Debunking Borat

First episode were funny deleted scenes taken from the Borat movie. The next episodes are totally different,they are much shorter and became more serious, they talk about politics and they try to debunk fake conspiracy theories with those two men who became friends with Borat during the quarentene. Borat only appears in the first episode. Very Nice!

But if you buy into the hooey that is American politics and don't realize that it's all professional wrestling, you'll probably not like this.

There's nothing funnier to me than seeing a couple of guys who aspire to be cast members of Duck Dynasty (who, again, are actors playing a role), explain how certain people drink the adrenal gland fluid of children as well as the blood of children.

It's a very entertaining show that enlightens us to the idiocy of the dumb sector of America. Enjoy it.

So if you like Borat then you'll like this series. It's just pure satire. A lot of Americans can't understand satire and the US in general make politics their life. So when you remove the satire you're left with Borat just making politics and conspiracies look silly. Almost all the reviews that are 1 star are anger because of this. They make it evident in what they say. Political agendas and all this when it's just a satirical comedy.

So just ignore them and try it.

This show consists of the first 40 minute episode, with nothing really new from when Borat 2 stayed with the two dudes, then six more 7 minute episodes of what seems to be a teenage boy narrating over why the two guys silly conspiracies were wrong. I mean ZERO laughs and it's just weird as heck. Skip it, trust me.

"Borat's American Lockdown & Debunking Borat" (2021 release; 7 episodes totaling 83 min.) is a follow-up of sorts to last year's "Borat Subsequent Moviefilm", and intends to address the many conspiracy theories that have built up the last couple of years, and which are brought forward in the movie.

"American Lockdown" (37 min.) revisits the movie's segments involving the conspiracy theorists Jim and Jerry, and adds some footage that was left out of the movie for one reason or another. The best scenes involve Borat being introduced to Amazon's Alexa, and Borat imagining that Alexa actually is alive and living in the device. There is also more detailed footage of the QAnon rally that Borat ends up addressing. We then go "Debunking Borat" (6 episodes of 7-8 min. Each), in which Jim and Jerry meet (virtually) with various experts who will debunk these crazy conspiracy theories going around about Bill Gates, George Soros, the Clintons, the "Chinese Virus", etc. It all leads up to the very last episode in which none other than Hillary Clinton herself addresses Jim and Jerry (in a taped video message).

Bottom line: I really wonder who all this is intended for. If you've seen "Borat Subsequent Moviefilm", it is because you almost certainly abhor these crazy conspiracy theories and the people that stupidly fall for them, so there is no reason to watch this. If you haven't watch "Borat Subsequent Moviefilm" but are curious, by all means watch the film before you spend any time on "American Lockdown & Debunking Borat". And if you are convinced that these conspiracy theories are "in fact" correct, I feel sorry for you (actually I don't).
