Borat and Bruno please

2025-06-18 20:01:13 +0000 UTCAFAIK Sasha doesnt break character, from the time he met the guests until the time he left them. Most people thought he was legit that way until he blew up!
James
2025-06-08 16:55:05 +0000 UTCin my opinion borat is better
Paul Finn
2025-05-18 10:54:58 +0000 UTCYou need to discover Philomena Cunk.

2025-05-15 06:20:34 +0000 UTConly cos its all cut off.. the replies are what make it funny. It just cuts out after every build up.. confused

2025-05-14 21:30:17 +0000 UTCis not carrot or the stick? so you do that with carrot or you beat with the stick. reward or punishment to get the outcome you want

2025-05-14 19:34:32 +0000 UTC25:35 An incompetent president? " You know, with the way ( things are heading )" ...... We all know what Jess was going to say there !

2025-05-14 11:16:27 +0000 UTCGreat reaction guys! Very interested to see where the Ali G rabbit hole takes you
Daz Parker
2025-05-14 06:13:38 +0000 UTCThese are not the best Ali G clips. I don't know if they're on YouTube but the early British ones are much better.
Matt King
2025-05-14 04:42:50 +0000 UTCjess' reaction to a certain scene would be wild, no spoilers but that would be something she'd never forget i rek.

2025-05-13 23:35:30 +0000 UTCShould watch the movie “the brothers Grimsby” is a low budget English comedy movie with sacha, the guy who plays Ali G
RJ
2025-05-13 23:18:20 +0000 UTCBrilliant Ali G! The one with david and victoria beckham is a good one👍

2025-05-13 22:24:11 +0000 UTCAli g talks to an expert about drugs. The best
Neil
2025-05-13 22:05:06 +0000 UTCthese are some of the weakest gags taken out of context, you really need full sketches
Dave Roberts
2025-05-13 21:00:29 +0000 UTCI think the first shows he did on the 11’oclock Show in the UK were better so I would suggest watching those. They were more honest so the guests thought he was really genuine; whereas these went abit too much over the top at times… still funny though. Sacha is very clever, I believe they used to tell the guests he was doing a Children’s TV Show, and they purposely used the name Ali due to it’s religious connotations, as they thought this would make the guests less likely to question him
Aaron Page
2025-05-13 20:41:16 +0000 UTCIf you want them to react to something you need to add it to the Playlist as per home page info, then it's put in the mix for a future voting process :)

2025-05-13 20:09:10 +0000 UTCSacha does another character called 'Bruno' who is a gay fashion icon, some of the sketches are very very funny and the movie would blow your mind!
Simon Cross
2025-05-13 19:51:27 +0000 UTCIm sure he used the tried and tested "im from the BBC" it seems to open a lot of doors in America
Custard
2025-05-13 19:37:44 +0000 UTCYou should watch his Borat 2nd film. He basically gets Rudi rudy Guiliana to try it on with a teen
Karl shields
2025-05-13 19:34:23 +0000 UTCReacting to Philomena Cunk would be epic.
Graeme Frew
2025-05-13 18:55:08 +0000 UTCYou should definitely watch the shows. Seeing the interviews play out and the interviewees getting more and more bemused is the best thing about Ali G
Paul Cole
2025-05-13 18:52:05 +0000 UTCYeah, watching tiny snippets of full interviews is no way to watch Ali G. They need to dive into the shows proper.
Right Said Brett
2025-05-13 18:16:41 +0000 UTCSacha stays in character the whole time and the interviewees are told that it's a serious interview but that the interviewer is not very bright. Furthermore, the broadcast interviews are heavily edited down, as Sacha will interview them for an hour or so and mostly ask sensible questions, but will then scatter a few absurd questions throughout. He does this so that the interviewee doesn't realise that they're being setup.
Right Said Brett
2025-05-13 18:15:50 +0000 UTCThe original Philomena Cunk
Erica
2025-05-13 18:13:04 +0000 UTCClips kind of ruin it. Some of those interviews are fantastic but it’s edited out. Still funny though
Chris
2025-05-13 18:12:16 +0000 UTCWas great seeing you both cracking up at some of the clips.. I'd forgotten how funny some of them were 😂 I believe Jess is right - Sacha stays in character the whole time that the interviewee is there, even when the cameras aren't rolling. As another poster said, the interviewee was probably told they were going to be interviewed by a British 'youth TV' presenter. I seem to recall most of the interviews from the second series of Da Ali G Show being with American public figures, as the British ones already knew it was a set-up by then.

2025-05-13 18:05:01 +0000 UTChttps://youtu.be/9n_C7Q5xmTc?si=jy5lseda-I8il5oo would you react to this Borat video? It's probably the funniest, he breaks character twice
Oliver Ramsay
2025-05-13 17:53:47 +0000 UTCYou've never heard of the analogy of the carrot and the stick?! It's a metaphor revolving around leading a donkey where you want it to go, whilst sitting on its back; you hold out a stick, with a carrot attached to it by string and the donkey keeps walking forward, in an attempt to eat the carrot.
Right Said Brett
2025-05-13 17:51:54 +0000 UTCSacha has taken some huge risks with his multitude of characters, including in Redneck towns. Great reaction.
Thomas
2025-05-13 17:48:30 +0000 UTCWould love to see some more Ali G - Him interviewing police officers about drugs & weapons was so funny (2 separate clips)
James Welsh
2025-05-13 17:44:43 +0000 UTCIt’s a must.
Thomas
2025-05-13 17:42:55 +0000 UTCYou'll love Who Is America? by Sacha Cohen, the characters and setups are next level. They're not on YouTube though so all I could add was one promo scene to the playlist as a starting point.
Terrahawk
2025-05-13 17:39:18 +0000 UTCPlease check out the ali g vet interview, and the religion interview
Jack Veazey
2025-05-13 17:34:36 +0000 UTCThey must have said that there's gonna be an interview for some UK youth show to "connect with the kids".
Dandelion
2025-05-13 17:32:28 +0000 UTCI'd forgotten just how funny Ali G was, great, funny reaction to great, funny material :) FYI most terrorists that they allow on planes as well as other scenarios are actually known to them, they just don't see them as a danger until it's too freaking late!
Brucey Mitchell (Cheeky)
2025-05-13 17:32:28 +0000 UTCYou should react to the other characters he does like Baron

2025-05-13 17:25:47 +0000 UTCHis interview with the Beckhams is one of my favourites. The full thing is on the official Comic Relief: Red Nose Day channel on YT.
Sigma
2025-05-13 17:21:58 +0000 UTCYeah, the best part of these are in long form. The back and forth. These clips do the show a disservice.
Jamie
2025-05-13 17:07:17 +0000 UTCIt's so funny that he is talking to smart people who think he is dumb, and that they have to talk to him like he is a child, when really he is the more intelligent of the two and he's fucking with them. Absolutely hilarious.
Steve Small
2025-05-13 16:59:32 +0000 UTCThere are much higher quality version of those Ali G clips around, I've seen them
Moody Marco
2025-05-13 16:56:16 +0000 UTCThis should be fun. There is better quality out there for most of these but posted individually. Doesn’t stop it being funny though haha
