I don't normally post stuff recommending TV shows, but I'm going to make an exception for this show.



"Ali G" is a character created by British comedian Sacha Baron Cohen. While his show is very popular back in the UK, his only exposure over here has been one series of 6 episodes on HBO. I caught some of the first series and became an instant fan, since then I've picked up some British import DVDs and am now an even bigger fan.

Why am I telling you all this???

Because he has a new series starting on HBO this Sunday, plus they are re-running all 6 episodes from the first series on Friday evening.

OK, now onto the details... the "Ali G" character is a complete idiot. He's some sort of hip-hop gangsta wannabe, even though he's a white guy from a nice British suburb. Somehow or other he manages to get serious people to agree to be interviewed by him and the results are outrageous!!!

For example, here's a clip from a recent interview with Pat Buchannon...

Ali: "Could Saddam make Weapons of Mass Destruction, or BLTs as they're known?"
Pat: "Could he make them?"
Ali: "Yeah, could Saddam make BLTs?"
Pat: "Yes we know he could, because he used BLTs on the Kurds"

If you hit Google, you'll find tons of fan sites and other sources of info on him.

Here's the official HBO site:
