Da Ali G Show
This outrageous comedy/reality series stars British chameleon Sacha Baron Cohen, who travels across America in the guise of one of three totally different characters. Cohen's primary alter-ego is Ali G., who calls himself a "hip-hop journalist", but who's really a white rapper-wannabe. When Cohen isn't putting Ali G and his "guests" in unusual and often delightfully uncomfortable situations, he's shedding his yellow gangsta track suit attire and slipping into two other memorable characters: Borat, an impossibly naive TV reporter from Kazakhstan, and Bruno, a gay Austrian fashionista.
Ali G talks with Sam Donaldson. Borat over-imbibes with a pair of genial gents at a wine tasting in Mississippi. Ali G probes 'The Simpsons'' legal travails with former LAPD police chief Daryl Gates.
Ali G has a serious sit-down with conservative icon Patrick Buchanan; Borat hits the campaign trail in Oklahoma with a congressional candidate, then delivers a speech to the City Council after getting tips from the state's Republican Party chairman.
Ali G pitches a few would-be bestsellers to some high-profile publishers and agents. Bruno chats with fashion guru Leon Hall; later, he and 'fashion police' James Campbell and Randy McLaughlin rate the attire of some Hollywood notables.
Ali G ponders security issues with former Commissioner of Immigration and Naturalization James Ziglar. On the road, Borat winds up wrestling with a self-defense expert, making music with a yoga teacher, and sniffing up a new-age dance class.
Ali G muses about Moses and the U.S. Constitution with Gore Vidal. Borat goes house-shopping with a realtor, taking time to ask essential buyer's questions. Ali G explores safe-sex issues via a genitalia model with sex educator Sally Epstein.
Ali G gets relationship advice from 'Men Are from Mars, Women Are from Venus' author John Gray and goes to a pro-choice march. Meanwhile, Borat goes job-hunting and Ali G talks money with former presidential economics advisor Charles Schultze.
