^I think Sacha Baron Cohen has genius level talent in terms of performance and writing. It's just that his irreverence make people take him less seriously. Don't forget, he played Monsieur Thenardier in the Les Mis movie and played it excellently well. Very on point.
That sequence where he was living in the home of the rednecks in Borat 2 is both some of the bravest and most incredible acting I've seen. He stayed 100% in character except for the brief moments before he went to sleep. He was living with them for 5 days and they were none the wiser. That is incredible, full stop.
I only watched the first few episodes of that series and stopped, but is it worth finishing? I assume yes, but just thought I would ask.
