Hoping and praying it will be good, but its gonna be insanley hard to pull off what the original is.

 

Can't wait!

 

I watch top gear alll the time. Usually onna channel on justin.tv Guna be very hard for us version to live up to this amaerican hating man.

 

I thought it was just History Channel hosting Top Gear on their channel that's all.

 

I wonder why they never let the stig take ^THAT^ car round the track...

 

Nope, cause they have different hosts. One of hosts for ours is Tanner Foust. I love watching Foust drift some the top supercars in the world on Battle of the Supercars.

 

all we can do is tune in tonight with our fingers crossed, i have high hopes for it but i doubt it will even come close to the original just because it will be designed for the american viewer

 

even if its not as good, it will still be worthwhile to watch. i love watching people fuck stuff up

 

its a winner in my books fellas, they kept alot more then i expected plus i think all the host work great together, i know i will keep watching it

 

i missed it hopefully it comes on later

 

In between watching Sportscenter, I saw a bit of Tanner Foust driving a Viper and trying to sound like Jeremy Clarkson, which didn't really work for me. I guess if there's nothing else on I would watch it.

 

just watched it tonight. i think it sucks

 

I just watched it as well. It seems as though they're catering to people who have NEVER seen Top Gear BBC. I think the hosts need more time to loosen up and be able to play off each other and have quick witty exchanges like the BBC guys do. Clarkson, Hammond , and May seem like they're friends outside of the show, and bring that kind of friendly smartassness on screen. It feels more relaxed, more comfortable.

I was completely disappointed by the lack of "Some say..." intro for the Stig........

 

well what really annoyed me is that the other two guys cant drive. like the whole time they where doing the drifting competition they were just bickering about how they sucked.

come on if your going to do a car show like this, get some hosts that know how to maneuver a car.

 

I'm watching an episode right now, they took 3 old trucks (a Chevy, Ford and Dodge) through trails in Alaska. And guess what is following them to lend a helping hand in case they need it.........thats right, A TOYOTA!!! A 92-95 4wd ext cab with alot of aftermarket goodies!

 

That Toyota was frigging killer! (it's funny how the import did basically the same challenge, and held up way better that the rest, lol)

The best part was that the Toyota had no issues through any of it, the camera just showed it taunting the other trucks. To me that just said "I'm better that all you guys, and I know it", lol. Can you image the producers sitting around talking about doing it, and saying "well, we need a truck that will make it no matter what on the show, so we better include an import, but we'll play it off like it's a bad thing".
