CLANCY2KTID Posted June 14, 2016 Share Posted June 14, 2016 Sunday's episode was the best so far, if it continues to improve week on week it could well be a success. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lisa Cuddy Posted June 14, 2016 Share Posted June 14, 2016 I thought I quite liked the new presenters for the first couple of episodes but it turns out I only like Matt Le Blanc and Sabine. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
welshbairn Posted June 14, 2016 Share Posted June 14, 2016 I thought I quite liked the new presenters for the first couple of episodes but it turns out I only like Matt Le Blanc and Sabine. Sabine. I also thought the extra programme presenters were ok the first week but went off them the last one. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lisa Cuddy Posted June 14, 2016 Share Posted June 14, 2016 I think Evans is playing too close to the style of the old presenters and he's too excitable to be a Clarkson. Le Blanc cannot be a Hammond or a The Other One so there's no sense in him trying which is how he works while the other doesn't. I do hope it gets better though because it's not as awful as it could have been and I am still enjoying it in part, just not as much as I did. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've never liked Evans anyway, but he's been given too much responsibility as the figurehead of the new show. He looks rightfully terrified on camera, he's shite. The anchor job should have been to a boring motor journalist that nobody had heard of before, like Clarkson when he started. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jambomo Posted June 15, 2016 Share Posted June 15, 2016 Just saw a trail for this where they have chefs trying to prepare a meal in the back of cars. Is this what it's come to? The old show was never far away from stuff like that itself. Pretty sure I remember them cooking in the back of a caravan one episode! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BaSeDG0DSA1NT Posted June 15, 2016 Share Posted June 15, 2016 I have never enjoyed Top Gear and found it complete boring. I watched the past 2 weeks of this season and enjoying it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jambomo Posted June 19, 2016 Share Posted June 19, 2016 Just caught up with tonight's show and it was excellent. Caught part of the old show on Dave earlier and it was just the three of the messing about and was totally set-up for all these accidents and stuff to happen. I honestly think the new show is now much better. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zen Archer (Raconteur) Posted June 19, 2016 Share Posted June 19, 2016 The terrible trio must have taken the fanny wranglers with them as there is a load of growlers hanging around in the studio shots. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Caught part of the old show on Dave earlier and it was just the three of the messing about and was totally set-up for all these accidents and stuff to happen. I honestly think the new show is now much better. With the absence of as many games in the Euros, I caught up on episodes 3 and 4 today. I agree. Even Evans is a bit less annoying. I really like Reid/Harris. Cut down the length of the celebrity bit and they're onto a winner. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kerrdavidson95 Posted June 19, 2016 Share Posted June 19, 2016 I really enjoyed the Harris & Reid segments tonight, but I still don't think Chris Evans works as a main host, would rather see Le Blanc taking the lead role all in including the celebrity segment. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

welshbairn Posted June 20, 2016 Share Posted June 20, 2016 Betway are apparently taking bets that Top Gear will be canceled. At £650,000 an episode I wouldn't mind it being put to better use, like covering Scottish football. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Al B Posted June 21, 2016 Share Posted June 21, 2016 Ditch Evans altogether and you've already got a great show. I think the features they are doing are great, and I really enjoy watching Matt LeBlanc. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
welshbairn Posted June 21, 2016 Share Posted June 21, 2016 Having celebrity chefs pretending to cook a meal in the back of a car/bike was excruciatingly shit, imo. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
