All three shows have "brought an exhilarating and enriching specificity to traditionally generic small-screen Jewish storytelling," says Daniel Fienberg, adding: "This is a column about a particularly fruitful season in distinctively Jewish TV, a surprising anomaly for an industry with no shortage of Jewish talent — but it's really an argument for the artistic advantages of specificity. The biggest mistake the pioneers of early television made was to confuse the 'broad' in 'broadcasting' with 'general,' and TV has been struggling ever since to recognize that you reach a wider audience through something that's authentic and precise than something that's fabricated and supposedly universal. As myopic as the medium has been when it comes to race and gender, religion has somehow also been left in the dark."
