I feel the same way. I tried so hard to like the US version but I could just barely get past the first episode and that was only because they featured my car going down a ski slope. All the hosts are just terrible, their banter seems forced, they’re not funny in the least and they have no rapport with one another. I would rather the History Channel just syndicate the UK version and spare us the pain of watching three mongs embarrass themselves.
