I study Jewish culture. I also have friends who are Jewish who explain things to me that you won't find in books. I told a friend of mine I when I was in the Netherlands I was visiting a museum with a Jewish Portuguese exhibition. They were discussing things about this and that. Then I got into a heated series of arguments. I asked my friend if this is usual among Jews. He made a statement I wish I would have written down. It was one of the best statements as to why Jews argue among themselves. In terms of argument, it seems to be a good way to practice debate for point and counter point.
@@MrBrashRooster Sir, your story is a good foundation for a book and a movie script. When I have the time I want to do research on the Yiddish theaters of New York city, and the Borsht Belt. I am wanting to understand the depths of humor and comedy. I have learned over time that many of the Jewish people have a unique approach to comedy and humor. It sort of reminds me of Russian Clowns. They are not the kind of Clowns as we know them. They are more like the Comedy Dell Arte of 17th century Italy. The word Clown is not what I am after. Clowns develop and stay with slapstick. The humor of Russian clowns and Jewish humor is a mix of subtle depth and mundane cynicism. This is what I have noticed. If you have more to add to this, please send it along.
@@bigboycombo6342 No matter what, your ancestors are Middle Eastern and European. Also, if you make statements where someone starts laughing, that's the European Jewish side surfacing. Culture always has a strong influence. I have friends who are Jewish. They say things that make me laugh. They don't seem to realize that they are saying some very witty stuff. I am reminded of Krusty the Clown from the Simpson. He is a Clown who is Jewish. When he is trying to be funny, he is not funny. But when he is off camera, he is funny without trying to be funny. My friends are like that. They look at me like I'm from Mars when I tell they that they should give stand-up comedy a try. In the mean while I just write down things they say.
As an american, i can say we speak highly of germany. The holocaust gets brought up alot, but we think of germany then and germany now as 2 different countries. I wish for nothing but peace and prosperity to all nato members 🫡

No we don’t. Speak for yourself. Germany has become a socialist joke of a country that doesn’t pay its fair share despite having caused TWO world wars. They’re only still around because America defends them at great expense like all of Europe.
Even within the turmoils of the holocaust, German efficiency was evident. The only reason we have as many records of the event as we do, is because Germans have always been incredible documenters.
@@blake7587 I don’t think so. I think communism is trash and that’s why the USSR fell apart. America did nothing to save Berlin from its fate from Russia. This was a leftist civil war of sorts, national socialism versus communism.

It's a great line! And one that almost no reactors get - why should they? - and truthfully most Americans don't get. Gotta be a *real* sports fan, I think.
As for Jews being small, I used to take martial arts and did Krav Maga for a while ( a mixed martial art developed in Israel). There was one guy who was almost 7 feet tall and well over 300 pounds in a yamaka. I tried to do a wrist grab but his wrist was bigger than my biceps. All I could do was look at him say "I didn't know they started making Jews in king size." Met his wife later and she wasn't even five feet. 😮
🤣 that’s actually awesome man. I mean, Kevin Nash, Kane, Randy Savage, Goldberg, and MMA fighter Nathan Levy all are pretty big dudes. When you think about it, it’s just a stereotype.
He misunderstood the joke. It's not that Jews are stereotypically small, but that as an "adult" at 13, girls tend to be taller than boys because they get their growth spurt earlier. So he's supposedly an adult but he'll still be shorter than all the girls.
What's funny is that I thought the whole cast of Seinfled were of the Hebrew variety, turns out Michael Richards is not. So the tall guy on Seinfeld, is not.
Girls, on average, get a growth spurt right around the age of 12 or so, which means that they're sometimes taller than boys their age. Boys keep growing until they're in their early 20s or so, so they get taller over time, but this is the one time where girls might have a height advantage over boys.
My favorite German jokes are on American Dad ( the goldfish is actually a German guy). The fish was originally supposed to be French but Dee Bradley Baker did such a funny German that they rewrote the character.
To answer your question at 2:44, yes. That's Mort Goldman, a character (that appears very often) who is like the biggest jewish stereotypes. 90% of the time he appears, there's always a jewish joke ready to come at ya. I've been watching the series since it came out in the late 90s.
As an American Jew I love watching this German guy. He seems very genuine and is honestly trying to learn American culture. He is proud to be a German but obviously knows of the horrors of the holocaust. He is an example of today's Germany which is proud, repentant for the sins of their fathers but not going overboard with guilt. No reason to feel guilty for something this generation was never involved in. Refreshing.

Just to let you know... Most Americans who study WW2 realize that the Nazis silenced any Germans who challenged them. Wasn't Dachau built for all who opposed Hitler? We know that Hitler only got a little over 30% of votes so I was taught to distinguish between Germans and Nazis. Love your channel...kerp up the Great work.
As one of my high school history teachers here in the US explained the first country the Nazis invaded was Germany. Most German citizens had not voted for the Nazis, even the election where Hitler became chancellor and was marked by a campaign of terror against opposing political parties, the Nazis still only won 43.9% of the vote. The German people were not nearly so unified behind the Nazis as we tend to portray them in US films, but when you don't allow anyone else to speak, it is easy to make it appear that everyone agrees with you.
@@bkayser05 This is how I feel as well. I do not blame the German people for wanting Hitler to rise to power. He promised them freedom when they were being oppressed. How can I, as an American, argue with that? This is the founding principle of our country. *We* went to war against Britain because we were tired of being mistreated. It only makes sense for Germany to do the same. Unfortunately, they were tricked. They were promised freedom and fairness, and they got a racist dictator. Not only was the entire country not all in agreement prior to the war, they would have been labeled as traitors and sent off to camps had they spoken out against them after the war started. I'm sure there were people who supported Hitler in the beginning who no longer did after they learned of the Holocaust, but there was no longer anything that they could do without risking their lives. I separate the two groups entirely. Those who were on the inside and promoted the Holocaust I see as vile. I don't hold any ill will towards the people of Germany who simply wanted to fight for fair treatment and realized too late that they were tricked.
Me as well. My mother would get very upset when I would say something derogatory about Germany and she would straighten me out real quick. The soldiers in the German army didn’t like hitler but what could they do?
3:30 Is a joke about Jews being doctors but the bigger joke is that the ad is done in the style of a monster truck rally. The dichotomy of something serious like a medical procedure with a sporting event where everyone is drunk and excited over cars cruching cars.
The best Jewish jokes are told by Jews. The Podcast on Springtime for Hitler by Mel Brooks (still with us) is full of inside jokes on Jews see themselves. It's a step above crass stereotypes except of course at the expense of the Third Reich and those who made it possible. Brook's use of Yiddish humor comes out in Young Frankenstein, a classic American film and satire also on the horror movies which started in the 1930s. He's subtle.
I saw Men in Tights with my sister and my non-Jewish GF, a real DAR type WASP. My sister and I were rolling and my GF just sat there looking confused at some of the jokes. Which made us laugh harder. Good times.
'Jewish' stereotypes are usually 'Ashkenazi' stereotypes.. which are Jews that used to live in\around "Germany" (Germany is retatively new) and can be identified by -stein\-berg surnames or by occupational surnames such as Scherer \ Schmidt, and some are Eastern European - because Jews used to migrate a lot \ travel, because staying in one place wasn't always possible, so they used to have their money \ assets in hand. But that's only half of the Jews, with the other half living in Muslim countries and look like döner sellers, there are lots of Iranian Jews in the US for example.
There are three ethnic subdivisions, based on where they settled after the diaspora: the Ashkenazim (Western Europe), the Sephardim (Iberian Peninsula), and the Mizrahim (Middle East and North Africa). For example: Canadian comedian Eugene Levy is Sephardic.
The Sephardim are from north Africa, customs are closer to ancient Israel. Many Askenaz, especially from Russia, preserve many ancient customs, but dress in late middle age thru 1800' rusian clothing. No one in Jerusalem ever dressed in big round fur hats. But it is their way to preserve old tradition. There are many sub- traditions depending on region, Hasid leader/ rabbi, in the Ultra, and reguler conservative, reformed, etc. groups even in the same locality of, for example, NYC. The oriental Jewish community is much different with some cental asia , iranian, turkish cultural elements. The west arab areas whence many sephardim come imo preserve the culture and attire of ancient Israel more closely. They are not Yiddish speaker ( Yiddish is based on an old German dialect with many aramaic and hebrew loan words). They use an old Spanish/ late vulgar spanish dialect called Ladino, now mostly foind in Turkey. They were expelled from Spain at the time of Columbus, going to Morroco. The Turkish sultan at the time heard about this well educated groups of skilled weavers, doctors, chemists, etc. and brought them to Istanbul. They are therestill, some are my friends and neighbors back when i lived there. They found my Spanish understandable. A merchant in the Covered Bazzar in Istanbul asked his little boy to fetch me a Coke. I had been chatting in Turkisj, but he spoke in Spanish with an odd accent. So i said to the boy " y quero muy frio joven por fsvor" - very cold please- and he stared at my blonde hair, blue eyes and handsome face - but i digress😁- and asked if i was Jewish. To learn more of the Askenaz ( old Hebrew / aramaic for europe ), read " The Joys of Yiddish" or tranlated stories by Shalom Aleikum ( a nom de plume). They have a rich and interesting culture and great subtle humor. In the Joys, you will find many words in english that are taken from Yiddish, btw. Mensch, toukus, schlrmiel, klutz, shtick, and so on. I am a former Lutheran pastor and now Greek Orthodox of Norwegian and Dano- Frisian descent btw. Just have a lot of Jewish friends.
@@cw4karlschulte661 Sepharadim are the Jews who used to live in Spain and were expelled 500~ years ago, they usually speak Ladino at home (similar concept to Yiddish but in relation to Spanish [Judeo-Spanish?], instead of German) and can be found pretty much anywhere - Greece, Turkey, even in Eastern Europe. Mizrahi Jews are referred to those who lived in Muslim countries, usually in the Middle East, there's no unique language to this demography, they pretty much spoke the local language. There are 'sub-types' such as Yemenite Jews, who have their own Synagogues because the way they pray is unique and so are their traditions.. And regarding traditions\customs, there's a thing called 'mi'beit aba' which can be lit. translated to "From your father's house", which means tranditions are passed from the father's side to his children (as in Ashkenazi father, for example, will pass on Ashkenazi traditions regardless of the mother's origin), and the concept that some traditions - like the fut hat, because they were traditions that were passed on by previous generations. I have no idea where the hats came from - if something happend in Europe and it forced the Jews there to pick this piece of clothing, but it doesn't violate any law of the religion so it's an accepted custom.. Some traditions are kept out of respect to the previous generations of the specific origin (because "dad knows what's best"), even if they're known to be irrelevant in current times - like different "types" of Jews refraining from eating different types of food during Passover, or some Jews not mixing milk products with fish products although it's not actually forbidden, it's a custom that was passed on and is still being followed - because that's how it was done for generations in one's "house" (previous generations \ lineage)

That stereotypical Jewish accent has largely disappeared from the US, possibly rare even in Brooklyn. Henry Ford hated Jews but was OK with Muslims and I believe that Dearborn Michigan (just outside of Detroit), where Ford started his first assembly line plant, remains the most Muslim city in the US.

My wife and I would really like to see Chris watch and comment on Hogan's Heroes. While the show is over 50 years old, the humor is still razor-sharp. For many of us who grew up with that show, it provided a baseline for Americans' views of Germans (as inaccurate as it was). As a kid, I always thought of German people as bumbling fools like Kommandant Klink or Sergeant Schultz. What's remarkable was the fact many of the actors who portrayed German Army personnel were of the Jewish faith...and dealt with a lot of BS for playing these roles. Anyway, Chris could provide what would likely be a hysterical cross-generational analysis of German-American interaction.

My father knew Barry Herman the Jewish weightlifter who was meant to be on the 1972 Munich Olympic Israeli weightlifting team until he blew out his knee and couldn't go. That was the Olympics where the members of the Israeli weightlifting team were killed in their rooms by terrorists. He really dodged a bullet by having his knee issue happen when it did, I am sure it made him depressed to hear what happened to those that did go.
Sandy Koufax is a very well known Jewish man who was a legend in American baseball.

0:10 I’m proud of you. Almost every German I’ve ever met would never dream about these kinds of jokes without a few pints of the good stuff in them. 👏🏻 it’s about time Germany lets the past go and makes a stand for its people. I’m not sorry.
There is a reason they are so adamant about it though. Germany never wants something like that to happen again it’s a part of their history they wish didn’t happen but since it did they take it very seriously.
Henry Ford Was a well known Anti Semite and Hitler was inspired by him. "Ford’s essays and booklets helped fuel anti-Semitism in the U.S. and abroad. Hitler was a fan of Ford’s anti semitic writing, mentioning the carmaker by name in his own 1925, Mein Kampf. In 1938,"
Family Guy is actually humor that comes from the East coast of the U.S. From New York to Boston. In Boston I have heard so many nasty bigoted statements about everyone who is not from Boston. Seth MacFarlan is from the East coast.
Some people have no humor in life . Every culture has stereotypes and it’s just silly and fun. Comedy is the best way to release the darkness. Don’t worry about people in comments who are offended. The funniest Jewish comedy from way back is “ Hebrew hammer” movie. Laughter is medicine 👏
3:30 many Jewish people are doctors and charge super cheap. A lot of Jewish people stick together and the flashy graphics and ads is a very American 🇺🇸 thing in commercials back in the 80-90s. They would also do “ SUNDAY SUNDAYS SUNDAYS “ for flash sales for deals on TV on Sundays. To get people to show up and buy. It was part of American TV and culture. They also did this with football ads, monster truck ads, and car deals. Hope that helped.
Jews are very well represented among physicians, lawyers, and other professions in the US. They are also well represented in the elite Ivy League universities.
I think in America Jewish doctors are assumed to be better than every one else. This comes from a period where Jewish people were banned from Universities and medical training in the USA. Jewish people unable to go to Saw Bones University New Jersey were forced to study abroad in Europe. In places like Edinburgh University, Le Sorbonne in Paris, Vienna and Heidelberg University. That is to say proper medical schools so consequently the hospitals set up by jewish people in the USA had better trained doctors. Saying your doctor was Jewish meant you had the money to get proper medical treatment. In some parts of the USA it was until recently legal to ask the state government to recognise you as a doctor on the basis you had read some books and done alot of "medical stuff on real people". Americans also see osteopaths, homeopathy and chiropractors as "real" doctors with DR added to their names. But for some reason don't like calling dentists and vets doctors.
Family Guy is made for American U.S. audience . That only people living in the U.S. would fully understand. And more specifically those of GenX generation. So some jokes may not be fully understood by those not American.
So, I'm a 42 year old American from Oklahoma. Pretty liberal in my political persuasions, surprisingly. And I love Family Guy because it's kinda the last place where Americans can just make fun of each other and laugh about it? I dunno. That was a thing when I was younger.
@chrisb.reacts Just for context, that redheaded guy you keep seeing is Mort. He is the show's token Jewish character, so any of the stereotypes you are going to see are going to involve him. Also, the bit about the eye surgery plays on the stereotype that all Jewish mothers want their children to be doctors or lawyers. He had a wife named Muriel that looked exactly like him, but she was killed off. And the "mean one" in the religions is probably Islam, but a good case could be made for some forms of Christianity as well.
the stereotype in american is that you want a jewish person for a doctor and/or accountant, and hispanics for really difficult jobs especially if it is outdoors. there are some stereotypes about when you want african americans but it is more complicated.
The stereotype is that Jews usually choose to perform high paying jobs. Doctors, Lawyers, Dentists, Surgeons. Jobs where they can spend all their time earning money doing what they do and pay people to do the menial labor they don't want to do. For example stereotypically they would be a lawyer and pay the 10 year old from down the street to mow their lawn and handle landscaping chores because they themselves didn't really have time for it, or want to do it. Why do a job that is hard, that you aren't good at and doesn't pay at all because its for yourself, when you could work your $100 an hour job and pay someone else $10 an hour to do the stuff you don't want to do. You still end up taking home $90 per hour and the lawn still gets done. So it's definitely a smarter approach that even I use in my day to day life and probably most people would if they could afford it. But the stereotype is that whatever a Jewish person decides to do with their life, its going to make money.

Girls, on average, get a growth spurt right around the age of 12 or so, which means that they're sometimes taller than boys their age. Boys keep growing until they're in their early 20s or so, so they get taller over time, but this is the one time where girls might have a height advantage over boys.

My favorite German jokes are on American Dad ( the goldfish is actually a German guy). The fish was originally supposed to be French but Dee Bradley Baker did such a funny German that they rewrote the character.

To answer your question at 2:44, yes. That's Mort Goldman, a character (that appears very often) who is like the biggest jewish stereotypes. 90% of the time he appears, there's always a jewish joke ready to come at ya.
I've been watching the series since it came out in the late 90s.
As an American Jew I love watching this German guy. He seems very genuine and is honestly trying to learn American culture. He is proud to be a German but obviously knows of the horrors of the holocaust. He is an example of today's Germany which is proud, repentant for the sins of their fathers but not going overboard with guilt. No reason to feel guilty for something this generation was never involved in. Refreshing.

I really find it funny that jokes that are barely noticed in the USA hit you as much as they do.
Just to let you know... Most Americans who study WW2 realize that the Nazis silenced any Germans who challenged them. Wasn't Dachau built for all who opposed Hitler? We know that Hitler only got a little over 30% of votes so I was taught to distinguish between Germans and Nazis. Love your channel...kerp up the Great work.
As one of my high school history teachers here in the US explained the first country the Nazis invaded was Germany. Most German citizens had not voted for the Nazis, even the election where Hitler became chancellor and was marked by a campaign of terror against opposing political parties, the Nazis still only won 43.9% of the vote. The German people were not nearly so unified behind the Nazis as we tend to portray them in US films, but when you don't allow anyone else to speak, it is easy to make it appear that everyone agrees with you.
@@bkayser05
This is how I feel as well. I do not blame the German people for wanting Hitler to rise to power. He promised them freedom when they were being oppressed. How can I, as an American, argue with that? This is the founding principle of our country. *We* went to war against Britain because we were tired of being mistreated. It only makes sense for Germany to do the same. Unfortunately, they were tricked. They were promised freedom and fairness, and they got a racist dictator. Not only was the entire country not all in agreement prior to the war, they would have been labeled as traitors and sent off to camps had they spoken out against them after the war started. I'm sure there were people who supported Hitler in the beginning who no longer did after they learned of the Holocaust, but there was no longer anything that they could do without risking their lives.
I separate the two groups entirely. Those who were on the inside and promoted the Holocaust I see as vile. I don't hold any ill will towards the people of Germany who simply wanted to fight for fair treatment and realized too late that they were tricked.
This aspect of the history is more emphasised now than it once was.
Me as well. My mother would get very upset when I would say something derogatory about Germany and she would straighten me out real quick. The soldiers in the German army didn’t like hitler but what could they do?
@@bkayser05exactly!
3:30 Is a joke about Jews being doctors but the bigger joke is that the ad is done in the style of a monster truck rally. The dichotomy of something serious like a medical procedure with a sporting event where everyone is drunk and excited over cars cruching cars.

The best Jewish jokes are told by Jews.
The Podcast on Springtime for Hitler by Mel Brooks (still with us) is full of inside jokes on Jews see themselves.
It's a step above crass stereotypes except of course at the expense of the Third Reich and those who made it possible.
Brook's use of Yiddish humor comes out in Young Frankenstein, a classic American film and satire also on the horror movies which started in the 1930s.
He's subtle.
The song about the Inquisition in History of the World Part I is hilarious.
I saw Men in Tights with my sister and my non-Jewish GF, a real DAR type WASP.
My sister and I were rolling and my GF just sat there looking confused at some of the jokes.
Which made us laugh harder.
Good times.
'Jewish' stereotypes are usually 'Ashkenazi' stereotypes.. which are Jews that used to live in\around "Germany" (Germany is retatively new) and can be identified by -stein\-berg surnames or by occupational surnames such as Scherer \ Schmidt, and some are Eastern European - because Jews used to migrate a lot \ travel, because staying in one place wasn't always possible, so they used to have their money \ assets in hand.
But that's only half of the Jews, with the other half living in Muslim countries and look like döner sellers, there are lots of Iranian Jews in the US for example.
there are no more jews in arab countries remember? they expelled us all
There are three ethnic subdivisions, based on where they settled after the diaspora: the Ashkenazim (Western Europe), the Sephardim (Iberian Peninsula), and the Mizrahim (Middle East and North Africa). For example: Canadian comedian Eugene Levy is Sephardic.
@@New_Wave_Nancy North Africans can be Sepharadim as well (and vice versa), Morocco is swimming distance from Spain
The Sephardim are from north Africa, customs are closer to ancient Israel. Many Askenaz, especially from Russia, preserve many ancient customs, but dress in late middle age thru 1800' rusian clothing. No one in Jerusalem ever dressed in big round fur hats. But it is their way to preserve old tradition. There are many sub- traditions depending on region, Hasid leader/ rabbi, in the Ultra, and reguler conservative, reformed, etc. groups even in the same locality of, for example, NYC. The oriental Jewish community is much different with some cental asia , iranian, turkish cultural elements. The west arab areas whence many sephardim come imo preserve the culture and attire of ancient Israel more closely. They are not Yiddish speaker ( Yiddish is based on an old German dialect with many aramaic and hebrew loan words). They use an old Spanish/ late vulgar spanish dialect called Ladino, now mostly foind in Turkey. They were expelled from Spain at the time of Columbus, going to Morroco. The Turkish sultan at the time heard about this well educated groups of skilled weavers, doctors, chemists, etc. and brought them to Istanbul. They are therestill, some are my friends and neighbors back when i lived there. They found my Spanish understandable. A merchant in the Covered Bazzar in Istanbul asked his little boy to fetch me a Coke. I had been chatting in Turkisj, but he spoke in Spanish with an odd accent. So i said to the boy " y quero muy frio joven por fsvor" - very cold please- and he stared at my blonde hair, blue eyes and handsome face - but i digress😁- and asked if i was Jewish. To learn more of the Askenaz ( old Hebrew / aramaic for europe ), read " The Joys of Yiddish" or tranlated stories by Shalom Aleikum ( a nom de plume). They have a rich and interesting culture and great subtle humor. In the Joys, you will find many words in english that are taken from Yiddish, btw. Mensch, toukus, schlrmiel, klutz, shtick, and so on. I am a former Lutheran pastor and now Greek Orthodox of Norwegian and Dano- Frisian descent btw. Just have a lot of Jewish friends.
@@cw4karlschulte661 Sepharadim are the Jews who used to live in Spain and were expelled 500~ years ago, they usually speak Ladino at home (similar concept to Yiddish but in relation to Spanish [Judeo-Spanish?], instead of German) and can be found pretty much anywhere - Greece, Turkey, even in Eastern Europe. Mizrahi Jews are referred to those who lived in Muslim countries, usually in the Middle East, there's no unique language to this demography, they pretty much spoke the local language. There are 'sub-types' such as Yemenite Jews, who have their own Synagogues because the way they pray is unique and so are their traditions..
And regarding traditions\customs, there's a thing called 'mi'beit aba' which can be lit. translated to "From your father's house", which means tranditions are passed from the father's side to his children (as in Ashkenazi father, for example, will pass on Ashkenazi traditions regardless of the mother's origin), and the concept that some traditions - like the fut hat, because they were traditions that were passed on by previous generations. I have no idea where the hats came from - if something happend in Europe and it forced the Jews there to pick this piece of clothing, but it doesn't violate any law of the religion so it's an accepted custom.. Some traditions are kept out of respect to the previous generations of the specific origin (because "dad knows what's best"), even if they're known to be irrelevant in current times - like different "types" of Jews refraining from eating different types of food during Passover, or some Jews not mixing milk products with fish products although it's not actually forbidden, it's a custom that was passed on and is still being followed - because that's how it was done for generations in one's "house" (previous generations \ lineage)

That stereotypical Jewish accent has largely disappeared from the US, possibly rare even in Brooklyn.

My wife and I would really like to see Chris watch and comment on Hogan's Heroes. While the show is over 50 years old, the humor is still razor-sharp. For many of us who grew up with that show, it provided a baseline for Americans' views of Germans (as inaccurate as it was). As a kid, I always thought of German people as bumbling fools like Kommandant Klink or Sergeant Schultz. What's remarkable was the fact many of the actors who portrayed German Army personnel were of the Jewish faith...and dealt with a lot of BS for playing these roles. Anyway, Chris could provide what would likely be a hysterical cross-generational analysis of German-American interaction.
While in Germany, I found most people to be friendly and a nice woman in Darmstadt helped me with the S-Bahn. It helps if you speak some German.

The fact that one notices does not automatically mean that one's judgments about what one is noticing is sound.

03:37 Most American Jews are doctors and lawyers and very good at both. People seek them out, when their lives are on the line and money is no object.
As an American, I should say I’ve never heard of the sports stereotype. I’ve known so many Jews who were exceptionally athletic.
My father knew Barry Herman the Jewish weightlifter who was meant to be on the 1972 Munich Olympic Israeli weightlifting team until he blew out his knee and couldn't go. That was the Olympics where the members of the Israeli weightlifting team were killed in their rooms by terrorists. He really dodged a bullet by having his knee issue happen when it did, I am sure it made him depressed to hear what happened to those that did go.
I don’t understand Family Guy most of the time and I’m American.

Family Guy is actually humor that comes from the East coast of the U.S. From New York to Boston. In Boston I have heard so many nasty bigoted statements about everyone who is not from Boston. Seth MacFarlan is from the East coast.
Some people have no humor in life . Every culture has stereotypes and it’s just silly and fun. Comedy is the best way to release the darkness. Don’t worry about people in comments who are offended. The funniest Jewish comedy from way back is “ Hebrew hammer” movie.
Laughter is medicine 👏
3:30 many Jewish people are doctors and charge super cheap. A lot of Jewish people stick together and the flashy graphics and ads is a very American 🇺🇸 thing in commercials back in the 80-90s. They would also do “ SUNDAY SUNDAYS SUNDAYS “ for flash sales for deals on TV on Sundays. To get people to show up and buy. It was part of American TV and culture. They also did this with football ads, monster truck ads, and car deals. Hope that helped.
Jews are very well represented among physicians, lawyers, and other professions in the US. They are also well represented in the elite Ivy League universities.
the title of your video made me laugh 😂🤣
I think in America Jewish doctors are assumed to be better than every one else. This comes from a period where Jewish people were banned from Universities and medical training in the USA. Jewish people unable to go to Saw Bones University New Jersey were forced to study abroad in Europe. In places like Edinburgh University, Le Sorbonne in Paris, Vienna and Heidelberg University. That is to say proper medical schools so consequently the hospitals set up by jewish people in the USA had better trained doctors. Saying your doctor was Jewish meant you had the money to get proper medical treatment.
In some parts of the USA it was until recently legal to ask the state government to recognise you as a doctor on the basis you had read some books and done alot of "medical stuff on real people". Americans also see osteopaths, homeopathy and chiropractors as "real" doctors with DR added to their names. But for some reason don't like calling dentists and vets doctors.
Family Guy is made for American U.S. audience . That only people living in the U.S. would fully understand. And more specifically those of GenX generation. So some jokes may not be fully understood by those not American.
So, I'm a 42 year old American from Oklahoma. Pretty liberal in my political persuasions, surprisingly. And I love Family Guy because it's kinda the last place where Americans can just make fun of each other and laugh about it? I dunno. That was a thing when I was younger.

Christian, and we do twelve days of Christmas.
@chrisb.reacts Just for context, that redheaded guy you keep seeing is Mort. He is the show's token Jewish character, so any of the stereotypes you are going to see are going to involve him.
Also, the bit about the eye surgery plays on the stereotype that all Jewish mothers want their children to be doctors or lawyers. He had a wife named Muriel that looked exactly like him, but she was killed off.
And the "mean one" in the religions is probably Islam, but a good case could be made for some forms of Christianity as well.
the stereotype in american is that you want a jewish person for a doctor and/or accountant, and hispanics for really difficult jobs especially if it is outdoors. there are some stereotypes about when you want african americans but it is more complicated.
great ep
That laser eye surgery commercial was made in the style of a monster truck event commercial.
"But I us him down to 500" 😂😂😂😂😂
The stereotype is that Jews usually choose to perform high paying jobs. Doctors, Lawyers, Dentists, Surgeons. Jobs where they can spend all their time earning money doing what they do and pay people to do the menial labor they don't want to do. For example stereotypically they would be a lawyer and pay the 10 year old from down the street to mow their lawn and handle landscaping chores because they themselves didn't really have time for it, or want to do it. Why do a job that is hard, that you aren't good at and doesn't pay at all because its for yourself, when you could work your $100 an hour job and pay someone else $10 an hour to do the stuff you don't want to do. You still end up taking home $90 per hour and the lawn still gets done. So it's definitely a smarter approach that even I use in my day to day life and probably most people would if they could afford it. But the stereotype is that whatever a Jewish person decides to do with their life, its going to make money.
2:41 Yes, he's the stereotypical hypochondriac Jewish guy on South Park. I think of him as a cartoon version of a famous director named Woody Allen. But, he's that one uncle every family has. Yup.
