Yeah I posted this earlier.

I just watched the first 8 minutes of the US one. Not bad. I’m going to continue watching.

EDIT: The 60% hill climb and the bowling ball to the Fiero window was pretty funny. And the skid pad with the coke. lol. The Roadmaster + Water was pretty hilarious as well.

I think this show is actually half decent.

Thanks for the info…I’m fully aware that Tony Hawk doesn’t have a silver SRT8 Jeep. He has a black one with a BlackOps carbon fiber Venom hood, but I guess the sarcasm wasn’t picked up on.

Awesome episode IMO. God, I love Top Gear UK.

I can honestly say I havent watched it since the first episode. Until I hear they replaced Tanner Foust it will stay that way.

I actually don’t mind the cast. I’ve watched 1, 2, and 5 and I’ve liked all of them. 3 and 4 are tomorrow and then I’ll be caught up.

I think they are doing just fine with the blind guy, the water in the cars, etc. I’m liking it.

Now I have two Top Gears too watch. Even better.

This episode wasnt to bad.

They really need to break out of their shell though… I know itll take some time but they still seem to act like robots. Maybe its just the lack of conviction in their voices.

Morgan was nasty… I want one.

THE STIG ENTRANCE NEEDS WORK! Everytime they introduce him, I feel like I was cock teased by Michelle Rodriguez… then opera came in and my shit went soft

I was mad at that too but I have a feeling that they don’t build up stig or make him a meme like a British one for a reason.

Americans don’t like secrets and with pop journalism being a huge industry here the Stig wouldn’t last long as a secret ruining the meme in a season or two without the buildup that British one has.

Plus doesn’t help that the stig is the same height as Tanner and likes a bit of oversteer…

With the show in the baby stage without knowing how long it will last it makes sense not to spend extra budget on another crew member, plus if it is Tanner (who is the only driver on the show) it only makes more sense to downplay the persona of the Stig.

Although in the moonshine episode stig was right by their side, but thats the beauty of the mistery man, he can be anyone at anytime.

Some say…

I agree. I was thinking Tanner was the stig last night.
