Like it? I thought it was shyte. Everything seems forced on the programme. Their natural chemistry seems to have faded and has been replaced with scripted unfunny shyte. Some fat dude in a car without a helmet on replacing the stig.. trying to be funny, but also isn't funny?

Did anybody even understand the part when the three celebrities "died"? I was looking at my TV wondering wtf was going on.

Maybe it's just early doors and trying too hard for the first show. Will be interesting to see what kind of budget they get with Amazon though and if they still have their overseas adventures.

You pretty much summed up my thoughts.Not particularly funny (though I did have the odd chuckle ) too scripted and most of all not enough cars,and when they did it was all a bit arty,trick camera shots etc. Will probably still watch it though

 


In dog beers I’ve only had one.

you've just described what I thought the last few Clarkson/may/hammond series' Of Top Gear became.

Perhaps due to the abscence of the proper show and the infliction of the Evan's Reboot, you're expectations were too high and based on the earlier shows?

top gear was a big disappointment to me when I tuned in and discovered it was about cars and not the latest recomendations for the best narcotics
