Nanny 911: The Supernanny Rip-Off Is Back

Episode 1 Recap by Logan Huffman
October 12, 2006
Welcome to the new season of Nanny 911, everyone's favorite Supernanny rip-off!

This week, Nanny Yvonne will visit the Giannetto family, and try to fix their children's evil ways. The episode just started, but the mom is dragging one child through the house while another is crying and screaming his lungs out. I see a lot of kids and one frazzled mom. When mom gets a moment, she introduces herself as Kelly. The family lives in New York, and she has six kids, all of which are out of control. We see another kid screaming, and one doing a high-flying jump through the air from his crib. Kelly adds that the house is chaos, which I don't really think we need to be told, as it is very apparent.

Dad comes home, and walks through the house like nothing is going on. His name is Anthony, he's 41, and they have 4 boys and 2 girls, all of which are evil. I added that last part. We see Anthony playing with the kids in the pool, and all of them are jumping on him, apparently attempting to drown him. They fail. Kelly says that they never planned to have this many children, but lots of things happen that you don't plan for? Isn't having sex without a condom planned? I guess not.

The kids are still screaming and beating each other with X-Box controllers. Wow, what brotherly love! Kelly starts running through the kids for us, telling each name, which really won't help, as I'll get confused which is which anyway. Anthony is 6 years old, and Kelly says he is a practical joker, and everything is funny to him. Dad adds that young Anthony needs to calm down a bit.

Charles is seven years old, and he has a set of lungs on him, as he bursts out screaming by the pool for no apparent reason. Dad tells us the obvious, saying that if Charles doesn't get his way, he'll throw a crazy tantrum.

We are introduced to the first girl, Gianna, who is five years old. Before we even see her, Mom is yelling at Gianna that she is pissing her off. How nice. Mom tells us that Gianna is the demon's spawn. But to be the demon's spawn, does that mean Mom is the demon? Possibly. Gianna locks her Mom outside, and the editors make her eyes glow red. I told you these children were evil. Gianna proceeds to spit on one of her siblings, and then tortures her grandmother. Dad tells us that Gianna really knows how to get to her grandmother, so she constantly pushes her buttons. Kelly adds that her mom moved in six months ago, and now that she lives here, she is desperate to move back out. Actually, as true as that may be, Kelly actually says that it's hard for her mom not to react now that she sees everything.

The next kid, Samantha, who is three, is adorable, Dad says, but she'll cry until she gets what she wants. Mom says that Samantha is bad, but Samantha seems pretty sweet to me compared to the others.

Two year old Dominick is a challenge, Mom tells us, as we see him having a temper tantrum. Dad says that Dominick does whatever he wants to do, like squirting an entire bottle of glue on the ground as he is doing now. Kelly says that he is the worst two year old she has ever seen in her life. What about the other kids when they were two? How quickly we forget. She says that he curses, and we see him calling them motherf**kers. Wow! He learned that from someone, though.

Dad adds that the kids can hurt each other, and it can be dangerous. Mom adds that they have been known to give each other bloody noses, and everyone knows them in the emergency room. That's sad. I can just hear the emergency room attendant: "Hi Kelly, back again so soon?", with Kelly responding, "Yeah, my kids beat each other down after they called me a motherf**ker." How funny that must be to see. Dad says that it's survival of the fittest, but he says it in an extremely nonchalant way. Kelly says that the kids scream at each other, she screams at them, and she and Dad scream at each other sometimes, probably cursing at each other to fuel the kids' fire.

Dad says that he and Kelly never have alone time, and we see Mom begging one of her kids to cooperate so she can see Dad, who she hasn't seen all day. Kelly adds that they are in their beds every single night, except the nights they decide to make more kids. Sadly, Kelly didn't say the last part, but weren't we all thinking it? Kelly says that all she does is cook, clean, yell, scream, and wipe little butts. Sounds like a fun day!

Dad tells us that Kelly has some depression, due to the kids driving her crazy. Wow, thanks Dad for that helpful insight! Who wouldn't be depressed with six satanic children? As one of her kids tells her that he's the boss, Mom shows us how the kids learned all of the curse words with her response. She says that the kids can be so mean, and it breaks her heart. Mom adds that she cries at least two to three times a day, and she is just emotionally drain. Gianna obviously realizes that her mom cries a lot, as she asks Kelly if she's going to cry, to which Kelly responds no, basically biting Gianna's head off when she didn't appear to be doing anything wrong but being concerned about her mom. Dad says that when all of the kids are going at once, it's crazy, and he's ready to put an end to all of the madness. Kelly says that it comes to the point where she just wants to lock herself away in a mental institution…I mean her room, and she just wants help. She just wants them to be good parents.

Over at Nanny Central, the nannies look horrified at the video, especially Yvonne. Head nanny Lillian asks the other nannies what they think. Stella says that it's an ear splitting racket, and the kids apparently think that the loudest one wins. Yvonne says that Mom she needs to be yelling at Dad more than anyone, and he needs to get involved. Deb says that this is the loudest house yet, and Mom is leading the bunch in the yelling department. Nanny Lillian commends the nannies on their excellent points, and chooses Yvonne to take on the Giannetto household because of her patience and good humor. Yvonne does not look thrilled, but Nanny Deb smiles and nods in approval, thanking God that she doesn't have to visit the evil children.

As Yvonne walks through the town toward the Giannetto house, she says that from what she has gathered, the family is about to blow a fuse, with mom Kelly at her wits end taking care of her five children, while dad Anthony seems to be at a loss in how to help the situation. The family lives in New York, and Yvonne passes a road sign that says 58 miles to New York. That's one long walk! Yvonne passes three college students, who wave at her. She waves back, and the two female college students are acting excited, talking about who they just saw. Off-camera, FOX slips each student twenty bucks for faking the excitement. Yvonne adds that the kids are wild, and the parents have hit a wall. Yvonne finishes up by saying that she really hopes that she can help this family before they crash and burn. After her 58 mile walk, Nanny Yvonne has arrived at the house, and knocks on the door, prompting a cheesy head-turning scene from every member of the household.
