The segment with the vet last night was the best of the season, so far. He was losing his patience with Ali G. The look on his face when Ali said something about "the cows pulling their things out" was hilarious.

It was funny to hear Pat Buchanan talk about Iraq having BLTs and that sometimes it was necessary to go to war over sandwiches.

If you have Kazaa or any other P2P software (bit torrent), you can find all of his BBC Ali G episodes (years before the HBO series) and some appearances on other shows. One great interview Ali G did was when he interviewed Posh Spice and David Beckham. I'm sure that there are other formats of the conan appearance out there as downloading realplayer files is difficult.

I saw his show for the first time the other day. The Gay guy interviewing the Pastor was friggin hilarious.

I loved those fat dancers too.


So let me get this straight....no pun there...."Ali G" is one character in this man's performances?

Yeah. He has three characters that comprise his whole show. Ali G, Borat and the gay German guy. What's really amazing is that he never ever breaks character, even in his reaction to these crazy people he is interviewing. Glad you enjoyed the show, especially the BBW dancers.

You can find James Broadwater's response to being on the show here. He was the candidate that Borat followed around.

"He will rule like Stalin."

Wow, I thought that he didn't come across bad at all on the show, and I understood why he said Jews would go to hell on the show and didn't think negatively of him for that. After reading the response though I'm a little scared of him. He's an FCC backer, the lunatic.

This guy is a major douchebag based on that link.

If Pat Buchanan(sp?) can role with Ali's wild interview, then what makes Broadwater thinks he's so important?

Awesome thinking. It's good to know that these kinds of people are running for office.

I was laughing my ass off at Borat's interview with this guy. His ten minutes of silence at the city council was hilarious.

"I will not leave until you swear on the eyes of your child that you will vote for him."

And the interview with Buchanan was classic.

On Saddam's Weapons of Mass Destruction, or BLTs:

Buchanan: "If he had mustard gas, no."

Ali G: "Let's say he didn't have mustard, and the BLTs just was plain. Would been able to go in then?"

Buchanan: "No."

Ali G: "Is it ever worth fighting a war over sandwhiches?"

I agree beefjerky. Pat just rolled with the punches and he was a good sport. Even when he joked about how he'll probably never be Prez because he would change the whole country.

On CNN after one of the days of the Democratic Convention, the commentators even joked around about it with Pat, and he was cool about it. It was funny.

I simply love this show! This season opened with two hilarious episodes, but the latest one was kinda disappointing. I just didn't find it quite as funny, and the people who were interviewed seemed like they knew who he was or something.

The gay guys dissing Paris Hilton, and then just completely changed their opinions because Bruno told them to was funny though. I liked Borat's singing too, it was hilarious when he got all the people to sing along, but then it got a bit awkward because I started to wonder if those guys sang along because they thought he was funny weird guy from Kazakhstan - or if they sang along because they were redneck racists. Not quite as funny.

And about James Broadwater, please, doesn't he have any distance to himself whatsoever?

I pre-ordered season 1 a week ago, I hope it arrives soon.

Throw the Jew down the well
So my country can be free
Grab him by the horns
And we'll have a big party


I was laughing my ass off at this segment, and the fact that the rednecks were digging it, and singing along made it even funnier.

This was the only part of this weeks show I laughed at.

I was laughing really hard at the gay guy segment (I can't remember that character's name).

"Ricky Martin-- keep him in the ghetto or train to Auschwitz?"

"Liza Minnelli-- Malignant tumor or benign?"



The honest reactions from that stylist guy from E! was hilarious. "Train to Auschwitz!"

I can't stop singing throw the jew down the well in my head. It was hilarious. Borat is the only character that consistently hits, in my opinion.

Just pathetic. So it was HBO and Sasha that made you say those stupid things, they are responsible for making you utter racist comments. ANd now he wants the FCC to satrengthen it's grip and expand it to squash any "anti-god" broadcast. What an asshat.
