Didn't get a chance to see it due to lack of a television set I'm glad SOAD didn't get robbed of what's rightfully theirs I can't really say for myself as I have yet to see the re-runs - if I see them at all that is - but I heard the show wasn't that good.

Unfortunately, I think it's more Confirm than Deny :s

I have to say I was expecting a bit more.
Even Borat - who I thought would kick *** - wasn't THAT great...

But the Gorillaz performance was just....AWESOME !

[DrZapp]

Wicked Gorillaz are the best group and Shakira is the best female

Well, the actor Sasha Baron Cohen plays both Ali G and Borat lol.
So this time, Borat was the one to host .
