eth3l Posted June 9, 2003 Share Posted June 9, 2003 I am checking out "Da Ali G Show" on HBO for the first time, and I cannot stop laughing. This show is unreal! and hilarious! Who is this guy and what is his deal? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rezza Veteran Posted June 9, 2003 Veteran Share Posted June 9, 2003 Ali G first appeared on a program called "The 11 O'clock Show" on channel 4 on weeknights at 11 o'clock (surprise surprise) over here in the uk. that was about 4/5 years ago now. he proved to be immensely popular, and became so well-known that nobody was naive enough to do interviews with him anymore. which is why he now does stuff over in the US, where he's still not so well-known, so people are stupid enough to do interviews with him.

+E.Worm Jimmy Subscriber¹ Posted June 9, 2003 Subscriber¹ Share Posted June 9, 2003 funny british comedian. been running in uk as 11 oclock show and da ali g show for quite a while. 3 good dvds (the best of all his previous shows) were released - Innit, Aiii, Bling Bling. also he made a movie - in da house - very funnym though more childish the his interviews. i definitly recommend getting Aiii, then Innit, then the movie (in da house), and then bling bling. anyway if you can buy the dvds or vhs. if not, i am sure you are familiar with peer-to-peer. also check your pm. booyaka sha!

eth3l Posted June 9, 2003 Author Share Posted June 9, 2003 You can bet your arse I am going to search out his DVDs. I have no problem giving this guy money for his product. I cannot believe how funny he was. In the episode I just saw he had Buzz Aldrin explaining to hom what comedy was; "When the absurd meets reality." Thats pretty much his show. Best TV shows *ever* came out of the Beeb: Black Adder Faulty Towers OLD Ab Fab Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jason the Eighty Eighth Posted June 9, 2003 Share Posted June 9, 2003 it cracks me up when he tries to breakdance and when he screws up someone singing a classical song by adding rap & swearing and female dancers. :laugh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eth3l Posted June 9, 2003 Author Share Posted June 9, 2003 nice post! clever. In fact your post illustrates what is so good about British humor : wit and sarcasm. this is exactly what Ali G is, witty and sarcastic. Last night was an episode where he was rapping with James Lipton. I was floored. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Redmondian Posted June 10, 2003 Share Posted June 10, 2003 ugh, i can't stand him... he irritates me in the worst way Same here, he is the single most annoying "commedian" ever. Worst thing is, does he think he's funny or cool? He is neither. I think that anyway. :sleep: :blink: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
