I read a long time ago that Fran Drescher of The Nanny fame was huge in replacing those audiences with extras instead of random people.

No, it's not. The simple truth is, Jewish culture is very absent from Germany. You hear about cases of antisemitism, but you barely learn anything about what Jews are doing. There is more coverage on Islamic topics than Jewish routines in German media.
I think for most people the primary source of knowledge about jewish culture nowadays are hollywood-movies and TV-Series like "The Nanny", not the actual people themselves.
The Nanny was not that bad! Not Game of Thrones, but there's a place for those kind of sitcoms.
