==Ali G== In each episode of ''[[Da Ali G Show]]'', Borat is shown doing satirical interviews with often unwitting subjects in the United Kingdom and the United States. The segments were shot in a low-quality video style to maintain the impression of low-quality television broadcasts in a poor country (similar to the [[Chanel 9]] segments on ''[[The Fast Show]]''). In ''[[Ali G Indahouse]]'', the British [[Prime Minister]] and Ali G greet Borat who proceeds to hug and then kiss Ali G, who pushes him away in disgust. The Borat segments on ''Da Ali G Show'' use a rock rendition of a Russian folk tune, "[[Korobeiniki]]", as the theme song. ===Guide to Britain=== This was created as part of a six-part series of ''Da Ali G Show'' that was originally broadcast on Channel 4 (UK) starting in March 2000. Five Borat sketches were shown, in the form of "Guides" to "Etiquette", Hunting, [[Cambridge]], Edinburgh, and [[Henley Royal Regatta|Henley]]. The "Guides" to "English Gentlemen", "Politics" and "Sport" were also filmed at this time but released at a later date as part of ''Ali G'' DVDs. The Cambridge sketch is the only major Borat material from this series not to have made it onto the compilation DVDs. ===Guide to USA 1=== Shown as part of a six-part ''Ali G Show'' originally on HBO (US) in February 2003. This series was screened and released in the UK as ''Ali G in the USA''. Six Borat sketches were shown in the form of "Guides" to "Dating", "Etiquette", "Acting", "Men", "Baseballs" and "The (Deep) South". A "Guide to Animals" was filmed but released at a later date as part of an ''Ali G'' DVD. ===Guide to USA 2=== Shown as part of a six-part ''Ali G Show'' originally on HBO (US) in July 2004. (Channel 4 was the UK channel where Ali G and Borat originally appeared, and the series for America was a joint HBO/Channel 4 co-production). This series was re-edited for the UK to remove all the Ali G material, becoming two prime-time ''[[Borat's Television Programme]]'' specials for Channel 4. These specials also embodied the Brüno segments from the series and Borat's "Guide To Hunting", not screened in the US version. The uncut second series as it appeared on HBO was later given a UK courtesy transmission on digital channel E4. Six Borat sketches were shown in the form of "Guides" to "Wine Tasting", "Politics", "Country Music", "Hobbies", "Buying a House" and "Jobs" (careers), with "Hunting" airing in the UK only.
