Da Ali G Show - Season 1
Description
Comedian Sacha Baron Cohen appears as Ali G, a rapper-wannabe from Staines. Ali G has his own TV show, where he interviews people on serious subjects. They're not aware that Ali G is just a character and they're being set up as part of a comedy act. Cohen also appears in two other guises: as Borat, a Kazakhstani reporter, and Bruno, a gay Austrian fashionista. Hilarity ensues.

The best part of the show is the talented, Andy Kaufman-like star, who never breaks character while engaging in real-life dialogue about current events.
June 13, 2018
Technically, the show appears ready for public access TV.

There's no question that Sacha Baron Cohen is talented... But the concept is hardly original to an American audience and, unfortunately, plays well under the acceptable level of greatness we've all come to expect from HBO.

The banter is always fresh and entertaining, and Baron Cohen is a master of manipulating the interview.
June 14, 2018
Cohen's skill at improvisation isn't just impressive, it's mind-boggling, and the best moments in the show come when he's building off some bit of information he's just stumbled on.
June 13, 2018
Da Ali G Show turns American luminaries into stooges, but Cohen disappears so effectively into his characters that it's easy to see how they get duped.
June 14, 2018
What Cohen's characters lack in originality, they make up for in execution.
June 13, 2018
It's the interaction Cohen's Ali and other characters have with regular people and figures of importance that makes this an edgy, silly riot.
June 14, 2018
The funniest thing about the show is that people think he's legit in every single persona.
June 13, 2018
Borat Saddiyev, obliviously embarking on a discovery of American customs, is by far Cohen's most endearing, and ultimately kindest, character.
June 13, 2018
The funniest thing about that talk part (or the unfunniest, more likely, to anyone trapped in Ali G's interview lair) is that only the host knows for sure that it's all a big put-on. How he gets them to come on is the mystery.

[Ali G is] one of the most rip-roaringly funny TV characters ever to come out of Britain.
