Jews in Space and Bagels All Over the Place

As Rosh Hashanah approaches, the Bagels are hunkering down with some new Jewy series’, and getting contemplative about redemption. Esther, who grew up watching Holocaust movies in school, considers whether documentaries — including one about “Iron Dome” from new streaming service IZZY — might be #toosoon or #tooclose to reality for her, and Erin geeks out over Instagram posts from Broadway actors doing fun impressions including one of Mandy Patinkin. Both are looking forward to a Black Jew in space in the new show “Away” (on Netflix) and exploring how the BBC series “The Jewish Enquirer” (on Amazon) channels “Curb Your Enthusiasm” and trolls Jewish journalism at the same time. And in anticipation of the new season of “The Boys” (on Amazon and from Seth Rogen and Evan Goldberg) arriving just before the High Holy Days, Esther and Erin make it Jewy.
