I love Sacha Baron Cohen's "Da Ali G Show" on HBO and I know there are some fans on this board so I was hoping those fans could list their favorite lines from of Sacha's three characters he portrays on television. Let's get started. I like the one where he is interviewing and ATF agent and the agent tells him what ATF stands for and then he replies something like "And what else do you sell here?" I know there are a ton others so post 'em!
"Throw the Jew down the well!" - Borat, singing in a redneck bar "Is it cuz I is black?" - Ali G to Andy Rooney after he calls off an interview
In my country there is problem, and that problem is the Jew! "how do you defend against the Jew claw?" "so what about those ppl that says the moon doesn't exist?" "we play husband and wife!"
In Ali G's first year on tv in the UK he was at a drug lab where the guy was telling Ali how bad all the drugs are and started running through the side effects of ecstacy. After running through the whole list Ali comes in with "Are there any bad side effects"
In an otherwise unremarkable bit, this Borat line is subtle perfection: Bonus: this MTV Euro gig is apparently what made the Kazakh government label Cohen an agent provocateur.
Borat: "In Kazakhstan, after Communism, we have a lot of porno! I like, I like, I like a shave pu$$y!" "Is, ah, Freddie Mercury, eh, a homosexual?"
there was a ali g special he did in the UK. it was when everyone knew who he was and he could no longer just came up to people and they had no idea what they were in for. anyway, he was interviewing jarvis cocker of the pulp. a UK indie band jarvis walks up to ali g ali looks at jarvis like he doesnt know who he is ali: we're here to interview a big star. the cleaners come after the show. now please, fock off jarvis: its me ali: come off it. you look like a kiddie fiddler! and the posh spice, david beckham was good too. ali: in an ideal world, and no disrespect to your b****, wouldn't you rather be with baby?
Ali's Opponent: I put it to you that you are the worst candidate Stains has ever seen. Ali G: Well, I put it to you... that you sucked off a horse. Ali's Opponent: Yes, well, I did not suck off a horse. I've already explained to the Labor Minister that I was walking through a meadox and happened to slip onto a horse that happened to be aroused.
The Borat episode when he's learning dinner etiquette was classic. He first downed the entire glass of wine. Then later he took a dump, and came back to the table and said, "I had a good sh*t."
Oh yes, there was that one episode where he was performing as Bruno and said: "Welcome to the gayest place in the world.....Alabama!" LOL!
