Da Ali G Show is a British satirical television series created by and starring English comedian Sacha Baron Cohen. In the series, Baron Cohen plays three unorthodox journalists: faux-streetwise poseur Ali G, Kazakh reporter Borat Sagdiyev, and gay Austrian fashion enthusiast Brüno Gehard. These characters conduct real interviews with unsuspecting people, many of whom are celebrities, high-ranking government officials, and other well-known figures, during which they are asked absurd and ridiculous questions.

User Reviews

Sacha Baron Cohen is very talented, but gets old. I’ll always blame this for having to hear tired Borat impressions for most of the Aughts.

Good show for edgelords, teens, posers, young potheads. Every d-bag in college loved it. I didn’t laugh, but I’m not the target audience.

Comically and hilarious, one of my favorites from my teenage years

Love him or hate him, this is where Sacha Baron Cohen began the very specific thing he does. Illuminating, funny, tremendously uncomfortable

Irreverent, politically incorrect, hilarious. No one does satire like Sacha Baron Cohen.

Hilarious satire, brilliant humor, and spot-on social commentary.

The OG of fake interviewers. While the commentary is often crass, there is a truth behind knocking down certain people a peg or two.

Doesn’t get much cleverer (sic) than this.

Funny. Maybe a bit of its time. SBC is a comedy genius

Lots of classic bits and it’s honestly better in short burst. Still very funny
