Pure $h1t! I didn't even wait till the end.
I love Top Gear, Big fan of Clarkson.
I prefer the dicking around eppisodes over the serious car reviews, It's turn your brain off entertainment.
Tonight, Really could have been condensed to about 40ish mins though.
Few funny bits, Clarkson's unloading technique, Him with the patient in the back with Stig driving, Hammonds patient launcher.
But really drawn out, Especially at the end in the abandoned housing estate. Drove the same bit of road in a good few takes... It was like they just needed footage to fill the hour slot. (Similar to last week)
SIARPC was okay, Not really a fan of this as it's normally someone promoting a book/film... Seemed a genuine guy and had a very good lap.
About a 5/10 for me.
Better than Heartbeat......
A pretty dismal episode - a few laughs to be had but that's it..it probably didn't help that I was watching the CSL episode just prior to that:happy:
Last week's episode with Bentley, M6 and GTR was OK, but this week was utter tripe.
It's getting too predictable & formulaic now.
The "comedic" modifications if the cars to meet the "challenge" is a case in point, you know the approach each of them will take, the same as before. It was funny the first time, 4 or 5 years ago.
The predicable bashing in to each other, staged "comedy" moneys like patient falling out of ambulance. What's the point?
At this stage I'd rather see them make a proper, genuine attempt at one of these "challenges". They should scrap those comedy type ones. But their audience is growing and maybe that's what the masses want....
I think this has all been well documented.
Accept it for what it is - "automotive themed entertainment" and move on. Have a realistic expectation and then you won't be dissappointed.
Theres plenty of other "serious" car reviewing channels on Youtube etc. I particularly like "Harry's Garage" which is a channel running videos of Harry Metcalf owner of Evo magasine. He does quite good reviews as alot of the cars he actually owns.
M3 & i8 on tonight....
Edit: as Sky planner had wrong info... [emoji15]
And i8, much better than last week already!Quote:
