Da Ali G Show DVD Question

I just received my Ali G DVD today and started watching episode 1. Throughout the Borat dating sequence, there is a lot of dirt and the quality is kind of poor. Is this just the way the sequence was filmed or is my DVD damaged?

Based on a review that I read on ign.com, I don't believe this is an video problem.

"The Ali G show is shot on digital video, and the picture is television quality. The Ali G segments look like a television newsmagazine, the Bruno bits look like they're straight off of Austrian E, and Borat's segments are washed-out and low-quality, as you might expect from a Central Asia TV broadcast. "

No problem and glad I could help. I'm just really looking forward to picking up that set myself. I saw "Borat" on Conan Obrien recently and I seriously couldn't stop laughing.
