5 out of 5 stars Hilarious    October 3, 2008
M. Sorenson (San Francisco, CA USA)
Hilarious. Do you like those uncomfortable situations in Borat and The Office?, where you have to laugh because of how awkward you feel, even as a viewer. That is the comedy in the Da Ali G show.


5 out of 5 stars Absolutely fall down rolling on the floor hilarious!    August 7, 2008

A friend of mine made me sit down and watch this show when it was on HBO years ago. At first I didn't understand where this guy was coming from, but then I got it and had to watch every episode she had on tape. This is without a doubt the best in "cringe television".

Some of my favorite parts include: an interview with Andy Rooney (60 Minutes) that just goes horribly wrong when Ali G accuses Andy of being "racialist", a drunk Borat learns how to become a wine taster and then tearfully tells his hosts that "his mother didn't love him and said she wishes she had been raped by somebody else", or when Bruno is talking to a seller at a gun show and asks if it's OK to put the barrel of the gun "up the poopenshaften", and keeps referring to the seller as gay...to which the seller makes it very clear to Bruno that "I'm not gay, and if you ask me another question about being gay, I'm gonna every tooth down your throat".

Simply put this is one of the funniest shows ever, mostly because a lot of it is made up on the spot depending on what the hapless person being interviewed says as does. As Jim Norton says "Put on your laughing hat".

5 out of 5 stars Ali G show is the best for laughs    June 8, 2008
Andrew Youssi (Nashville, TN USA)
This series is just hilarious - If I ever am in need of a laugh, I know that these are the DVDs to go to. There is nothing on TV now that makes me laugh this hard! It's great to see some of the earlier appearances of Borat, and Ali G is such a great platform for awkward interviews. Love it!!


1 out of 5 stars Wrong disc in package    April 22, 2008

I ordered this awhile ago, and never watched it until today. The second season disc has the correct "Ali G" label on it, but when you put it in the DVD player, you get an hour-long cartoon called "Boz the Green Bear." Extremely un-funny. It's been more than 30 days since it was ordered, so TvBoxset will not replace it.
