.

Just saw Juliet Mills in Hot In Cleveland.She looked great.She played Jane Leevesmother.We looked it up she's 73.Keep acting Juliet Mills.I loved you in "Nanny And The Professor"

I loved the show. Then again, I was just 12 years old. It had a pretty strong following among kids my age. During its only full-season run (70-71) it was part of ABCs Friday night lineup, along with The Brady Bunch, Partridge Family, The Odd Couple and Love American Style. A very good TV schedule for family-friendly programming. Then, for the 71-72 season, ABC switched it to Monday nights, and its ratings went through the floor. It was up against Rowan & Martins Laugh-in and Gunsmoke, so it never really had a chance. Too bad. Had ABC left it on Fridays, it may have lasted a couple more seasons.

50 years later and its still a great song!

I loved this show when I was little.

All these shows were were awesome...For years I could only remember small bits of the theme song to Nanny and The Professor...Thanks to KZfaq I can watch them all!

Loved watching this show growing up.

Phoebe Figalilly is a silly name. Nope, it's a wonderful name!! Loved this show!

featuring richard long as the professor.

Didn't realize it was Long as the professor. Loved him in Ma and Pa Kettle and Big Valley. Some shows I watch once and never again- this is one of them.

Same memories of Friday nights on ABC! Loved those shows. Thanks for posting this.

I LOVED THIS SHOW WHEN IT WAS RUNNING ON NETWORK BROADCAST TV TV PROGRAMING BY CAREING PEOPLE WHO HAVE THAT LOVING TOUCH OF NURTURING ITS VIEWERSHIP

great show. Trent Lehman was the cutest kid. So sad how his life ended.

I wish this came out in a complete series on dvd. I would own it

The Addrissi Brothers are LIMEYS!!! Appreciate their British Heritage!!!

Damn, that is an excellent theme song.

That is a cool song, brought tears to my eyes. Good ol days.

This show is on Gettv at 7:15 am central standard time. Along with The Thin Man, The Jimmy Stewart Show, The Ghost and Mrs. Muir and so on.

I remember the theme song far better than the actual show itself!

Loved this and Eddies Father.

LOVED this show and had a mad crush on Nanny. Even owned some of the paperbacks they put out fictionalizing the show. Sad that Mr. Long, who joined this after being a hit on "The Big Valley," was an abusive alcoholic. Then there's the case of Butch....

God, when I was a Kid I had no idea of whom she was in terms of her legacy. Haley Mills is her Sister and John is her Father. They are probably next to The Redgraves one of the most successful British Families to make it on US Soil.

I loved this show.

I remember them well myself,looking back im wondering where the years went,that was a goodtime and era to grow up in.

Ha, yes, I remember this very well, the song is exactly as I remember but I seem to recall the opening images being rather different though, there was this rainbow which appeared during the opening as I recall along with other images and I think they showed bits of the show as well, of course, it was such a long time ago, hard to be sure, can't remember much of the stories either but I do know that when I was a kid I loved this show for some reason and never missed an episode :)

this song makes me cry a happy cry.

Thanx for the memories!

best theme song this side of "Hawaii Five-O"

I'm told by older sibs this was the Friday night lineup; Brady bunch, Partridge Family and this one (not in that order). I vaguely recall nanny and the professor. Tvland aired the first episode and I still have it recorded.

I loved this show

That's a good song. I know it's not the Cowsills, but it sounds like maybe it was modeled after them.

T.V. when I was a child was much better than what children get these days. Too bad cable and satellite don't add shows like this to their stations.

"...came to stay with uuuuuuuuuuuuus..." There's something that cracks me up about the way they sing that vowel sound in the word 'us'.

I got $20 bucks saying that Phoebe Figally and Mary Poppins both graduated from Hogwarts ;-p

...awesome song, seems the Addrisi brothers had their touch in lots of theme songs at that time

Although Juliet Mills was older sister to Haley Mills, I always thought she and Julie Harris more resembled sisters.

The little girl was actually Kim Richards. B-movie star of the 80's. And Paris Hilton's aunt.

If they did that in a Diary of A Wimpy Kid mode, it would be known as "Manny & The Professor". (LOL)

Too bad this wasn't released as a single. Could've done well in the charts- quite power-pop sounding.

This was partially due to ABC-TV's moving this show to Monday night where it competed against "Laugh-In," a considerably more popular show at the time.

Nanny was hot

I love this song.....*sighh*

well in 1974 they moved the partridge family to saterday nights and it ran opposite of all in the family,and from what i heard david cassidy wanted to leave the show,i heard he was getting burned out playing keith partridge.

God I so remember this...

i love that show and its free on hulu most of the epesoides

Great memories

poor Trent.

Not only was Kim Richards was part of the cast of "NANNY AND THE PROFESSOR" but also "James at 15", "James at 16" and now "Real Housewives of Beverly Hills".

No, he was a mathematics professor

i loved it too when i was a little kid

How come, other than that slide in the first second, we only have the audio of this opening?

The opening images were what you described.

I loved this show. Now look at Kim Richards on HW of Beverly Hills.

LMBO I am mad at this song! Know wonder I've never heard of it,lol!

push, push,......DVD hurry!

Memories. Lol

OH trust me.....Mills knows

Thanks, Addrisi Brothers!!

He took his own life in early 1982 after a breakup with his girlfriend amid accusations people were stealing from him.

Ah....memories. :]

When is someone going to post the intro to this show? I love the song with the intro.

You can watch this series on Hulu.

The Addrisi Brothers, in1970.

"freaking"? You can say "fucking", man, we're almost all adults here ;-)

Two seasons.

Thank you!!!

@catcheez i think you may be correct on that.....certain tones.

Have a little bit of faith and lots of love...

I wish there were episodes of this show here on YT. I can't find any. Any one??

I thought maybe b/c of its' similarity to Mary Poppins Disney put the kabosh on the series. Hasn't been in reruns in decades that I know.

i thought it only lasted from 1970 untill 1971.

Richards is hot now!!!

@HardyGirl66 God knows I do.....So many are TRYING to PUSH FOX to put it on dvd.

I remember the show. Memorable theme but in the history of television the show hasn't achieved much status.

I dont understand why this show only ran for one season and the Brady Bunch and the Partridg Family ran allmost 4 seasons.

didn't she have a sweet car like a cord Auburn Duesenberg

And Paris Hilton's aunt, though I'm guessing you already know that.

Nice! Who sings this?

And Hello Larry and Escape To Witch Mountain. . :)

No video..... Way to go, NUMBNUTS.....

What happend to Butch or the kid who played him on there?i know richard long died in 1974.

keep it

Phoebe Pickalilly is a silly name...

how come i cant find season 3 anywhere? i remember seeing it as a kid

3 seasons

Who did the theme?

was the professor a Biology Professor?

Go to hulu.com They show full episodes on there

All I'm getting is a black screen.

What year was it when this aired? And Kim is the little girl? Man, I think being in the business really messed her up! She was better this past season, but she is still a one of a kind flake. I just still don't believe half of what she says, but I guess I don't have to

The worst thing this show begat was what was THEN cute Kim Richards….

hi there

so.....Cal.......freaking gross, isn't it, huh?.......especially that freaking annoying lyric at :44 "Phoebe Figalilly is a silly name". when I was a kid I wanted to brutalize my freaking tv set with a sledgehammer ESPECIALLY when that lyric came up. IT MADE ME WANT TO BRUTALIZE RICHARD LONG. YEAH - THAT'S IT........GO AHEAD.......FLAME AWAY.

wrong

どなたか...........日本語のテーマをお持ちではないでしょうか？どこにも出てこないのです。数万円払ってでも聞いてみたい気分です。長くなりますが（すみません）、５０年前の記憶では、こんな風でした。「はっじめって（初めて）ナニーを見ったとき、うーうーなんか変だぞ。ナッニーが笑えばみんな驚く　不ー思議なことーがいっぱい　　僕らのーナニーは　そうさ何でもできるんだ　やーさしい愛のっことっば（言葉）があるからなーのさ　よっうおき（陽気）なナニーはみんな大好き　愛のちっから（力）でみんなーをしっあわっせ（幸せ）に　　僕らのテレパシックナーニー　ナーーアーーニーー」

I loved this show.
