FOR THE FIRST TIME JO TAKES MANHATTAN, WORKING WITH PARENTS WHO CAN'T SAY NO TO THEIR TOY-ADDICTED SONS, ON ABC'S "SUPERNANNY"

"The Sachs Family" � Jo Frost takes on her first-ever Manhattan family. Greg and Fanci Sachs work long hours to provide Ryan, 5, and Jonathon, 3, an Upper West side childhood, but their guilt over time away from the boys makes them spineless in the face of Ryan's tantrums. The youngster will have a complete meltdown in public when he doesn't get his way � he's even pitched a fit in Times Square because Mom wouldn't take him inside Toys R Us -- and it's making a big impression on Jonathon. The apartment is stuffed to bursting with kid gear and toys, since Mom buys treats three times a week at the boys' request, and the family owns 7 strollers, 4 of which are strewn around the cluttered home. Ryan's got separation issues with Fanci -- whenever she leaves the house, he clings and cries, and she unwittingly plays into it by prolonging her departures with lots of discussion and reassurance. Bedtime is a nightmare that includes a 9:00 p.m. snack and both parents lying down with the boys till the children eventually fall asleep. Then the boys later join their parents in bed every night, leaving everyone exhausted the next day. Can Supernanny get Greg and Fanci on track in a New York minute? "Supernanny" airs FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 11 (8:00-9:00 p.m., ET) on the ABC Television Network. (Rebroadcast: OAD 2/20/09)
