...we're not a hive mind, bb; I personally want to marry a Jewish guy, and I don't care if he's pasty-white. (That's not to say I would say "no" if I had a shot at, say, Oded Fehr, though. ...y'know, if I had a time machine to go back to before he was married and stuff.)

Speaking of: there are some damn fine members of the Tribe out there. (http://kita0610.livejournal.com/690520.html) ;-)

This is a good list. I think I will bookmark it to look at after every Ashkenazi wedding that I go to...

Amazingly, not only do I know who nearly every person on that list is (excepting Sirat Sabahat and Michael Landon) I also agree with every person's placement on it.

That being said, with the exception of John Stewart, Scott Caan and Michael Rosenbaum, none of these men are 'on TV'; they're all movie actors. And John Stewart is on cable and Micahel Rosenbaum has only just come back to TV (and on one of the more brain-dead shows I have seen in a long time). So we're down to Scott Caan as the only Jewish man on TV?

This needs to be remedied. Time to make a stink about there not being enough Jews in TV

[darlas-mom.livejournal.com]

It is a fantastic list- and if you go through them, there's actually more in the comments, with pictures and everything! It was AWESOME.

I think most of the women are on TV, and Oded Fehr actually does a lot of television (he was on "Charmed," had the lead in two shows I'm proud to own on VHS- "UC: Undercover" and "Presidio Med"-, was in the pilot of "Law & Order: Los Angeles" last fall, and had a recurring role on "V" this season as an ex-Mossad [a crush- I has it; in case you couldn't tell *g*]), and I know a couple of the aforementioned people in the comments were/are on TV as well. But otherwise, yes, you make a fairly compelling point.

The only other TV Jew I can think of at the moment (who's male and hot) is Daren Kagasoff (who even plays a Jewish character who is lusted after by pretty much every girl he meets and has an Israeli father), and...I usually can't mention that, because he's on one of my pathetic guilty pleasure shows I can't publicly admit to watching.

I agree. Clearly, something needs to be done about this. I wonder what my rabbi would think if I tried to put together a youth theatre group for the kids in my daughter's yeshiva? (One of them could grow up to be on TV, you never know!)

[darlas-mom.livejournal.com]

OHOHOH, I just thought of a couple more! Jason Segel and Josh Radnor of "How I Met Your Mother!" I love them. (And it annoys me that Jason Segel and Alyson Hannigan- real-life Jews- play a married couple of goyim in Manhattan. C'mon. Marshall and Lily could've been Jewish!*) David Duchovny (though he is also only on cable TV these days). David Schwimmer (whose career appears to have died, what the heck?). David Arquette (most recent TV work was "Pushing Daisies," though and that's been a while). Zach Braff (couldn't tell you what he's done since "Scrubs," though). Adam Brody (is "The O.C" still on?). James Callis (I think he's still surfing on his "Battlestar Galactica" fame, though). Josh Charles (he's on a show I don't watch, but still!). Rob Morrow and David Krumholtz! (...is "Numb3rs" still on? Oy.)

...still not very many, alas. ::sigh:: I tried!

*One of my chief wonks is not only a dearth of Jewish actors on TV, but also the startling lack of Jewish characters, particularly on shows where you'd really expect them to be there. How is Manhattan so Jew-less on television?

[honestys-easy.livejournal.com]

Sadly Numb3rs isn't still on, or else I would have been bouncing up and down going "David Krumholtz! David Krumholtz!" Rob Morrow is currently on the show "The Whole Truth" (idk if it's been cancelled yet or not, but it started this season). Is Rob Jewish in real life, though? I know the Epps family was Jewish on Numb3rs but I didn't know his actual status.

[darlas-mom.livejournal.com]

Yep. (http://www.juf.org/tweens/celebrity.aspx?id=60856) (Link to his profile on Jewish United Fund's "Guess Who's Jewish?" section.) Wikipedia calls him "of Jewish ancestry," which usually means "had one goy parent." (In Rob's case, his dad.)
