- CBTF, on 10/12/2007, -5/+66Just because you don't think he's funny doesn't mean that other people aren't allowed to laugh at his humor.
Posting to say you buried something, though- that's lame. - thegsa, on 10/12/2007, -3/+53In the same way Andy Kaufman Wasn't Funny to Southerners
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+38no, pure genius would be if you realized that this video is 6 years old as well, so it was timely when released...
- WermerSkoch, on 10/12/2007, -0/+34I think that might have been a live audience, judging from all the people sitting in the background laughing... just maybe. ;)

- amonthei, on 10/12/2007, -6/+24What are you talking about, you couldn't even see it.
- nofxjunkee, on 10/12/2007, -1/+14@JCGV:
you mean "r-e-s-t-e-c-p, do you even know what that spells?" ... "re-stekpa?" ... "yes, restekpa. how can you expect others out there to restekpa each ova, when you lot in 'ere can't start restekpaing yourselves. ..." - wtsexton00, on 10/12/2007, -2/+14Andy Kaufman and Sasha Baron are extremely funny to me and I'm southern.
- bitcloud, on 10/12/2007, -1/+13are they both so funny you almost spit?
- superyounan1, on 10/12/2007, -1/+13I think the British Ali G / Borat material is funnier than the stuff he made over in the US because he tired to be more clever and Ironic - the American HBO show and the movie are funny too, but the focus shifted to being slapstickly outrageous and sexually deviant.
the "Best of Borat" video montage form his British Material is GOLD:

But I also love some of his HBO stuff, like "hunting the jew" and "politics" - JCGV, on 10/12/2007, -7/+17R E S P E T C
- GeneralBison, on 10/12/2007, -2/+8Actually the Americans use laugh tracks way more then us. Plus Da Ali G Show had a live audience.
- buckynekkid, on 10/12/2007, -0/+5Watching some clips on youtube has shown me that some ass has added a laughtrack to the HBO episodes. I own the 1st season and it is freakin' hilarious, but with the laughtrack it just wasn't that funny. I wonder if the same ass had his way with this clip, or if it was originally aired this way.
- targetX, on 10/12/2007, -1/+6I love Ali G / Borat! Bigg up yoself! :P
- HellSpam, on 10/12/2007, -1/+6Digg first one down, ending is bad... this is better:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=epUANGRu6ts - Raz75, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4I don't know why val8ntin is being dugg down, because there *is* a laugh track supplementing the actual audience laughter. It sounds a little like the canned laughter they used on M*A*S*H*.
I'm not saying the clip isn't funny; I'm just saying the video clip does have a laugh track on it. - emptycan, on 10/12/2007, -4/+7Very funny actually, i liked it a lot. Ali G is pretty cool.
- wphj, on 10/12/2007, -8/+11I don't get why people say "British Humor" is classier than American Humor. True, some american humor is just bathroom jokes, but the British isn't that much better. For instance, I find the American version of "The Office" to be much more subtle than the british version. The American version relies on hanging silences to get laughs, while the british version uses pink dildos.
- snowpatrol, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Phone your dealer!!! =D
- raid517, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2Lol what the hey., I'm a Brit and I found it funny. I guess I am just not up to the 'sophistication' of you Yanks.
- yatoobin, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1pure dope!
- phenolholic, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1that didnt look like an ounce. it looked more like a quarter oz.
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -5/+5Or do you get your AK and BLOW HIM AWAY!?!?
- zerocomm, on 10/12/2007, -6/+6This would be so much better if it weren't for the annoying laugh track.
- laplacian, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1I agree, this is worst ali g video i've ever seen. His unscripted stuff is so much better.
- yableo, on 10/12/2007, -2/+2looked like a 1/4 of an ounce to me...
if it was hash... maybe a half ounce.
but thats just semantics. fairly funny vid.
(oh and its also funnier if its kind of pathetic looking) - nofxjunkee, on 10/12/2007, -2/+1You should see the stuff he used in his 2nd movie, Ali G: Aiii! It looked like dead grass (ha ha, I mean real grass stoner). For all we know that could be meant to be an ounce of hash.
- dpierce, on 10/12/2007, -4/+3It's Respek.

- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -2/+0i can't wait for the day (and i'd bet anything that it'll happen) when someone who is the object of one of ali g/borat's pranks beats that stupid ***** to death with a baseball bat
- Lumiras, on 10/12/2007, -7/+4Ehh, not so funny. I am a bigger fan of his unscripted stuff. This is just like a bad SNL skit
- hiPpymIck, on 10/12/2007, -9/+5 or you
- bedouin, on 10/12/2007, -6/+1This was obviously inspired by Dr. Dre's $20 Sack Pyramid.
- knuvue, on 12/05/2007, -8/+2Sasha Baron is hilarious. But that was crap buddha and not an oz.
- raid517, on 10/12/2007, -14/+8"while the british version uses pink dildos."
Kind of like you I guess. - HellSpam, on 10/12/2007, -6/+0Metacafe is a bit slow, here's a youtube link:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fd4ANWMiaZg - kidhero, on 10/12/2007, -8/+1Clearly there is a great disconnect between what you and I consider to be genius.
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -14/+3i liked it
AK47 boyyyeee - val8ntin, on 10/12/2007, -21/+9Is anybody else annoyed by the laughing track in the background?
Ali G is much more enjoyable when the producers aren't telling you when to laugh. - thafooz, on 10/12/2007, -16/+4@WermerSkoch
I believe it's a British clip, before he was on HBO. For reasons unknown to me, UK TV tends to abuse the laugh track. - inactive, on 10/12/2007, -29/+1Someone PLEASE get this jackass off television.
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -47/+2Pure genius might be to spoof something that is a little more timely. Not something close to 7 years old. What is next, a hilarious parody of hte OJ freeway chase? And then a parody of Where's the Beef?
- Abatrour, on 10/12/2007, -63/+12Thats some pretty ***** looking weed :P
- Kinser, on 10/12/2007, -160/+5Sasha baron dumbass isn't funny.
Buried as lame.
