Ali G

[oh_my_hat]

I've only heard good things about it and how it's the funniest show on T.V. I have 2 episodes on tape this and last week but haven't got around to watching it.

Is it worth the effort? He sounds like a british version of Norman Gunston.

 

[Pump]

I'm in the same boat as you. I haven't seen it, but I've heard great things about it

 

[NYMets]

I only saw one but it was a classic! The things he said to Harrods owner Mohamed Al Fayed made me do a double-take.

 

[Dippers Donuts]

It's a great show - you'll love it.

First episode wasn't mega funny but the second (and the rest) are classic.

Ali G to deadly serious FBI head honcho "So, tell me about studio 54...what about the basement, where they keep the aliens..."

Or words to that effect.

"It don't matter if your'e black, white... or Pakistani..."

Love it.

 

[Mr Ripper]

Yeah, the second show (last night's) was the highpoint of the series IMO. Many major cacks indeed.

 

[NYMets]

Good show.

Ali talking to some police dude about all these illegal weapons: "So...how much does one of dese go for, eh?"

 

[Bluey]

While attempting to jump a barrier at a protest, getting turned back by police... "Is it cause I is black?"

And the copper replying genuinely aghast, "No, nothing like that."

His surname is Cohen. He's a tall white Jewish guy.

HAHAHAHAHAAA

 

[Desredandwhite]

Aiiii.

Booyakasha.

Keepin' it real.

I iz happy so many of you iz gone out and bought my vid. You should ave just nicked it, eh?

Funny if you find it funny ;-) some will just not Get It.

 

[NICK THE PIE MAN]

Some of its funny,
but I think some people overrate it a bit.

 

[blurton]

Seriously, seriously funny stuff. Some similarities to Norman Gunstan. The guy from Tajikistan (spelling?) is probably even funnier than Ali. The funniest show in years.

Ah Borat,the newest & freshest character in years.


Dont miss the episode where Ali has a round table discussion
with animal rights activists about experimentation on animals.
Indescribable.

 

[Captain Sensible]

Borat is very funny.

Some guy told him he was retired, "Ah you are ******-Is that like *********?"
Talking to the animal rights protesters about fox shooting he tells them that its alright because he "doesnt shoot foxes-just bears" "why bears?" says the animal rights protester "for fun" says Borat.

Dziekuje

 

[brampta]

It is definately worth watching!

Even my parents are hooked on it - we were talking about it around the dinner table last night and mum was crying coz she laughed so hard.

Monday night's was an absolute belter.

 

[Rocco Jones]

Ali G is the greatest. It is without a doubt the funniest show on TV (yeah even funnier than Shasta and Passions!).
Bourat is retired. The guy played Bourat before Ali G was created, we are a couple of series behind England so I hope we get the new shows after the repeats are finished. In the new episodes there will be no Bourat which sucks but I'm sure it will still be awesome.
There are rumours that there will be an Ali G movie, with Cohen playing his different characters. Ali G in a secret agent kind of a movie like Austin Powers would be awesome. Have you seen the video he took to Cannes, that was awesome, can't believe no one gave him the 400 million pounds.

It's not rumours it's fact. Some notes on the movie, thanks to aligonline.net...

"The film Ali G In Da House is being made by the team behind Four Weddings And A Funeral and Notting Hill.

Sacha Baron Cohen (Ali G), 30, is writing and producing the £5 million comedy"

"Ali G becomes an MP in his new movie.

The spoof rapper even has sex in the Cabinet room at Downing Street in the film.

Ali G In Da House is due to start shooting soon (as of April 2001).

An insider told The Mirror: "Ali just can't resist having sex on the famous table. He does it while Tony Blair is meeting the American president in the adjoining room".

Embarrassingly, thanks to a **** up with some microphones, his panting gets broadcast all round the building."

It's due for relase in the UK in March 2002 i think...

It is seriously THE funniest show ever. Can't wait for the new series'. Apparently the ABC have them in the can, but I have no idea why they aren't airing them????

Did anyone else see the transcript of his interview with Elton John? Where he kept talking about anal sex? Elton walked off in the end.

"I is ere wiv none uver dan da batty boy of pop, John Elton. Respect."

"It's Elton John actually Ali"

"Aiih, whatever. So John, is you always been a batty boy coz I erd dat you woz once married - although I also erd dat da missus was mingin?"

"Well Ali if you mean have I always been gay, then probably. Deep down I was but I probably fought it in my younger days."

"Fer real, but when you was gettin jiggy did you fink about people like James Dean and that Johnny Rottweiler who was Tarzan so you wouldn't end up wiv a floppy or woz you trisexual and didn't care where you was stickin Mr Biggy?"

Classic stuff.......I'm laughing as I type!

I loved Ali G at the Cannes pr0n Festival.

I would kill for a gig like that.

 

[The Hippie]

The funniest bit is in the last show of this series, when Borat goes to a rowing reagtta. He congratulates the winning eight (men) with a traditional Eastern European kiss on both cheeks, then gets to the female cox (eh?) and shakes her hand!! Flippin' p*ss funny!!!

Respect
