HaYehudim Ba’im (The Jews are Coming) is an Israeli satirical television series created by Asaf Beiser and Natalie Marcus. Episodes are comprised of sketches that range in content from Biblical stories to Jewish communities around the world, the Holocaust, Zionism, and modern Israeli politics and culture. The show’s cutting humor uses satire as a way to hold a mirror up to Israeli society and Jewish life, draw our attention to our “blind spots,” and present a critique of current events in Israel, Jewish tradition, and history. Israeli humor is generally brash, unapologetic, and sophisticated. HaYehudim Ba’im embodies this comedic tradition.
