Yoo-Hoo, Mrs. Goldberg plot

Shortly after the Wall Street Crash heralded the beginning of 'The Great Depression', the radio serial 'The Rise of the Goldbergs' debuted. The story of a Jewish family in The Bronx in New York, anchored by the bold, optimistic mother Molly, was unprecedentedly popular. Gertrude Berg not only starred but also wrote the screenplays for all episodes of the series that became a blueprint for every sitcom. This documentary examines Gertrude's personal life, her greatest achievements, the fight against the witch-hunt against alleged communists and the influence Gertrude and Molly had and have on American culture.
