You also have to be into SBC comedy.
Pretty much every one of his characters is based upon putting regular people into ridiculous situations and seeing how they will react. The comedy comes from getting people (often famous) to take part in the ridiculous (often offensive) things he says or does.
Some situations are awkward and embarrassing, while some are flat out hilarious for exposing the stupidity and ignorance of the average person.
For example, this is one of the best ever Ali G skits where he wasn't malicious, just dumb. And god bless that vet and his patience.
And then there was Bruno. The movie sucked but the clips from the Ali G show were some of his best. The shallow idiotic crap these people in the fashion industry would say was unbelievable. I can't find any good clips online but it was amazing.
