New Top Gear. Discuss  :popcornsoda:


The basic TG formula that made this show what it was hasn't changed, the features are all a bit samey but it does what it says on the tin.

IMHO Chris Evens was more than up to the task of replacing JC, tough act to follow in the most successful car show on planet Earth but he's a proper petrol head and it showed (although he was far too f*cking shouty) and Matt LeBlanc was a good foil. Need more Sabine too!

 :happy2:

Features were boring and predictable.... CE is a clown trying to be like JC. MLB was a bit annoying.

New TG track is cool though. Liked that bit.

Tbh I didn't think it was too bad. It's never going to be the same as team Clarkson made it so a lot of people will just hate it from scratch.
They can't go changing everything about the show can they.
I just wish they'd go into more detail about there guests cars etc.

AJP:
It could have been much worse. I think it's got the legs to improve. I couldn't quite adjust to Evans' voice over the Viper feature, and it got a bit 'cars for dummies' when he was talking about downforce.

Matt Le Blanc wasn't too bad. Sabine was ok. All a bit scripted, which it always was with Clarkson etc, but they don't quite make it feel as natural as OG Top Gear.

I agree on the new RX track, it made better telly than the old one. I was watching the WRX on Quest earlier in the day incidentally, and quite enjoyed it. Seems the sport is having a bit of a resurgence, so the track ties in and keeps things current.

Ramsey can drive.

I'll watch it next week.

RBS:
I miss "capt'n slow", "the hamster" & Clarkson

There is a lot to improve! It's in it's baby's shoes!
Must admit I like a lot the New reasonably priced car and the new track lay-out!
Will follow the new series!
