Anywhere online we can view the U.S version?

What cars did they run on your version of the show?

Just watched the show! I'm not really a TV guy (prefer movies and Lat-g!) so I haven't seen the origional Top Gear but a few times...which I liked it! With that said I and my family thought the US version was totally fine and we enjoyed it! The first segment was a little drawn out and obviously scripted...but that's ok...they are finding there place with all this!

I think they will do fine! Just going to take some time to master it!

i missed the premiere but i caught the re-run after. i was a little bummed that everyone seemed to give it a thumbs down before they even saw it just because it wasnt british. i thought it was ok for a first airing and the second half was actually pretty funny i thought with the lambos racing. i think it will only get better with time like the bbc version. so i liked it lol.

I thought it was weak. The british show is great and even makes my wife and kids laugh (we get it off BBC every week). We all saw the US version and turned it off. It just did not work even though the cars were cool.

Hmmm, that's strange. The TSA screeners are usually younger than that.
