bgcarlino I love this show soooo much. I back when it was all on Netflix I would watch all 20-something seasons like 2-3 times a year. James, Richard, and Jeremy are one of the greatest television host trios of all time. As much as they seems to hate each other on screen they're that loyal off the screen as we found out about Jeremy loosing his job with BBC. They are really funny and I love this show alot

deabuffalo This iteration of "Top Gear" is suffering from the same problem that the US version is not capturing. Chemistry. Jeremy, James and Hammond have incredible chemistry together. They are all completely different from each other, but equally funny, witty, entertaining and knowledgeable automobile loving professionals. And that is why they were #1 for so many years! You can have all the latest hyper-cars being shown using all of the latest camera angles and effects, but if the "presenters" don't have "it", people are going to get bored quickly and move on.

Drei I am sorry to say but I LOVE the new show, especially after Chris Evans has left. For whatever reason Matt, Chris and Rory make it work. I was never a huge fan of Top Gear, watched whenever I could and mainly the special episodes. I could be that I loved Friends and Matt is just Joey on Top Gear. Whatever the reason I think it is great. Sure it might have lost some of the Clarkson & Co. fans but they will get new ones.I have been watching the new series when I have the time and for the first time ever my wife sat down and watched it with me... first time. No idea why, could be Matt, but she said the show was funny and pretty cool. As I said, losing some of the old watchers but gaining new ones.The show is still about the cars with funny witty repertoire between the presenters without hearing "blundering idiot" every 5 minutes.Miles better than the rubbish that Grand Touring is.

stephenmcknight Top Gear started as a regional show in 1977, under Angela Rippon who now host rip off Britain for the BBC it been a show about torque more than cars.Top Gear version 2.0 took that to the limit, under Jeremy Clarkson leadership it was more about torque than cars as it was a challenge based show.that why Top Gear version 2 worked, it had enough car content in it to be car show but was entertainment based and that why it was a global smash hit version 3.0 was a disappointment in my view.the torque come from the script, that written by clarkson after his co writer Richard porter set the challenge and studio links simple format. Andy wilman producing got him a well earn international Emmy and other awards a talented TV producer in my view.
