In a sketch for his series Who Is America?,

Baron Cohen pretends to be an Israeli anti-terrorism expert demonstrating a "paedophile detector".

When the "device" is waved near Mr Moore, it beeps. :lol

In last year's Senate campaign, Mr Moore was dogged by allegations of sexual misconduct (https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-us-canada-42333712), which he denies.

His lawyers say the satirist falsely accused their client of being a sex offender.

They are seeking $95m (£73m) in damages from Baron Cohen and from the Showtime and CBS networks.

Ali G basically prank called famous people and politicians; "Who is America" is a fake interview show on TV.

SBC's brazenness and knack for impersonation stand out to me. He's been pulling versions of this con for awhile.

Actually he only pranked one spectrum of American politics and packaged it as "this is America"

Where was the black face skit while interviewing BlackLivesMatter? That should have been episode #1

Where were the antifa, the open borders and the 37 genders freaks?

Did he try interviewing Maxine Waters, Tom Perez or Shaun King?

Sasha went soft. Lost respect for a comedian I felt have the capability to really expose America.

Goodness, whining that a comedian hasn't tried to dupe political figures from your enemies list.

It is a Hollywood show, it was expected. Reading the shows reddit page, seems leftists are the only ones that took the show seriously as some sort of barometer of America

Best SBC moment was when he sang "Throw the Jew down the Well" in a cowboy bar in AZ as Borat.

I liked when he brought his poop to the table while taking lessons on how to be a proper Southerner.

Also he tried to pay a rat with cash because he thought it was a transformed Jew housing him. He held a cross, gun and cash close to him.

Cringe humor just doesn’t do it for me anymore. I want to like the show, but I tend to enjoy recaps of what he did more than actually watching it.

The shit he did/does was/is gold. If not for Ferrell being alive in the same period, SBC would be the comedic genius of the times.

Scroll up, individuals such as Boutans truly believe one political spectrum is smarter/dumber than the other

This show claimed to represent America then zeroed in one single demographic.

Its very coarse. But the interviews he got in the early days were hilarious.

His Ali G character did get some sympathy when he first started an interview because played so clueless but willing. As the questions got more frustrating for the interviewee it turned golden as they realized the baiting. I need to find that interview with the catholic Cardinal where Ali G attempts to understand how Santa Claus and his reindeer fit in with the birth of Christ.
