That's the same thing I have to say when I push my ride to and from car shows.

Watched the second episode tonight --- Aston Martin V8 vs V12... and the Mitsubishi EVO....

Cars were cool -- but once again - I think they choose the wrong guys to do it. They're just not credible enough and I guess I just can't get passed it... even though I will continue to watch.

Another lackluster episode. IMO, it's all Tanner. For some reason I just can't take him seriously. I will say the 180 parking job Brian did was epic.

I'm really looking forward to next week when they do a car challenge. It seems that is always my favorite UK episodes.

I have something positive to contribute to this thread!

I took my wife to a taping of the US version of Top Gear (We should actually make it on TV as well). We both left the show saying that the host need to work on their chemistry. Also, the footage of the cars is actually taken by the UK top gear film crew. The show will be MUCH better once the producers find the right pairing of host.

I haven't seen it yet, mostly because I think Tanner has nothing to do on Tv as a host. Great driver but he is not a TV host. of course that is my 25 cents.
Tv companies seem to differ as he is in a few shows.

I love the UK version watch it all the time.
