discuss. i’m 16 minutes in, so far, well it would be good if we didn’t have top gear uk. good preview of how we’re going to see top gear u.s.a. if you ask me.

they tried to hard in some of it. heres the problem, no one will ever be top gear uk. it takes a long time to get a show that great, they weren’t great when it started but now they are. and everyone is trying to copy it. it will never work. having an aussie stig, no, an american stig, no. make your own show, don’t copy one that you will never live up to.

saying that, i will watch every episode of every top gear probably.

i watched it last night and elliot it looks the same cause clarkson is the producer of the show, he’s in charge of the content of the show and also the flimming, which is why it looks so much like uk… i figured it out tho mid way thru the show, you can’t watch the show and try and make one of them clarkson, one of them may, and one of them hamond. once you stop trying to do that you’ll find the show, much better

oh and yes that dude needs to get rid of the fucking facial hair

i didn’t try to make them the guys from uk, but there is no way not to compare them when it is just a replica of top gear, decent show, but doing there own thing would be so much better then just copying someone elses show.
