Say Shalom to My Little Friends: Pacino Heads Band of Nazi Hunters in New Amazon Series

[additional-authors]

The Bagel Report


Nazis in America? A group of diverse Nazi-hunters led by Al Pacino? Audiences are split on “Hunters,” Amazon Prime’s latest series from David Weil and produced by Jordan Peele. Erin and Esther, who both have complicated feelings, do a deep dive into the many layers and conversations spawned by the “Jewsploitation noir” show, including why it gives Erin nightmares and how it’s contributing to secular Judaism‘s visibility and representation onscreen.

**CAUTION: This episode contains spoilers from Episode 1 of “Hunters” because Erin is a loose cannon and it’s conversationally helpful, but (mostly) refrains from other spoilers because Esther’s committed to your experience as a potential viewer. You’re welcome.**
