I'm going to go against the grain here...I thought tonight's episode (Fiero, Roadmaster, Cutlass) was really entertaining, despite the complete lack of originality when it came to the challenges. I thought the presenters were a bit more comfortable (less teleprompter-like) and it seemed to result in more natural comedic timing. Tanner is getting left in the dust though as the other presenters improve. And to think, I thought he would be the best of the bunch. It's become clear that's not so.

If we as viewers weren't comparing it to the British version, I'm sure it would seem better, but alas, that is an inevitable comparison seeing as how they continue to copy the BBC version so closely. I must say though, the patriotic sentiment of this one was a nice change.
