K5SS Posted June 2, 2016 Share Posted June 2, 2016 Just watched it and I am not quite sure what to think of it. What did you guys think? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DizRotus Posted June 2, 2016 Share Posted June 2, 2016 (edited) Same name, different show. Just like calling a Pinto a Mustang II did not make it a real Mustang. There is a plethora of car shows on cable. Many are interesting, but many are not. Call me a stig in the mud. To me, there was only one show that had Jeremy Clarkson, James May and Richard Hammond.

K5SS Posted June 2, 2016 Author Share Posted June 2, 2016 Agreed. This poor crew had enormous shoes to fill and they have a massive up hill road to win over the die-hard fans. I am still waiting for the Amazon Top Gear with the original crew. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

richieb Posted June 2, 2016 Share Posted June 2, 2016 Has "The Stig" ever been identified? What about the US version with Tanner Faust, Adam somebody and the guy that was part of NASCAR? Like it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wolfbane Posted June 2, 2016 Share Posted June 2, 2016 Has "The Stig" ever been identified? What about the US version with Tanner Faust, Adam somebody and the guy that was part of NASCAR? Like it? No, compared to the BBC original version it sucked. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mustang guy Posted June 2, 2016 Share Posted June 2, 2016 The US version of the show is un-watchable. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mustang guy Posted June 2, 2016 Share Posted June 2, 2016 I just watched the new Top Gear. Unless they make it better, I don't think I will watch another. I too will wait for the Amazon production. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BusaDude Posted June 3, 2016 Share Posted June 3, 2016 The new version with Evans and LeBlanc was okay, but it's just not the same without Clarkson, Hammond and May. I'll probably DVR it for the car reviews and the Stig laps but fast forward through the gimmicks. I can't stand and don't watch the American version.
