Ms. Leiber makes some interesting and valid points in this well written piece. As an American Jew who grew up in NYC, I found the first season of this series lived up to its name, literally, "nobody wants this." Annoying and rife with cruel and grating stereotypes this show is largely terrible. Its depiction of Jewish women is insulting and banal. Bell and Brody are so frothy and unrealistic as to be a natural emetic.
