Thanks!
I used to hate the host, but the I can't get enough of it now. I, uh, saw the American version of Top Gear. Just...not the same... Aria |

I watched the first episode last night and recorded the rest.
One thing I agree with Clarkson on, I would take a F-40 over an Enzo any day. But then if I could actually afford ether of them I probably wouldn't care. |

Top Gear is kind of like Howard Stern...you either love it or hate it. I think it rocks. I do not understand why the US is incapable of creating a car show that isnt a 30 minute (or 60 minute) advertisement.

I first watched Fifth Gear, which is great. But then I got hooked on Top Gear, which is even better. It's amazing how good the British are at making car shows that are really enjoyable to watch. It's got to be a combination of the great cars they do along with the campy British humor.

I do not understand why the US is incapable of creating a car show that isnt a 30 minute (or 60 minute) advertisement. Bingo! So much brown nosing, so watered down...so scripted...It's literally like the old LS1. Afraid to say anything bad about a product 'cos you don't want to offend your adverstisers. Recently, a show I worked on got a chunk of the show edited out (days before it's aired, c@ck suckers). Reason? The show's lawyers afraid to be sued because a display of some products being used to help sick children in a hospital. It's a hard work to put on a good, entertaining show... Aria |
