Top gear USA was great. EHH EHH. WTF is this crap, individually these guys are great but mashed together is a poorly pre scripted boy band. I keep trying, I do but keep turning over after 10 min. TG UK died now TG USA bugger me. its like the death of a favorited pet Thanks for killing another great show. SEE YA..
... View MoreThis iteration of "Top Gear" is suffering from the same problem that the UK 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.
... View MoreYet another version of Top Gear for America misfires on pretty much every level:It's so slick your attention slides off it. Its so fast more times than not I have no idea what I'm watching- who won what competition?And worst of all two of the presenters are dead fish with only William Fichtner coming across as watchable.How did this get on the air? It is absolutely awful most of the time and easily the worst Top Gear I've ever seen
... View MoreAs I sit here, I find myself perplexed. I'm desperately trying to craft clever superlatives to adequately convey to you the seemingly unobtainable level of terribleness this show has managed to achieve, yet anything I can think of falls cavernously short. This show is truly awful. You could scavenge the world to find 3 blind and deaf mutes from different countries and cultures and put them in a room together and within a matter of mere minutes they would have more chemistry than the hosts of this abysmal pile of trash can muster. The segments are drawn out and boring, offer no useful insights nor information on anything remotely related to automobiles, and have yet to arrive at any semblance of a point. The "celebrity" interviews are painful to watch; almost as painful as the mostly silence as the "star" navigates the test track. The only redeeming moment of this monument to crap are the end credits when you realize you've reclaimed your life.
