n this episode of the Emmy-nominated television series, Molly (Gertrude Berg) and the family prepares to attend the synagogue to observe Yom Kippur.
Not rated. Black and white.
I'm now 73 yrs. old. I used to watch this show when I was maybe three or four. Both my grandmothers died before I was born. I had no idea what having a grandmother would be like. Somehow, when Molly would talk to "me" from her window, this little Catholic girl, felt as if a grandmother would be like her. A few years ago, on a retro cable channel, "The Goldbergs" showed up. As I passed the television screen, my heart smiled and my husband was shocked to hear me say, "Aw, look...it's my grandmother!" A person sometimes never knows what kind of comfort they give, without even knowing and just being themselves. God bless you, Molly Goldberg.
A great comfort show that reminds me when my family was very close.
the tears flow when i watch this episode
The show was written by Gertrude (over 5000 scripts): debut was on radio in 1929 & it took some work to convince Ms Goldberg to take the show to TV.
A Beautiful episode.
I can just imagine non-Jews living in the middle of the country watching this show. For many it would have been their first exposure to Jewish life, and how important it was (and honestly still is) to show Jewish life as a perfectly normal thing that deserves respect.
עם ישראל חי ❤️
Loved watching this as a 2 year old.
Oy...such memories ! Yoo hoo !! Lucky me...a childhood in such a neighborhood. . I miss my childhood. My neighbor used to laugh when I would do the "Yoo Hoo" out my window to the alley between our houses. When I grew up and was starting out on my own...my dear neighbor Mrs.Liebowitz gave me some kitchen utensils...I still have the wire cheese slicer. I went to my piano teachers sons Bar Mitzva. We joined the Jewish Community Center. I can remember some Yiddish...just from being a part of such a sweet neighborhood. I attended Sabbath dinners. I am so lucky. My father had been a goyum as a young boy. I grew up believing Jewish people were very special. Anti semitism just does not make any sense.
I 💖 watching this old stuff!
It's funny that commercials are an "important message." 😃
Forever fabulous
Love the accents.
Can't help but love it 😁
Here because of Billy Dee Williams on the club random podcast with bill Maher.
Thanks for the upload. I hope for more, if further episodes can be found.
Good episode. My favorite was the fat farm episode.

me too lol never heard of this show
Me too

Awesome
The Goldbergs lost its charm when - during the final season - they moved to Long Island. The same thing happened to "I Love Lucy'' when the Ricardos moved to Connecticut.
This is my favorite Goldbergs episode. I wonder if the Yom Kippur service was filmed in a real synagogue.
When the Bronx was Jewish, so long ago!
The hazzan has a beautiful voice
Dies anybody notice that Molly always wants to be heard and her 2 cents. Ive noticed that Molly gets upset that nothing goes her way, She wont let anyone have a chance to make up their minds. When Jake knows the right way of doing things Molly gets upset.
Molly is going to ruin her nail polish trying to get her neighbor zipped into that dress!
If this was a modern tv show, maybe, hopefully, Judaism/Jewishness would be normalized in the US and there wouldn't be so much antisemitism.
Beautiful kol nidre service in temple
Was this the first use of the word Slenderella
But where is Philip Loeb???
He was blacklisted. Gertrude Berg tried to get him back but the accusation that he was a communist stuck and she had to find another actor to play Jake Goldberg. Loeb ended up killing himself in 1955 (aside from being blacklisted, he had a mentally ill son). All in all, a tragic story. Berg believed Loeb to be the perfect Jake Goldberg, and I agree.
It was a very different time in this country when this ethnic show was on.
Has there ever been another TV show with such an obvious Jewish cast?
我问他是不是就
Drama? Comedy?
