I'm actually enjoying the new Top Gear although I agree that last night's episode wasn't the best. I think Matt Le Blanc and Chris Harris are relaxing into the roles now and the chemistry is improving. Rory is not great though and clearly left to play the lesser roles. He looks like Shrek and when I see him on screen, he appears green to me....
Towards the end of the old Top Gear, I really hated it and stopped watching entirely. Clarkson et al are real twits and their interaction is no longer amusing.
I'd like to see an actual car show made where they properly test normal stuff. Hasn't been much of that since the demise of 5th Gear. Couldn't care less how fast cars go round a track, it just isn't relevant to me in any way. I'd rather see a review of dailies where they have them for a few weeks, using them, carrying their kids/dogs/bikes/sofas etc and tell me what they find in reality.
Call me boring if you like!
