Gave up halfway through the 3rd episode. Won't be watching again until Evans goes. These are the facts folks.

Matt and Stig as the hosts would be better. Stig with an interpreter or fucking chalkboard or a set of signs on sticks and wildly gesturing would have been infinitely better than Chris Evans.

Nop, the cringe isn't even edgy enough to make it cringeworthy.

Matty is pretty good though. Evans is fucking annoying on all levels.

Murrica here. I thought they meant him when they said Chris Evans is hosting Top Gear now.

I only supported Top Gear because I found out Clarkson punched Piers Morgan in the head.

If Chris Evans punches Piers Morgan in the head, I might watch it...

I gave up after the second one. I thought the africa part could be fun, but it was just a drawn-out car-commercial with the challenges and gags made explicitly to show off the car features. I never liked that with the original Top Gear, I definitely don't like it when you've got Matt Leblanc acting uncommonly stiff(and in fact coming off as a worse actor than he is) and the guests being the only funny ones.

>mfw the grand tour is going to be just more of the same, except with even more expensive cars in more expensive locales, and we won't be getting any more specials with three guys just fucking about with ancient cars falling apart on them in a jungle or across a mudflat

I'd imagine that they're going to alternate between good cars and shit cars. They're not stupid enough to forget that their shitbox episodes were the most popular ones.

Nope.
>>
>>71003337
The little I've read about it has all been about supercars in nice cities across the globe, seemingly putting all the money towards the travelling and car expenses rather than having to do with a small budget and thus using cheap cars in good locations or expensive cars in Britain.

Add to that the fact that Amazon is a profit-based company and I've got serious worries that they'll go the car commercial route to maximise their profits. I hope not, of course, but then I had some hope for Matt Leblanc on Top Gear as well.
>>
>>71003545
You're only seeing Joey, that's why.
Given that driving is his passion, he's suitable enough, but the synergy isn't there.

He is clearly not at ease in all the scripted stuff, especially not the stuff with Evans. They've probably told him to play it more serious as well, just so people don't see it as Joey on screen. He was fine when he was with that singer in the car, though.

But it is not difficult to get laid. What are your chances like for not landing 'a right couple of belters'? Like, being locked into a decently attractive, subservient woman sounds fine but if you end up with a thick-as-pigshit bitch that doesn't do as she's told, well then surely it isn't worth it. Also it doesn't really say anything positive that the selling point of your religion is a regressive attitude to women's rights.

The show is like the BBC execs knew Top Gear was popular for the edgy humour which they wanted to recreate but couldn't because it doesn't fall in line with their lefty agenda. The whole show just feels like it was made by a committee.

Nothing encapsulated it more than in the first episode where Matt LeBlanc jarringly squeezed in "I had a threesome once" ohhhh very naughty hehehehe
>>
>>71001002
Why did they even get this ugly motherfucker as the host? Is he popular in bongland? I watched the first episode and looking at his greasy face just made me inexplicably angry.

It's my understanding that he's one of those guys that gets into every party, but no one knows why or how.

I couldn't finish the first episode, tried again with the second episode and it was shit. Haven't watched any more of it. Let it die
>>
>>71001002
Me, but I skipped the 20 MINUTES of those two niggers talking about their old cars or whatever. Seriously the new SIARPC is fucking awful. Also, no news? Of course not because there's zero fucking chemistry, all that's left are the high production values, camera work etc. which is still good. The original trio shooting the series on their cell phones would be better though.

No, skip it and watch season 2. There were 22 seasons in total before Evans took over, so it's a bit of a time sink. But if you want a quick inkling as to what the hosts are like, then>>71008912
watch the specials. Then give the show a try starting from season 2.

This cheap car/race challenge hybrid is fucking atrocious.

>>71001002
Now's the time to tune back in, if you want Evans fired.

There was a number of stories saying they're minimizing his role and putting the guys from the extra show on. If ratings improve, Evans will be fired for next season. Show you respond to their attempt to make it better.

LeBlank was decent in his review of the new Ariel car.

The Challenges got too gimmicky and the rule breaking stuff, while a top gear staple is just too cheesy.

The first half of the reliant robin challenge had no challenge.

It doesn't feel like a show about cars and weighs so much more on TONIGHT ON TOP GEAR X DOES SOMETHING COMPLETELY UNRELATED TO CARS. Its still salvageable. Is Chris Evans a producer here? They need to change some of the producers too.

This could have been saved if they'd made it into a completely new show.
Get rid of the Stig, just have Sabine be the racing driver. The new track for SIARPC seems alright, just Evans is shit in the role.
Remove Evans. Bring in a better front man, and give the presenters some time to gel and create chemistry rather than trying to force it with shit scripted banter.

Sorry if I offended you (or your Dad's friends), but I was saying that it wasn't that big, as in hype and popularity, not that it wasn't UK produced. It just sort of happened. It wasn't a big event or a sensation. It just passed and the people who caught it agreed it was pretty good. Perhaps your connection to the show puts you in a poor position to judge its popularity.
