Has anybody ever told you that you are like the Kanye West of The General Board?

Have I ever told you you're hot and sexy and fiesty and I want to zerberts your belly?

James May flying the caravan into airport airspace was pretty funny.

And I've always enjoyed the various Stig rumours, lawsuits and such.

The hosts of the US version are actually better drivers than the Brit hosts (Stig excluded)...Tanner whatshisname has some actual racing cred.

(most auto journalists have no real racing chops....I held a Competition license when I was an internationally renowned auto journalist, won a few races and had respectable chops, but little of what makes a real race driver)

The Brit version is the one true Top Gear.

THIS!

My favourite was when they converted the Reliant Robin into a space shuttle. It showed that whilst they're good at taking the piss out of furriners they are even better at sending themselves and the British up.

I think I have exhausted NetFlicks of all of the episodes they have. Would like to see some new ones.

Any of you Top Gear fans see that Jeremy Clarkson got booted from his show? No surprise, arrogant dick that he is. Funny but, arrogant dick.

 

[Lancecastor]

Its his show,really... Without him its done.

He is the Don Cherry of the motoring press.

Blowhard dinosaur , but still an expert.

Right!? I don't know if I watch it because of him or in spite of him. Both I suppose.

Even though Clarkson has gotten himself into trouble, I doubt that the franchise will allow him to get shitcanned.

So far just "suspended". I wouldn't be surprised if it doesn't last long though. He is still one of the BBC's biggest moneymakers and Top Gear is the most popular show in the history of ever.

 

[Lancecastor]

Yes, just a tempest in a tampon.

The British version of Top Gear is so far beyond anything that horrific version we have in the U.S., the BBC should sue the American producers for having the same name.

I made two valiant attempts to watch the U.S. version and stopped after five minutes each time. Complete and utter drivel with absolutely nothing related to cars.

There are some things that Brits get right and Top Gear is one of them. It's wildly entertaining! The Americans' version is rubbish.

Though, when it comes to The Office the Brits failed miserably. The American version was immensely hilarious!

Carry on.

 

[Lancecastor]

The American Top Gear cast aren't that bad....but I don't like them.

In their own right, each copies the Brit mold for the show; they're just not as entertaining to me.

That's the real issue...copy-cat American shows that recast a popular British show are rarely as good as the original.

It's even worse in Canada....up here, they copy American shows.

Top Model Canada? Dancing with the Stars Canada? The Bachelor Canada?

Network television is like the Newspaper....in its death throes.

An online petition asking for Clarkson to be reinstated by the BBC already has 350,000 signiatures.

Jeremy "fuck me harder" Clarkson & Co are driving across the Northern Territories. Bluebell, come watch it with me and bring some cake.

Bloody love Top Gear.

so....

this mysgynisic racist arsehole gets a job at the bbc, he calls for trade unionists to be shot.. makes numerous racist jibes.. assaults someone....

violence can hardly ever be justified, but in clarsons case, since he declined to take part in a reality series about trade unionists and the dangers they face in south america... it would be good in his case.

stewart adamson is stil dead btw.

 

[butters]

can't abide clarkson, never could. he's why i DON'T watch the show most the time.

if it's true that he assaulted a producer(?) and he's on his last warning, then i don't see how the beeb can reinstate him. everyone's replaceable.

good to know you'd take one for the team. fata and bluey'll have to make do with the dvds

It could be a multi camera dvd, with direcors cut (clarkson in syria...sponsored by ISIS ). the fucking stig, aka roy rodegrs wannabe in a keep shit car paid for with licence payers money, locked up in abu grahib... the production value could treble the sales of 'the stig' christams bubble bath collection.

The BBC licenses both Top Gear US and Australia. I watch and enjoy both UK and US shows, and don't worry about this suspension, both Clarkson and Top Gear will be back in no time. The BBC earns about 2/3 of a billion dollars a year from this show and they are not going to give that up!

Its always about the $ isn't it? Same for athletes, no problem with murder as long as they still make some profits.

the piece of shit punched an assistant producer in the face because there'd been a catering mix up and dinner hadn't been ordered. they were in the yorkshire dales - food could have been got from anywhere. i hope the guy sues him for assault.
