Talk:Jewbilee

False information

edit

The following information is either incorrect or inaccurate:

  • When Kenny arrives at Kyle's house to hang out, Kyle explains to Kenny that because he is not Jewish he might not be accepted at Jewbilee. Kenny doesn't care and asks the Broflovskis if he can go.

I've replaced it with:

  • When Kenny arrives at Kyle's house to hang out, Kyle invites him to go with him to Jewbilee, so it won't "suck so much". But Kyle's parents explains to Kenny that because he is not Jewish he might not be accepted at Jewbilee. Kyle tells his parents that "Kenny will believe whatever you want him to believe" and ask his parent if they can take Kenny with them.

Uncited material and other references

edit

Cites?

  • Like Moses, Haman is actually a non-supernatural character from Hebrew Scripture. He is a normal human being and appears in the Book of Esther as a counsellor to the Persian king, plotting to have all Jews in the empire killed; as a result he features prominently in the Jewish festival of Purim. In the episode however, he is depicted as a shadowy, Cthulhu-esque entity with glowing red eyes and tentacles.
  • Garth, the anti-semitic Jewish elder, is a reference to the "Self-hating Jew" stereotype.
  • Jewbilee is a reference to both the Biblical Jubilee and jamboree.
  • The leader of Jewbilee has a variation of the Superman insignia on his shirt, with the Superman S replaced with the Star of David inside the Superman logo outline.
  • Other than the fact that Moses is depicted like the Master Control Program in Tron, he also looks oddly like a huge dreidel, especially since Moses constantly spins.

What's up with Kyle's dad at 1:10? Is that a parody of something or just general SP sillyness? -92.226.149.132 (talk) 13:58, 19 April 2009 (UTC)Reply

Rami Fortis is actually believed to be one of those. Kakun (talk) 21:27, 3 September 2009 (UTC)Reply

I hate to belabor the obvious, but Jews do not pray to Moses. Many who see this episode do not realize it is satire. Bull Market 21:29, 15 July 2010 (UTC)
