The genius of Sacha Cohen AKA Ali G |
|
HBO is replaying some of the old Ali G shows leading up to the new season which starts Sunday night. Anyway, Ali G hasn't been on in almost two years but watching it tonight made me remember how friggin funny it is.
For those that don't know, Ali G is a 30 minute comedy show. You can find more info on hbo.com. It's definately worth 30 minutes of your time.
On one episode he was interviewing Ed Meese and on another he had Brent Scowcroft on.

Had me rolling. The priest was so freakin uptight it was unbelievable. Now he's got Newt Gingrich on.

4. loved it when Borat shows the pictures of his wife to the folks at the |
|
minor league ball game, and sang the Khazak national anthem...
My favorite bit was when he went to the date maker and listed his criteria for a suitable mate as "must be able to push plow. Must he faithful or I will crush her"
too goddamn funny. I wish I still had HBO just for that show.

I posted the NY Times interview here the other day, but it was mostly ignored.

I think he's a genius. What I find most interesting is how we come off as a country. Fascinating stuff.

Borat singing the Kozikstan national anthem at the minor league ball game really gave me an Andy Kaufman flashback.
Brilliant stuff....
