Question:

I have been watching Garfield and Friends a lot recently. Normally, I am taken in by the charming character dynamic and the funny satire, but I also noticed a few odd character choices. Most of these can be found in Garfield's sister-segment: US Acres, and said character choices are borderline stereotypical. 

Of course, I am not basing this assumption on facts, but on observations of common themes and characterizations in the entertainment industry. Like, it is obvious that Bo (the male sheep) is a dumb surfer dude, but that is not what I am referring to. I am referring to the character Wade (the duck with a life saver around his waist). 

On the surface, he is just a craven duck. But again, after reconsidering the common themes and characterizations that are often found in the entertainment industry, I noticed that some of them applied to his character, and I kind of felt like it was an odd choice on the creators' part. I don't know if I am the only one who has noticed this, so that's why I'm asking. 

My question is this: Is Wade a Jewish stereotype in the show? Like, it feels like they willingly gave Wade a Jewish accent just because he is a neurotic character (pertaining to the stereotype that Jewish people are neurotic). It just feels way too deliberate to be a coincidence.
