Anyone watched it yet? He just did a segment with Joe Arpaio, and it was beyond fascinating.

My thought is it's hard to believe believe are that stupid. Especially people who are successful/ allegedly intelligent.
Sunday’s episode was a little step back. The first three were absolute fire though.
The Mosque town hall meeting in AZ had me dying.

You forgot about the Ali G Show. People were stupid back then until they caught on to the rouse after a couple seasons.
Loved Ali G, but this is a new era in time, and his schtick is getting even better.
That's the best part.
The shtick was annoying and not funny then and is annoying and not funny now.
The Ali G or this? Because this is hilarious watching these Republicans make themselves look like the absolute morons they truly are.
I tried to watch the first episode but couldn't get through the redneck character he was playing while interviewing Sanders. I saw clips of the mosque town hall and thought that was hilarious. but one quick question, do you think all Republicans are morons? asking for a friend.
I don't see it, this is some young dikey Aussie standup, whereas Sacha has been taking on faux roles for quite some time, garnering high profile people to buy into his script, then flip it around on them and make them look foolish.
I never said that, but you sure seem curious.Tell your friend to ask a more thought out question. The Republicans he's duped in these interviews sure seem moronic, wouldn't you say?
I think South Park does a better job making fun of both parties. Mostly because it's actually funny.
this is why i asked for clarification before it turned into "all Republicans are morons" by some others on this board.
You seem rustled. Would you prefer i said ***git? I get the PC angle you're trying to throw my way, it's kinda weird.
South Park is a cartoon. These are real life people pulling down their pants and shouting the N word, and Joe Arpaio who Trump pardoned, saying he'd gladly receive a blow job from DJT. See the difference?
it's sarcasm man, when the **** have i ever been rustled on this board?
This sums it up for me:
"In other words, 12 years on from Borat, we are so past the point at which we could believe in a single, stable version of reality that Baron Cohen’s methods don’t feel invigorating, or as though they’re advancing the conversation around politics or comedy."

Maybe I'm dull. I love comedy like Bill Burr, Mitch Hedberg, and Louis C.K. I don't like comedy like Jeff Dunham or Gallagher. Sacha Cohen comes off as the latter (trying too hard) to me.

I'm looking forward to the Sarah Palin episode.
LOL Sarah Palin and Roy Moore were "tricked". Wonder why?
I think they were the "stupid" Republicans referred to above. You have to be honest, they are pretty stupid. But, it sounds like Palin's might not even make it on the air.
Guy is a genius at social engineering. Would be a hell of a hacker. It’s amazing what people will agree to just to avoid conflict... or when they drop their guard when they deduce the guy is too crazy to present any threat.
You know, I got corrected on the snowflake thing once… It isn’t about melting under pressure easily, it’s about thinking you are unique and special. It’s a fight club reference 
Jesus Christ some of you are sensitive, re read what I posted, it was meant to say that you would’ve possibly asked me that question “are you implying all republicans are morons”, I was being facetious.
You always came across as the Ali G of Meechegan to me.
People were talking about how he couldn't get any decent work couple years ago. Now everybody loves him again.
