This is a TV show that in order for you to understand you need to see how it started compared to top gear uk, mind you this applies only to clarkson hammond and may not the chris evans version which no one cares about, this show didn't know what it was until at least s03ish then it started getting MUCH better, s04 and s05 started actually getting pretty cool and s06 is quite interesting to watch i really can't give this show a 10 because it simply isn't quite up there but it certainly doesn't deserve a 5 rating either i'm sure this show will get better in the future and if you don't take this too seriously and consider what's available to watch you'll see it's not as bad as people make it look, what i think is that they should've never carried the top gear name that was a huge mistake, they're good they just weren't as good as clarkson hammond and may and now that top gear uk is over all they're doing is carrying a bad reputation legacy that doesn't even make sense anymore.

I think the people that didn't like the show either compared it to something else or had no sense of humor.This show was one of the better cleaner nicer more fun shows that ever aired on public television. They would do things with cars that would cost a lot of money and super fun to watch the carnage and antics of these guys.If you want to buy or even watch a fun series this is it. Too bad the world is full of hatred because here was a real show.Okay I have to say something else because I don't have enough lines. The actors in the show were not actors they were just real guys being silly having fun. Maybe they weren't cool enough for some of you but these were just regular guys having the time of their life. Watch the show and enjoy it because what's left of public TV is Satanic supernatural bloodshed. If that's what you want no problem there

What a bad idea. The American version of Top Gear is a total snooze. It lacks the creativity, charm, excitement, humor, interest, and just about everything else that makes the U.K. Top Gear so enthralling. Not to mention that none of these hosts have the charisma, personality, and wit of the original show's hosts. All this amounts to is a boring car show. Is Top Gear supposed to be simply a car show? If that was what it had been all these years, there wouldn't be so many seasons of it. The fun, the magic, the chemistry is completely missing in Top Gear USA. This attempt at an American take-off reminds one of that old saying about trying to capture lightning in a bottle.

forget I'm a huge real top gear fan while reading this.. first of all i know 2 years olds that have more personality, and are funnier than these 3 morons.. either they are only saying crap they read on a script (which is what it seems like) or they are really the dullest people on TV.. why does every thing they say seem like a nerd that thinks he's funny and knows nothing about cars except for what he read in the brochure wrote it for them.. honestly i have watched more than a few episodes and not one word seemed like it came from the spur of the moment... now for the I'm a real Top Gear fan part..it is sooooooooooooooooooo forced its pathetic.. from the very first episode its like they watched Top Gear and said well those guys run into each others cars so ill do it.. and those guys did that so well do it.. only were going to do it soon incredibly lame that it won't even come close to entertaining you as much as the closing credits of the real top gear...also why the hell does every episode end with tanner magically winning so he and only he can drive the supercar.. its stupid.. just say he's the race car driver he gets to drive the car.. don't do some stupid technicality in which he wins so he drives.... he's going to drive because he's the driver... this show would be better if it was just tanner talking to himself or a pet dog or a pet rock... or anything other than the two wet blankets he calls co hosts...
