Sure it wont beat the original top gear, but it is not that bad. I think it is great to have a top gear here in american, because we do thing diffrent then the British. Did anyone see the toughest truck episode? that was great. Just give the dam show a chance!!!!
@blowjobjohnson I agree. People are comparing this to a show that's had years to progress, learn, build chemistry...Top Gear America had one season. And know what? The UK version of Top Gear wasn't NEARLY as good in it's first season either.
Besides, all the stuff they talk about on the British show, the speed cameras, caravans, European racing drivers...I couldn't care less about that stuff, it's thousands of miles away. But a localized version can show me things I DO care about.
@Newevotime1988 Wow, your cool. Way to be racist. Ya arse faced knobjockey. That's what they say in your country. I bet your too stupid to figure that out even if your best friend told you. Oh that's right, you don't have friends. What's next your going to make fun of Indians because they gained independance from you. The French because they waged wars with you. Or any of those African countries becauuse they won freedom from you. We know a lot about the world, we aren't stupid, so shut up.
@DaSoggyWaffles Im sure you just made a little mistake saying that it was racist, according to you, you are smart enough to know that what you thought i was doing was xenophobic (which i wasn't being,but whatever), yeah im sure you are smart enough to know that, you just made a little mistake saying it was racist right? because you are soooo smart apparently.
@Newevotime1988 You know I'm part Welsh. I like the UK version a lot. Jeremy is awesome. I just hate how people pick on some one because of where they live. I agree that people are mean everywhere. I wasn't saying the British were mean, I was saying you were. No need to get so angry. I shouldn't have gone off at you I'm just mad at stereotypes Americans are known for. Like I said not all of us are stupid, just some kids who ruin their lives by not trying.
Wow, I kinda feel bad for the American top gear presenters because it seems as though everyone from both countries hates it. How bad can it be? People are probably exaggerating so I need to see it for myself.
i actually don't care who hosts what. i just watch the show to hear engine noises, wonderful car cinematography and track testing. you could have mr. bean, bill nye, and the mythbusters host and i'd still watch it if they had great cars.
I'm a huge fan of TopGear and would never want to taint its good name; however, I don't see why the US can't have a cool car program as well as long as it has the right cast and isn't some corny, factual laced crap that bores you to death
you cant pick some pricks and a douche to be presenters of top gear.. presenters have to be somebody thats acomplished with very high Iq like jay leno.. epic fail
Listen, bring the regular Top Gear to History or even Speed as well as BBC America, keep Tanner and get people like Jay Leno, Adam Corolla, Matt Farrah, or Derek D. Or people like Toshi or Craig Liberman who are big in the import world and car world in general and have worked on the fast and furious movies. Trying to hard to be like May, Hammond, and Clarkson gives the show a cheap and uncomfortable feel. You can't force chemistry. There are others who would make the show better.
nice editing. it will be an ok show just to watch for the cars, but im predicting it will get cancelled due to low ratings by the 2nd season, if it even starts at all. its not just about the cars. its about the comedy and chemistry between the presenters. i feel like i personally know clarkson hamster and slow, but not the stig cuz he never talks to me. lol. this show will be not bad but a sad failure towards the real Top Gear. every car show will go under because it will only be TOP GEAR UK
yeah, im American, and I absolutely hate ALL versions of top gear that aren't the UK version. No human should even have the right to remotly attempt to copy top gear uk, much less a group of dumb hillbillys from out west that have only owned a Ford ponto. There giving a wonderful show an awful name.
I love Top Gear and the new format that Clarkson brought to the BBC in 2002. And to be honest I was looking forward to American Top Gear. However, I just wish that they would bring originality by not making a remake of Top gear just like they did with Top Gear Australia, witch very cheesy . But by bringing their very own originality into program along with the presenters.
@notredame2191 lol so americas a big place, many many times bigger than the uk with allota wealth, and yet something as simple as a show about cars cant even be made, shows how good they are at doing whatever they want, son.
@RollAnotherJ Then you must obviously must not watch american t.v.... we have telivision channels dedicated to car shows. And yes, we are in fact good at doing whatever we want. Thanks come again.
@notredame2191 listen pal, no i dont watch american tv, im english you tit, i watch allot american show, fam guy, park, lost, flash foward, yano the good shows you make, and your not good at doin whatever you want, your country has allota money so it can do whatever it wants, doesnt make you good at it. and that exit was quite snappy wasnt it, thanks come again, good one pal.
@RollAnotherJ fair enough. your entitled to your own opinion. I believe though, that many things this country does are indeed great. And yes it does include tv shows, no credit taken from any other countrys. We can do anything.
@notredame2191 yeah america does some shit hot stuff and i wanna go back some day, but the problem with alotta americans on youtube is they dont aknowlege the fact that theyre so sick because of all the wealth that can be gained in that country (not sayin that you have that opinion), the UK had the largest navy in the world and controled most of the world, and look at the size of it.
@RollAnotherJ well that is why why are allies haha. I just went to London, Wales, Ireland and Paris this summer on a 3 week long trip. London was awesome, I saw some really beautiful cars there along with some not so beautiful cars haha. Deffinately a cool place and I will be going back some day also. Also went to Paris on Bastille day, that was quite an adventure. Some Americans can be arrogant, including me, but arent we all? It's just our nature I guess...
as cool as it would be, in my opinion to have an american top gear, this show just wouldn't be able to take off (which it didn't) because of how great the british one is already
the top gear America is gonna be filmed i L.A i think they are gonna wreck the top gear guss it is not the TV series its does 3 people that have that relationship together that makes it fun to watch.
@soupys You must realize that originally TopGear UK was a horrible failure and was actually canceled in 1998 because no one watched it. Then 5th Gear came out, and got everyone's attention. THEN BBC had to do something, so they brought back Clarkson and re-made the TopGear UK you enjoy today.... So.... TopGear UK is the success it is today because people gave it a second chance, don't ya think Top Gear America should be given a chance to become great, just like the original it came from...?
@Flabernat - the UK topgear is great today because the show's chemistry has developed so beautifully over the course of 8 years.
that is the reason why countries other than the UK (the australian top gear sucks too) should never even dream of replicating that chemistry in a show of their own.
they're trying too hard to be like the original top gear and that's exactly what they shouldn't do because they are GUARANTEED to fail miserably...
@FormulaOneFan4Eva I agree TopGear UK is the best because of the time it's had to become great. If you expect TopGear UK then of course you'll be dissapointed. It's not suppose to be a copy, but rather the American view on the car world with a theme we're already used to. Just have to give it a chance. Of course it's a destined failure if no one even tries to enjoy it...
@soupys No body is trying to. They're still there, but there's the added benefit to a version of the show Americans can relate to.
Caravans, speed cameras, touring cars...big whoop, that's thousands of miles away, but it strikes a chord with the Brits. A localized show for Americans CAN strike a chord with people here and be a very good succuess if people stop comparing it to the UK version, which it's not trying to be except where the BBC contract obligates.
@soupys These guys who thumbed up this comment, no offense, but they have no idea about the American Show... It's all about a new show based on a succeed platform (TGUK)... The presenters of it, are not trying to replace anyone on the current show.. It's all about being themselves, and it has big success too. Anyway, i love both shows, and i agree that the TGUK it can't be replaced.. Although the TGUS isn't trying to do that.. It's a new funny interesting show and it's going well...
Hahaha it's on the History channel this show will soon to be history thats for sure
