Likely inspired by the hit 1964 movie Mary Poppins, ABC launched Nanny and the Professor, a charming family sitcom that starred Juliet Mills and the late Richard Long in the title roles. The series lasted just one season in 1970, but it later spawned two animated reunion specials for The ABC Saturday Superstar Movie in 1972 and 1973.

ReMIND Magazine caught up with Mills, who, along with her husband, Maxwell Caulfield, was on the red carpet for A Murder Between Friends, a movie starring Mills’ good friend, Joan Collins.
“The show was a great time for me. I loved Richard Long,” Mills says of her late co-star. “We got along so well together.”
