    I never thought I'd ever say this but PRAISE THE LORD! I absolutely detest Sasha Baron Cohen, he is one of the most annoying people on TV. Good riddance!

    Borat was kind of annoying, but ok. Sorry to see Ali G go, may he rest in peace. Reminds me of a lot of people I know.

    Bet you're not a big fan of Andy Kaufman either.

    sorry to see ali g go. that part in the opening credits where he rolls a joint one handed always cracked me up. plus the looks on the faces of some of the people he interviewed (particularly gore vidal) are absolutely priceless.

    borat was annoying as all frak and i won't miss him.

    Sasha is pretty much a ****ty comedian. Never laughed at da ali g show or any of his humour...he just isn't a funny man.

    opinions etc.

    They are similar comedians. They both really work to get reactions out of people, to show the real person behind the masks. Sure they are funny, but laughter was really a byproduct of what what intended. I personally love Sasha Cohen, He's a genius in my book.

    I think I maybe saw one episode of Da Ali G show. Then I saw a movie called Ali G In Da House(I think) and then Borat. They were all pretty funny, if you ask me. He was also pretty good in Talladega Nights. I'm waiting to see how he does with a role like Signor in Sweeney Todd. Anyone seen it yet?

    Even after seeing the Borat movie several times, if I see a bit of it on TV I still laugh my ass off...

    Agreed. I can take it if people say he isn't funny, because that boils down to taste. But anyone who says he isn't talented, just has no idea of what they're talking about. Sacha Baron Cohen has a better grasp of humor and comedy than any of us can ever dream of having.
