What I don't understand is why Brits have gotten the humor. True, with exception of the outward appearance, most of his humor is standard tongue in cheek brit humor but the people he's taking the piss out of by acting and dressing that way are mostly here in America. There are so few of them there I don't see how you can truly relate to the joke that is Ali G. I wouldn't have expected him to be the mega success he is over there.
I think he would be infinitely more funny to Americans... at least the Americans that aren't too PC and and enjoys sarcastic wit. Some people here will actually want to KILL him when they see him.
