      I personally found episode 2 boring I think they are having issues with trademarks and copyrights with BBC. So I would be shocked if they were able to do the moderately priced car bit. I also think the reason they keep acting like they are going to bring celebrities on and then killing them off is because they can't do the bit where they drive around the track. I will be interested to see what the next episodes do but someone has to reign in clarkson a bit. Every joke is terribly staged (the ape joke in particular) the whole show just doesn't feel genuine. The military thing I still don't even understand why that was in there I didn't find any aspect of it funny (once again staged)

        First episode was pretty good. Second episode blew. For an hour long car show, I felt like less than half was actually about cars.

        I hope it gets better.

          False.

          Even in SA they know the value of the uber rare e30's. Back in the early 2000's I was looking for a replacement for my 86 325es. I contacted a cousin of mine who knew of someone who recently (at the time) purchased a 333i that was sitting for some time. Even back then they didn't want to part with it as they knew it's heritage and value in the marketplace.

                "What was the last movie you watched in here?"
                "Mystic River"

                How can anyone post that video and still argue he isn't a redneck. If you're from America, you're a redneck.
                Edgar Allan Poe? Redneck
                Bernie Sanders? Redneck

                    I personally thought the show would be a lot better. The trailers looked amazing. Still going to continue to watch it though. I agree with most people that 2nd episode was boring as hell.

                      Top Gear has been kind of shitty just like this show for a long time now. The only good episodes are the travel episodes or budget challenges.

                        this episode was the best of the three. James May in his Rolls Royce drop top in Italy.. magnifique!

                        The ending was the best though

                          I agree this one was the best. Hammond pissing off may to no end. Feels like things used to be

                            Episode 3 was astronomically better than episode 2. Back to old form with the Grand Tour segment and I am happy for it. I get that they have to change a few things in order to get away from TG, but driving around the world in three different cars is what makes watching these guys an absolute delight.

                                Yep, episode 3 was good. It was a satisfactory penance for episode 2.
