I've seen the new top gear and am NOT impressed.
The only 'ray of sunshine' is that nutty German Girl, Sabine Schmitz.
She should have her OWN show and be rid of all that deadweight

That is a pretty entertaining wikipedia entry. Thanks! She does sound like a good "replacement" for Clarkson, attitudinally.
Chances of the BBC having a GERMAN and FEMALE host of TopGear? Near Zero.
Clarkson, by acting like a 5 year old singlehandedly destroyed the Franchise, going forward.
If I were James May and Richard Hammond, I'd hire 'vinny' to kneecap him. But, as it turns out, those two idiots SIDED with Clarkson and apparently turned down an OBSCENE amount of money to continue on top-gear.
Will some OTHER network pick 'em up?
Stay Tuned.

I should have writen 'acting out', a deeply psychological term.
But I get it. He comes by being a A-Hole quite naturally.
Still and all, don't you think somebody in his (former) position should have a little better Impulse Control? And taking it out on subordinates? No possible excuse.

Some of them can't help it, because they just are better than us, aka entitled.
Some of them manage, if they bother to get to know their soldiers, some just can't quite manage it.
Mind you, lots of people have similar self-adopted limitations, I probably do too!

Clarkson, May and Hammond have signed a deal with AmazonVideoUK a year ago.TopGear had a female presenter (Vicky Butler-Henderson) before Clarkson.

Good,
Fan base MAY follow them if they can maintain the 'edge'.
BBC TopGear is DOOMED if fans follow the 'presenters' instead of the show.
Apparently I saw 'old news'.

Looks like a mustang. I don't know if I will even give the new lineup a shot. The American version is crap.
When I saw this it made more proud then ever to be a Mustang owner..That's what's nice about American V6 and V8 engines as well as the 4Cyl.You make them wicked fast for very little money.

I am a LSX guy. I get a kick out of the guys taking truck 5.3 and 6.0 motors with 100,000 -300,000 miles on them. Put on a turbo setup and other minor mods and run in the 9 and even the 8's.
The new Brit one is barely tolerable to me since they still have good cars. American TG is unwatchable and total crap.

I still chuckle thinking of some of the stuff the old crew pulled off. Driving across the south of America with the gay stuff and political stuff on the sides of their cars was a classic IMO.
I love the comments. The new show isn't so hot but I still like seeing new cars like the Aston Martin Vulcan so I watch it.
The after show segment called extra gear is weak and how did they not call it overdrive?
ET
Me too. I'm in it for the cars and don't care what people think of the script and hosts.
