Top Gear

[stephen cartwright]

missed it, though to be fair, I have missed every episode made of top gear.

could someone sum it up, in the medium of song?

 

[lurker]

I could pick faults with the The Grand Tour but the magic is still there of the trio and their antics. This Top Gear lacks that magic.

It really isn't

Hideous scripting and shit scenarios on the grand tour

Top gear have kept all the best staff

The content is fine, but I agree the presenting is wooden as.
Harris is good when he's reviewing cars, but those film continuity gags were painful.

I laughed but that's because I must have seen ronin a few dozen times

 

[Lukas73]

I thought it was ok, yeh a bit wooden but they're new to telly....'cept Joey

Chris Harris is a reet tit

The bloke is cringeworthy.

 

[consettsafc]

I didn't enjoy it.
I compared it to when Scooby Doo was re-launched with Scrappy Doo.

The bloke is cringeworthy.

how?

 

[Lewberry pie]

I thought the same as I have for the last 5 years or so, the banter is always usually shit, but the challenges and travel parts are always good and as long as they don't spend too long looking at cars go round a track then it's canny fun to watch.

Basically, the format has become a bit tired. They've run out of places to travel to (last night didn't exactly do wonders for tourism in Kazakhstan) and whilst the presenters are knowledgeable enough, you don't have opinionated dad arsehole, geeky arsehole and middle aged rocker midget daredevil arsehole to loathe/like as appropriate. Instead we've got acar geek, a should be kids TV presenter and a fat Joey from Friends. Not enough arseholes, essentially!

its nee grand tour

Only watched the first episode of GT. how was the series received in the end?

 

[Kevsgreat]

I liked it, the three presenters are canny. I hope they get rid of some of the scripted stuff though.

I liked the Grand Tour but it didn't seem as tight as Top Gear. Like they had a feature floating about with some filler to make it up to an hour. Hammond has been a right little tit in it as well.

He was really good imo

Certainly nowhere near as many arseholes as your feline porn channel

 

[ighty seven]

Much better than last years garbage

Evans read out a review this morning saying it was much better without the annoying bloke

 

[The Exile]

Much improved overall I thought. Still a bit of work to do.

There's never been an episode made that's been perfect looking back though Marra, I think the critics are looking at everything with a fine tooth comb since the pubic wigged clarkson punched an Irishman

 

[MattyM 09/109]

I think they are on the way to cracking it, bunch of people being more themselves than trying to copy whats done before. Night and day improvement.

 

[jacko100]

They don't really allow Rory Reid out of the studio too often do they!

Even Eddie Jordan got to go to the US this week.

 

[joemcdokes]

how?

Too much going on in the expressions department, totally false, needs to step it down alot for me.
Just doesn't look right.
