I deleted my DVR of episode 3 about halfway through. I really couldn't take it anymore. I will record one more episode and I am going to give up on this show. The dialogue has just been unbearably akward so far. The celebrity interviews make me cringe too.
But since I switched to Directv I now get BBC so I can watch to original Top Gear episodes! :thumup:

tanner is a pro driver, he can drive his ass off.Originally posted by Turbo3000 View PostCaught it last night. The moonshine bit was ok, I laughed twice..maybe.
BBC TG Guys seem like much better drivers to me, dunno why. The driving I saw last night was just blah.
The "famous" people thing is STUPID. The entire idea is lame, but damn at least get call it notfamous if you are going to have that guy on there.

The things they were doing with these old cars was decent enough but it didnt feel like a "road trip" at all. It felt like they showed up at each set piece and filmed what they needed.
Good idea but overall executed poorly.
No need to mention any other segments of th show because they were all bleh.
Why the fuck dont they let Tanner fly around the track in one of the super cars and review it like jeremy does on British top gear? Granted tanner isnt as funny but he is a helluva lot better driver.
Anyway, overall this last show gets a D -, saved from a complete F because some of the scenes made me laugh a bit.

Ya when they were filming the aston in the flats it just lookded good same when the V10 was in that old mill that car was hot.Originally posted by THE BOUNCER View PostSo the second episode was better. If last weeks episode got a D (saved only by the last segment with the lambos, otherwise it would be an F), this weeks episode gets a C+.
The first segment was not that great. Same as last week, just a little tired and unfunny.
The Aston Review was amazing with some of the best film work I have ever seen, amazingly beautiful backgrounds etc..
The interview was much better and felt natural.
The last segment with the 370 and the blind guy was pretty good too.
The hosts had better chemistry between them this time and even the guy with the beard was not terrible.
Much better then last week, no doubt.
first thing I thought when I seen the 370 "BOUNCER" lol blind guy segment was intresting.

I have a crazy idea; take the BBC version and Broadcast it in America, then everybody wins.

Alot of the ones too where they have challenges with building cars and such are good too.
