i can't answer for everyone, but most people knew of ALI G for a couple years now, but i think his sense of humor just didn't really do it for most Americans. i know a person who loves ALI G, but most really don't have any opinion of him. i personally didn't find him very funny because he just didn't seem very clever and political mocking of officials and people isn't anything new and he really hasn't pushed it and made it "clever" or ingenius, i find his comedy a bit too obvious and forced. i don't think he's a bad comedian, but i don't find him to be very clever, smart, innovative.
humor across different cultures are all a little different and that's because of our society's differences.
