The show is entertaining but I am irked by the stereotyping of the Jewish wives and girlfriends as not only pushy but also less attractive. For example, there's the scene at the Bat Mitzvah when Joanne and her sister walk in and turn all the men's heads, as if they're the only glamorous women there. It doesn't ring true for a synagogue in L.A.

Who knew Jews and comedy went together?
This is groundbreaking stuff. Almost "revelatory" in fact...
