A woman is talking about wanting to impress her Jewish in-laws/boyfriend’s parents. They’re at a funeral or temple or Seder? She tells the parents to ask her how she thinks the event is going. Her answer is “shofar, sho good.” And the parents are delighted and tell everyone!

What am I thinking of??

There was an episode of Northern Exposure whose title was close to that. It was the one where Fleischman has a Christmas Carol series of ghosts but for Yom Kippur.

Maybe it was in this one?
