Maybe you all have already seen this... be careful around co-workers, I suppose; although I would love to see a couple co-workers' reactions to it. |

North Korea sounds and looks a bit like Posh Spice. |

Yeah, I was about to say, I don't think that NK is actually Korean...or Asian for that matter. XD

Its British humour.
I'm guessing the people calling it "lame" are probably americans or canadians.. |

Nautilus, I don't think it's the British aspect that turns people off... I'm North American and don't get a lot of British humor, either.
It's completely trivializing a very complex, sensitive (for some, I suppose) issue in a very satirical (and racy) way, that could be offensive to some. The best humor, by definition I believe, has to be found offensive by at least some people. I would imagine everything Sasha Cohen does has been found offensive or lame by at LEAST 50% of those that watch it. |

| I like Ali-g, Borat and Bruno, but this just wasn't that funny. It was really simplistic and stupid. |
