Plot

A gentle comedy about a Jewish character who keeps giving people advice, i.e. kibitzing. His advice creates all kinds of complications, especially after he comes into a large sum of money to dispose of as he pleases. The character is played by Harry Green, who specialised in playing Jewish comedic characters. [4]

Cast

gollark: It's not, though. It's such a *government* solution to a problem which isn't there.
gollark: <@!151391317740486657> GMT bad, has daylight saving time.
gollark: Time zones bad, UTC good.
gollark: Macs are definitely not that good. MacBooks have horrendous thermal throttling issues because they add moar coar and stuff without improving already inadequate fanless cooling.
gollark: You could use base64 with - and _ instead of + and /.
