He is best known for a series of successful and controversial roles in his British Channel 4 TV series Ali G: The Show, including Ali G, Borat and Bruno, who have also been adapted for the big screen. Baron Cohen won many awards for his performance as Borat in "Borat", including the Golden Globe Award for Best Actor in a Motion Picture Musical or Comedy, and was nominated for the Academy Award for Best Adapted Screenplay.
