In the sketches, Myers plays a stereotypical Jewish middle-aged woman with an exaggerated New York accent who sports long, painted fake nails; much gold jewelry; gaudy sweaters; large dark glasses; and big hair, which she constantly adjusts. This character was a spoof on Myers' real-life mother-in-law at the time, Linda Richman.
In this episode, when Linda brings family friend Helen Hunt on the show, they chat about how Helen is a quarter Jewish and how Holly Hunter had it easy in The Piano since she didn't have to memorize lines.
Enjoy!
