These Religious Jewish Guys Really Hate HDTV
>> Friday, June 5, 2009

In this HDTV commercial that some love and others really despise, a throng of religious Jewish men sing and dance about their fears that the picture quality on Yes HDTV is so clear that it is a sin.
Here's what they are singing:
Be warned holy land
of the hi definition
go out and erase this "toeivah" (sin)
Oy Vey, the "toeivah" is here
He said Oy Vey
now the detail's so clear
YES brought HD
Groise Tate (Father in heaven) please help
It's a "broch" this HD on YES
Gevald it's Sedom and Gemorah
HDTV it's against the torah
HDTV oy voi voi voi
Now the shikses look well
you will all go to hell
Or in Hebrew Yishmor HoKel (g-d save us)
Cause the HD is now on YES
The commercial has caused a great deal of controversy in Israel where it originally aired. Though we certainly don't like to see people get offended, the day that a cable TV commercial is the biggest controversy in Israel will be a great day indeed.
