Sacha Baron Cohen’s new television show earned disappointing numbers in its debut, despite the controversy the comedian generated leading up to the airing of the first episode.

Prior to the debut of “Who is America” on Sunday night, it emerged that Cohen had employed a number of disguises and fake cover stories in order to conduct interviews with public officials, including posing as a disabled veteran to get an interview with former vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin.

He's getting pretty repetitive at this stage, needs to rethink, back to the drawing board

I think the problem is...when you automatically disenfranchise half of your potential audience, then you start out screwed from the beginning.

Which sucks. I think he is funny as hell. Loved his Ali G show years ago.

But when you start out a show whose premise is that you are going to try to attack half the people in the country with scorn and contempt...that's just bad business.

Sasha is a butt head and the only person I can think of who is a bigger butt head is Trump

I thought he was great as Ali G and his part in "Talladega Nights: The Ballad Of Ricky Bobby" was awesome!

If he was targeting Democrats this thread would be linking to Breitbart saying what a hit the show is.

he lampooned Bernie Sanders in the show, you don't see Sanders whining about it like the conservatives are.

that said, the show was not funny.

Sacha Baron Cohen’s ‘Who Is America?’ Enjoys Solid Debut Ratings

The series premiere of Sacha Baron Cohen’s “This Is America” got off to a respectable start in the ratings on Sunday.

The show’s debut on Showtime’s linear channel drew a modest 0.1 rating in adults 18-49 and 327,000 viewers, airing at 10 p.m. However, streaming and On Demand viewing added another 301,000 viewers to that total, bringing the show to 628,000. Showtime also aired multiple encores of the premiere, which bring its viewership haul to just over 1 million for the night. The show will also likely see significant lift in delayed viewing.

A 10-minute preview of the series posted on Showtime’s YouTube channel on Sunday has also garnered over 10 million views.

According to Showtime, “Who Is America?” also drove the highest sign-ups of any series for the Showtime streaming service in a single day in 2018, and it was the third best day for series’ premiere day sign ups since the service launched.

I still haven't seen this movie but I will check it out.

I thought he would have made a really good Freddy Mercury in the new Queen flick, but the deal fell apart somehow.

I liked him in Hugo. A really good movie too.

Nailed it! If you watch and feel he is taking the piss out of someone 'in power' its funny. If you feel he's taking the piss out of you (Or your values / beliefs) then it is completely different.

Ali G / Borat took the piss in a harmless way - This show doesn't do it in the same way...

oppoten · 07-21-2018, 02:08 AM

The white goy was always the butt of the joke. Even if you laughed along with him, he was laughing at you.

He's not more Jewish now than he used to be.

Colbert and other late night comedians are killing it with trump jokes.
