I don't understand the analogy. What Jewish characters are on most Cartoons ?

Also, your reasoning is fractured. "Greek" means 'from' someplace, but Jewish doesn't.

If it's true that there are Jewish characters in most cartoons, then you'd want to ask why there are not Baptist, Catholic, Baha'i, Hindu, Yo Tai, Methodist, Amish, Lutheran, Quaker, Mormon, Muslim, Adventist, or Wiccan.

Asking for Greek, Russian, Jamaican, Japanese, Maori, Uighur, Arab, Ethiopian, Polynesian, French, German, or Irish is what some people call 'non sequitur', but to me it's just fractured logic.

And for that matter . . . how would you count a Greek Jew ?

Most cartoons that are made, like the Rugrats or South Park or Family Guy, are a reflection of modern society as seen through an intentionally distorted prism. The makers of these cartoons have experience with Jews on a day-to-day basis since a disproportionate percentage of workers in Hollywood and Silicon Valley are Jews. As a result, there is usually one Jewish character or jokes at Jews' expense in the cartoon's alternate prism of reality. Conversely, there is not a large Greek population in these same areas, so it does not factor into the cartoons. It is also noteworthy that most families in cartoons (if those cartoons are made for an American audience) are majority Christian for the same reason; it is a reflection of the society where the cartoonist comes from.
