Talk:Charlie Eppes

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

[edit] Jewishness

Should he really be in the 'fictional jews'-section? I can't recall him ever being mentioned as a jew - might just be my memory, though. Could anyone confirm this, and maybe source it?

They're Jewish. See Provenance. Kolindigo 16:59, 13 February 2007 (UTC)

It's a sticky question. According to the creators, the family's religion never has and probably never will be explored on the show, that's not the point of the series. We do know some member of the Eppes family fled the Germans during WWII, and at least one member of this extended family never found her close family after the war. --LadyShelley 23:44, 13 February 2007 (UTC)

I point you to Charlie and Don's exchange over why they were never religious. They're Jewish. Kolindigo 08:12, 14 February 2007 (UTC)

And in the same exchange, Don says something about Margaret always having a Christmas tree. As far as heritage is concerned, at least Alan's side of the family is Jewish (as the aunt mentioned in Provenance was on his side of the family); they are not practicing however. Not sure how this affects the original question as I don't know what the parameters for the category entail. --LadyShelley 19:23, 14 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Lemon Merraigne Pie Addiction

I think that from the tone in the voice, he was joking about Charlie's addiction. Therefore, should it be under the trivia section? -Diabolos 20:21, 2 November 2006 (UTC)

I'm working on a whole re-write of this and the other character pages so they are not "in universe" for more on this see the main NUMB3RS article discussion. --LadyShelley 04:26, 3 November 2006 (UTC)
