Love this show its such a laugh I like how they are all different it makes some interesting debates. Will be back in Autumn so cant wait for that, I saw a replay of the episode where they make the limousines yesterday and they had to do a number of tasks and one included taking real celebs to the awards on London that was hilarious a super stretch fiat panda. But JC is a legend that guy should be PM .
I cannot bear to watch this programme.
Jeremy Clarkson is one of the most annoying personalities on TV.
The worst thing for me is I actually like Richard Hammond too.
I know I'm digging this one up a bit, but I am a Top Gear fan for sure. I honestly only discovered what the show was at the end of last year. I had seen clips of the show here and there in videos on the net, but never knew what it was. Once I figured it out, I did some searching and I have almost all of the episodes downloaded. I would love if they'd bring out all the seasons on DVD. Their 3 personalities work so well and yet clash so greatly at the same time, that it's just the perfect combination. I have never watched a show of any kind that gets me laughing as much as Top Gear. I've been recording them on my DVR. My wife is far from being a "Petrol Head," but she enjoys watching it with me and I've got my dad hooked now too. Love it! Can't wait for the new season!
I thought there was going to be a US version but have not heard much about for a while. As far as the UK version I love the show I just wish Clarkson would tone down the we are better than everyone else attitude, it's VERY annoying.

From what I read here (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Top_Gear_(U.S._TV_series)) the US version ain't gonna happen. I can understand it, actually. They were trying to make it an NBC show, which would have never worked. A show like that would have to be on Speed or some other network.

The superior attitude does get a bit tiresome sometimes. Especially the whole "American cars are all rubbish" attitude. But, I just take it all with a grain of salt because the rest of the show around that attitude is just too damn good to let it bother me.

Yea it seemed like the UK show just had something you could not recreate. I know to try and ignore his attitude, because your right it's the segments are gold. I LOVE the challenges.

Clarkson likes coming out with statements that upset people. It's not just you guys 'over the pond' he's upset. Some 'naughty' remarks about many regions or towns in the UK as well. He's always done it and I doubt he'll stop now after all these years!
