Not as good as the Ali G in USA show , but I found it quite decent and there were quite a few funny parts in the first episode. Feel kind of bad for that art gallery lady, though, since she seemed like such a nice lady.

I found the first segment with Bernie Sanders was pretty funny. And the last part about Gun Nuts was pretty good. The stuff in the middle was so so.

It's amazing. I never enjoy SBC when he's being crass, but when he's exposing people and culture he's at his best and its mesmerising, as well as extremely uncomfortable. The last episode was mind boggling. I don't know how he acquires the access he does, and how he keeps a straight face.

I just binged all 6 episodes & wrapping up the 6th one...this guy man! AMAZING! Very ballsy! I'd say its on par with the Ali G show..his previous characters were so likeable..so these new ones are an adjustment, but you can see WHY he had to make up all new characters..still, he pulls it off amazingly. My favorites are Colonel Erran Morad & Billy Wayne Ruddick Jr...really shows the caliber of actor he really is! LOVE it!
I do miss Bruno, Borat & especially Ali G!

The food critic guy was pretty funny. It kind of seems like he is having serious second thoughts before he eats the prophylactic and the "chinese dissident", though, and I'm not sure if they somehow encouraged and egged him on and edited it out, though. All the same I love how he gives glowing reviews to the chinese dissident and sends his regards to his family.
In the last few episodes it kind of seems like he hasn't really gotten the politicians to "bite" and they didn't really say or do anything I'd consider all that controversial or special. I think he probably should've focused more on the celebrities and pseudocelebrities like Corinne Olimpios and the food critic. He probably would've gotten better material for the most part that way.
