15 min... COULDN'T STAND IT.
i actually like matt but everyone else can go... and wtf is this 'EXTRA GEAR' ? on BBC THREE? utter sh!te lol
TGT THE GRAND TOUR ! BABY!
7 minutes and all I could think was . . . My eyes my eyes
shareI'm 34seconds in and thought best google reactions to this rather than keep watching and waste my time. Seems baddddddd.
shareit just doesnt work... It doesnt pull you in , some are annoying, theyre all trying waaay too hard to the point of being completely unnatural... The thing in such shows has always been originality (which is not necessary per se but IMO the worst thing you can do is to try to emulate and play someone else role, almost never workS), chemistry, right vibe/not being a pretentious twat.
Top Gear had it and for example Fifth Gear never did, no matter how hard they tried and despite having many good segment. And this seems the same.
And all the money in the world wont save them.
27 horribly excruciating minutes. The topgun guy was vomiting because he knew what the show was going to be like.
shareI watched the whole thing, just to be fair and give it a chance. And DAMN IT, THAT'S TIME I WILL NEVER GET BACK!!
The show was dull and boring, and wasn't funny at all. All of their attempts at humour felt forced, and it just sucked big time.
I'm done with it, I honestly thought it would be fun to watch it fail but I don't ever want to sit through this show again.
Bring on the Grand Tour, Clarkson Hammond and May are the ones I want to see!
You think that's air you're breathing now?

I stopped at 15m to come here. Poncey comes to mind.
edit: it is one of my son's favorite shows so we watched all of it Tuesday evening. A couple of LOL moments (drone flying into cliff) but pretty lame otherwise. I downloaded and watched about half of ep 2, 10s step advanced to the end, and then deleted. Will not bother to download ep 3, it is simply not the same show, nor is it a good decent show as a replacement. And I agree with those who think it will gradually shift into pure non-challenging PC correctness on all fronts. We'll know this for a fact when they are officially invited back to Argentina. Poor Damian Lewis having to share the stage with 3 others. That'll get you some quality guests down the road.
My Chimp DNA seems to have lost its password temporarily. Sluggr-2
I thought it was only 10 minutes long. Kept skipping forward looking for good bits that didn't look like repeats and without that weird guy screeching all of the time (someone give him a tranquiliser or find his big brother to take his place!).
