The special–taped August 15-16 at the Hudson Theatre in New York–runs 89 minutes in length. Antisemitism and Israel play a substantial role in the new comedy special.

We Were the Lucky Ones: A Story of Survival

We Were the Lucky Ones brings Georgia Hunter’s bestselling novel to the small screen, depicting one family’s survival during the Holocaust. If you’re going to watch the series, do not wait for all episodes to be available. Watch episodes as the air or maybe even a few episodes at a time. Much like A Small Light last year, I made the mistake of binge-watching the press screeners in a single day. Some of the press…

Testament: The Story of Moses Has Some Major Flaws

Testament: The Story of Moses does its best to give a thrilling recreation of the Exodus from Egypt but the docudrama has its flaws. What do The Ten Commandments, The Prince of Egypt, and Testament: The Story of Moses all have in common? No matter how much research or care goes into the project, they all end up with their own flaws. All things considered, it could be much worse because it isn’t the awful…

Siege of Masada: Smithsonian Doc Is More of a Tie-In

Siege of Masada is a Smithsonian Channel documentary that plays into the corporate umbrella by tying in a CBS miniseries, The Dovekeepers. There is a universe where I am ascending Masada today for the first time since going on Birthright Israel with Mayanot in June 2007. Alas, it was just not meant to be during this week’s trip to Israel. Next to viewing panoramic views of the Old City in Jerusalem, there’s nothing more breathtaking…
