Why on Earth would this be a good idea? The purpose of characters like Bruno or Borat is to make fun of the uninformed, the bigoted and the stupid. We laugh at their reactions to the characters, as they have no idea it's a send-up. Having them on the show as the character completely defeats the purpose. You then just have 10 minutes of "Verr'Nice" or "Vassup!" and who wants to see that shit?
It's like watching Little Britain Live and having the characters come out and spit out a catchphrase, whilst everyone in the audience inanely claps away, before annoying the shit out of you in the office the next day.

Jackal - you're utterly wrong, there are plenty of social undertones behind his humor, is there the shock factor? Yes! And in words of metallica "so fucking what?"
One of his messages is that people shouldn't take life so damn seriously, loosen up a bit, yet not be ignorant goofballs either.
There is more to life then being bitter at the society, being insecure and compensating miserably for it by acting like a know-better-than-everyone-else-i-sit-behind-a-computer-all-day-long-and-read-slashdot.org
The only person that the above would be acceptable would be Stephen Colbert IMO.

I can agree with Sacha, but possibly not if he's going to be stuck in character.

How about no.
Actually, how about no fucking way in hell should he even be popular let alone be on TG.
None of his characters are even remotely funny. It's all shock comedy with him and shock comedy just isn't funny. All Cohen does is use every fucking retarded stereotype he can come up with to get laughs. That's not being funny, that's being a smug piece of shit.
no NO NO NO!
