I really don't like Evans. Please never mention his name again.

Hammond or the new race car driver?

I love Hammond! I was talking about Mike Skinner, I just don't get it. Maybe its funny to the rest of the world?

Chris Evans should replace "The American"...

Chris Evans is Captain America. There are no other Chris Evans IMO.

I really enjoyed last nights episode. The whole series has gotten loads better. However I still hate "The American".

Hammond or the new race car driver?

Although Hammond just like the other two have quirks, I've never really disliked him. In a lot of ways it's easy to identify with Hammond to me. But not completely.

The new unmasked stig is kind of annoying because his commentary isn't ever funny. It's harping too hard on the whole image of Americans. But he can drive better than me so I get it, it's just a shtick, but it's annoying.

Besides him, and the unnecessary time wasting here and there, I agree, it's really improving and getting a good rhythm. The Buggy special was good, I hope there is another special this "season" but that's being selfish. With their budget they could do multipart specials a few times each season though...

They seem to be finding the grove more and more with each installment. They are getting back to more what I would expect from them now. I did about lose it with the "I arrived first" bit.......

Agreed.

Who's this happy dude in the back?? [emoji6]

Dunno, not me though. We were standing just left of the shot when the camera was on Clarkson, to that guy's right by a couple of people.

I get so frustrated with the backdrop - the scene behind them is always so blown out(despite using some type of fabric to knock the brightness down), and then that looks like crap on my video projector.

Yes, they are definitely finding their old rhythm again. Obviously, they can't use some of the intellectual property (phrases, segments..etc.) that BBC still own the rights to, but they are getting back to the shtick that made them famous.

I wonder if they were trying to adapt a slightly different approach at relaunch because of the series being U.S. based, vs the original series U.K. based. But maybe they hit feedback that U.S. audiences were fine with many of the UK jokes..etc.

Agreed. I thought the Le Mans/GT40 segment was great

I agree.

This latest episode was great. Lots of Ford material, but all very well done.
