He was hired and worked on several ‘youth TV’ projects before appearing in The 11 O’Clock Show (1998) in 1998, which became a cult hit thanks to his character, Ali G. Ali G was so popular that a spin-off show, Da Ali G Show (2000), and a film, Ali G Indahouse (2002) were created.
America was soon beckoned by a domestic version of Da Ali G Show. Following that, Baron Cohen voiced Julien in Madagascar (2005) and played Jean Girard alongside Will Ferrell in Talladega Nights: The Ballad of Ricky Bobby (2006). He followed this with the smash hit Borat: Cultural Learnings of America for the Glory of Kazakhstan (2006), for which he won a Golden Globe and was nominated for an Oscar for writing.

His characters frequently parody “gotcha journalism” by baiting the interviewee into saying something controversial. On Da Ali G Show, he portrays three main characters (2000). Ali G is the title character, a lower-class white male who dresses like a Jamaican Londoner and irritates his politically active and powerful guests by asking stupid questions. Borat, a Kazakhstani TV reporter, is another example. He naively searches for porn and outlets for his scatological, accidental humor, and anti-Semitism. The last is the superficial Austrian fashion expert Brüno, who frequently glorifies heartless fashionistas while making macho men uncomfortable with his open homosexuality.
