Not judging you, but I find it interesting that you seem to have characterized a woman that is not the mother-in-law of any main character as a "MIL." Just goes to the different perspectives, how we think about people, and the stereotypes we hold.


Noah's mom? She's Esther's mil and the potential MIL of Kristen Bell...

Not really.

He’s a rabbi.

I like this show but I HATE with a passion Morgan, the sister. I wish she was just a sideline tangential character and I really wish they didn't have her flirting all the time with Sasha. Everyone talks about how those two are the best characters on the show and I strongly disagree.

No lie Kristen Bell and Adam Brody have *so* much chemistry. But it's not enough.

100% agree. I really liked it in the beginning, not as much in the end.

I just finished the season. I binged it in 2 days. I’m a non-Jew married to a Jew and we both thought it was hilarious. Yes, the characters were stereotypes (I personally know someone that fits each of them) but each one surprises you in some way through out the show, which I think is the point. Our stereotypes are not always accurate. I enjoyed the friendship between Morgan and Sasha. I didn’t like Esther in the beginning and really liked her in the end.

So many people have no clue about Jewish traditions, particularly those that haven’t gone to college (which Joanne and her sister did not). The education is needed for a great deal of the audience.

I have recommended the show to a lot of people and enjoyed the laughs. Too many of you take things way too seriously.

What about the lazy cliche dialogue? Hmm?

Not surprising coming from someone like you.

PP here. Right. I said she is no "main character's" MIL. And she isn't the MIL of the main character. She is best described, as you did, as "Noah's Mom."

I don't understand how the characters are all so filthy rich.

I didn’t really take it so much as flirting, at least on Sasha’s part. He just seemed happy to have a friend! And I thought she was sort of learning “oh, wow, a guy could be friends with me and not want to f me.” That was totally new for her.
