While I dislike the "corrupt Jewish businessman" trope, Watts' embracing his newly discovered Judaism brought happiness and joy to my heart that surprised even me. My heart sang when he ahowed up at Shabbos dinner. I think it was the happiness on his face that was so meaningful. I had always gotten a Jewish vibe from Watts, mainly because his mannerism remind be of Robert Klein. Baruch HaShem!
The particulars of Jewish traditions, especially amongst the first generation out of Europe, was very well done. Unfortunately , the story of the husband abandoning his Old World wife was not uncommon. A shande.

Yes, its not Neil Simon's best and, yes, he used all of the jokes from the "In Case I Need Firewood" drawer, but this was so funny with the perfect cast hamming it up. It was.a great send-up of Casablanca, Maltese Falcon, and The Big Sleep. Definitely worth seeing.
Almost as good as "Wee Jock's Lament". I wish they hadn't ended this episode as they did. Just sayin'.
