Seinfeld

[richieb]

Which of George, Elaine and Kramer are supposed to be Jewish in the show?

[froggequene]

Seinfeld himself is Jewish

[richieb]

Thankyou, but that is the obvious one...I'm wondering about the other three (see the original question)...

[jimmer]

all of them

[richieb]

Do you have any proof?

[Moog]

George was definitely Jewish and has a very stereotypically jewish mother, but I reckon all of them were

[nicola_red]

I always thought they all were, but then their confusion during the episode 'The Bris', during which they agree to become godparents to a couple's newborn -including getting the Mohel and holding the baby for the circumcision - made me think they weren't after all.

George is. Not sure about Kramer. If you remember there was a running joke about Jewish characters falling for Elaine because of her 'shix appeal' (shixa being a non-jewish lady though I've probably spelt it wrong. Therefore I don't think Elaine was Jewish.
