Fifth Gear

anyone following this until that 3rd week of October when Top Gear comes back?

[Tavern Gnome]

Yep. I started downloading episodes as soon as the last Top Gear ended. Its a pretty cool show too.

New season of what? Fifth Gear?

Probably top gear, but a year behind, on BBC america. They keep playing "new" episodes.

BBCA hasn't shown anything newer than season ten, correct? I was wondering if/when they'd start airing season eleven (the season that just ended recently.)

[Scotaku]

The "all new" episodes airing on BBCA right now (Mondays, 8pm EST) are those from season six, circa the summer of '05. As above, season twelve airs on BBC2 in the UK beginning in October. When season eleven might air on BBCA is anyone's guess.

Meanwhile, Fifth Gear just broke out its fourteenth season with this past Monday evening's premiere episode on Five. I'm looking forward to next week's installment where Vikki meets Lewis Hamilton.

They're both excellent shows. I'd much rather NBC vy to air reruns of Fifth Gear than try to force an American version of Top Gear on us. [/off topic]

Never liked Fifth Gear. They all seem kind of "snooty" to me. I watch Top Gear for the awesome cars and the crazy shit they do, not necessarily what they think about a car.
