Matt Leblanc to co-host Top Gear with Chris Evans

[J.Rizo]

who knew finding porsche keys in central perk would lead to a hosting position for top gear 20 year later. lol

this should be cool though, I like him. because of friends and just in general. tribbiani has my support.

I guess this also means they didnt consider my application for the vacant position #truestory

smh you should've started a petition. we could've voted you in as the "average joe" that most viewers can relate to.

I kinda want Adam Carolla involved, but at least LeBlanc is a motorsports guy too.

Here's hoping Matthew Perry and David Schwimmer make a guest appearance

Why not just can Chris Evans and hire Matthew Perry and David Schwimmer as co-hosts

I can dig it. Nothing is guaranteed, but I think he has the potential to do pretty well.

Im with you, this has good potential. Who knows, we might have TWO good car shows now.

UK top gear needs to stay UK, throw an american in it, just ruined the whole fucking thing. you could not do any of those patriotic British things like clarkson used to do with the E-type jag for example.

Okay, so how many hosts do we have now? 5?

Its just Chris Evans and Matt Leblanc right now, and well the Stig. Chris Harris and Sabine Schmitz were just rumors that got out of hand. It doesn't matter if Jesus Christ himself hosts the show, BBC's TopGear will always be in the shadow of Clarkson's, May's, and Hammond's new show. At least Evans and Leblanc will know how the American Top Gear boys feel. If I want to watch car reviews or watch them go side ways, thats what youtube is for, but I watched Top Gear for Jeremy, James, and Richard.

I am uninterested. Want to see what Amazon Prime and the boys bring.

[AndrewBird]

I fucking hate "Friends".

That said, I think he will be a good host, however I'm not the least bit excited about "new" Top Gear. Top Gear died with the departure of Hammond, May and Clarkson.

I am eagerly waiting on their new show though.

Who's Joey Tribiani?

Kids today.

See, when Matt was a star in a reasonably priced car, he seemed to be on the brink of suicide. Very self deprecating.

It seemed as if he REALLY needed to get a good lap time.

Makes you wonder.

[agent]

Meh.

[GAbOS]

I honestly think this could be a good fit. Matt seems like a good fit for Hammond's old role.
