Gerald Broflovski

Gerald Broflovski is a character in the animated series South Park. He is Kyle Broflovski's dad, and he is a lawyer.

Appearance
He wears a pink yarmulke, a beige jacket with a blue shirt underneath, and forest green trousers. He has brown hair, sideburns, a moustache which is separated in the middle, and a short, pointed beard. He has never been seen without his yarmulke on, but screenshots imply that he is bald underneath it.

Personality
Gerald seems to be the most caring and rational of all the male parents in South Park. He is concerned with Kyle learning about moral values, and about the environment and current events.

He is typically protrayed to be kind and friendly, though he can be stubborn, sarcastic and impolite at times.

In the episode Red Man's Greed, he confesses to Randy that he has a gambling problem.

Occupation
Gerald is a lawyer and the city attorney. He has handled such legal matters as Getting Chef's name put on the album for Stinky Britches in Chef Aid. He also helped Eric Cartman to successfully sue Stan after he called him an "Ass sucker". Then everyone started suing each other, causing the school to go bankrupt.

Family
Gerald's surname suggets Polish/Slavic ancestry.

Sheila Broflovski
She is his overweight, overbearing wife. THey seem to have a comfortable relationshp, though he frequently gets annoyed by her habit of making a mountain out of a molehill, and her general nosiness. Curiously, though, he didn't mind it when she had sex with Chef in Chef Aid, and cheerfully asked her how she liked it after Chef had left. Also, he couldn't get aroused by her in Spontaneous Combustion, but later got turned on by two young women who were angry at Randy Marsh. This indicates that due to her appearance, or more likely her behaviour, he finds her unattractive.

Kyle Broflovski
He is Gerald's only biological son. They have a strong bond with each other, and Gerald generally tries his best to teach Kyle good morals.

Ike Broflovski
His adopted son. He is never shown to have much interaction with him, but it is clear from the episodes centred on the family, such as Ike's Wee-wee, and It's Christmas in Canada, that he loves him very much.

Gerald's extended family has never been seen, but he has a nephew in law on Sheila's side, a dead mother in law, and apparently a sister in law. It is also possible that Eric Cartman is his stepson, as suggested in Cartman's Mom is Still a Dirty Slut.
