"So Jewtastic"-VH1 this Monday

[YoungRemy]

Beastie Boys will be featured on a VH1 show called "So Jewtastic" tomorrow at 9 P.M. Eastern...

From Dylan's anthems to Spielberg's blockbusters, it's no secret that Jews have made huge contributions to pop culture. They've succeeded in spite of age-old stereotypes about Jews as brainy, neurotic, and well, anything but hip.

But that's all changing. In an age when Madonna demands to be called "Esther," Demi celebrates Purim and seemingly everyone speaks a little Yiddish, it's never been hipper to be a Jew. All Access Presents: So Jewtastic celebrates everything you knew - and lots of stuff you didn't - about famous members of the Tribe.

The one-hour show will cover the trendy rise of Kabbalah, the new hip Jews in Hollywood, the marriage of Jews and hip hop, the connection between Jews and Heavy Metal and the domination of Jews in comedy. As a bonus, Jackie Mason schools the goyim on Yiddish terms that rock. OY GEVALT!

Thanks to a mensch-laden panel of pundits, yentas and a Rabbi or two, So Jewtastic will also circumcise the old ideas about Jewish mothers, ridiculous stereotypes and whether or not Jews know how to play sports (they do!) So put down that gefilte fish and pop open some Manischewitz, it's time to get your Jew on...VH1 style.

haha, i dont want to mow lawns, wash dishes, or pick fruit...

I wonder if this is typical VH1 feature - meaning a few short clips from various bands and a bunch of 'knowledgable' people expressing their sarcastic opinions and taking advantage to shine on silver screen.

I'm sorry but most vh1 programs are like that.

[beastie bee]

I'm going to wacth it!

[kleptomaniac]

i'll watch anything with the beasties in it!


"so jewtastic" is such a corny title though


so corntastic!




edit--vh1 is totally repeating themselves too....they had that 50 most "cheesetastic" music videos or whatever. (lots of beasties in that too)

[beastie bee]

is some one going to be hosting it?

[Zonkie]

a couple of hours ago So Jewtastic was on the guide, but when I turned to it, it was like Whackiest Celeb Families or something. It's on the schedual again tonight at 8 p.m. here, I hope it's actually what it says instead another whackiest family thing.

i've had an unhealthy obsession with jewish people sense i was 10. jewish people and gay guys.

but anymeow, that bagel part has always been one of my favorite things, they were so young and adrock looked so cute yelling "BAGELLLLLLS!"

[Chicka B]

Yeah, my friend called wanting to study for some semester final so I had to tell her to shut up when they came on.

[adrock14]

hahahahahahaha, chicka, i did that 2 my mom and got slapped for "back talking".

even though the beasties said it?

[Lihi]

Well, yeah...

During the L.t.I time they said (and did) a lot of retarted things.

Actually, they still say silly things from time to time, but - hey, we all do.

[kleptomaniac]

[SpuffyRJ]
