Top Gear Last Night

[DiabloTX]

Top Gear is probably the best all-around produced series on TV IMHO.  Their jabs at all things Americana I think are spot-on and hilarious.  Even the "Zed-are one" put a smile on ole Jeremy's face!

But then common joes couldn't relate to it, and there wouldn't be a model from the latest batch of retro muscle.

Right..... $100k zr1 common joes..... I can see why they wanted the retro muscle. It was the only muscle car of the bunch...wasn't it supposed to be a show about just that? 
I just want to see Clarkson review the ACR. Probably say it's about as subtle as a sledgehammer to the temple ... or something. I just know it would make for some great entertainment.

Bronk, "Let it go", lol, sound familiar? 

[Bruv119]

ah i havent watched it yet. just got around to watching first episode this series.

It's difficult being a lorry driver, change gear check mirror change gear change gear murder prostitute change gear check mirror...  epic.

The families of those murdered complained to the BBC in the hope of another russell brand type resignation.   No chance Jeremy is a legend.

Clarkson owned a Ford GT for a while, but i think he got rid of it because it was too impractical on our roads, and Hammond has a Mustang - so i don't think they are that anti Americar

He got rid cause it was forever breaking down, and clarkson is a legend

[whiteman]

sounds no different than GT's i've seen here, pretty crappy built cars. DiabloTX pointed out some welds on that car that a 5 year could have done better.

Yeah if it were up to me there'd have been more than just that one challenger.. But then the show would be less exciting and wouldn't appeal to as wide an audience.. It's a tough job pleasing everyone

...Saying we are all fat, stupid, and such is not even close to the facts...

Yes it is - and none of you understand sarcasm. And all Brits are evil despots trying to hatch fiendish plans to take over the world. And they all have bad teeth.

Don't get me wrong ..I thought it was great entertainment.

Man.. the way he drifted the vette around those hairpins.. Did it get his rocks off or what?

[superpug1]

Man,  wish we got top gear live here in the states, I stuck with buying the dvds...

[stroker71]

I watch it on BBC here on cable.  Lots of good programs come from the other side of the pond!

[DiabloTX]

Yup.  BBC 1600 CST.
