top gear, usa
It's good that they have an actual driver. I like the Brit show, but they're all automotive ponces behind the wheel.
tivoed an episode which i am watching now. typically for an american show, too much rapid-fire editing, unnecessarily gratuitous product placement shots when the entire show is a venue for the products and bland casting decisions. still watching a guy race skiers down a slope was pretty cool. the casting is the most disappointing part. as hokey as those aging brit boomers are they at least have personality.
ultimately this show is a soulless note for note remake of the original with american backdrops instead of european but since nearly everyone can still watch that i dont see the point.
i like the english guys too.
