One of the best? Try THE BEST! I've watched the show religiously for about 6 years now lol the american show isn't bad, but will never compete bc the presenters are totally different. But I still enjoy it.

It's one thing for this show to be the best car show out there, it's another for it to be one, if not, thee best show in Briton, but it's a Completely other thing for it to be one of the most recognizable shows in the world. Top Gear is certainly at the top of their game, the writers, the presenters, you couldn't get a more perfect match. So when are they comign State side to Challange our American presenters like they did with the german ones? lol

That was great.

I think their "tough truck" segments like this are the best just because it's so out of the ordinary for them. The Bowler Wildcat test was another really good one: http://youtu.be/dLvlfAyduvA

Yeap, still the greatest car show to ever hit TV.
The Car Show was alright, dunno if anyone caught it. Seems way less scripted, the chemestry between them is pretty good, but it reminds me of "The X Show" that used to air on FX. It was a guy show, kinda like if Maxim Mag had its own TV show, it would be a lot like that.

We shall see how TGUSA does for season 2.

The first season of the original Top Gear was also pretty awful. Clarkson and Hammond got a feel for each other and they swapped out Jason Dawe for James May and then it started to click. I haven't watched much of TG USA, but I would like to see them give it some time.
