I bet everyone will still watch it though. And the ratings will be all good for the Beeb. The last few series of the old format were largely awful but we all still watched week on week.
Television Top Gear
- Thread starter Ramshock
- Start date
I hope it's really, really, catastrophically shit and still makes the beeb way more money than the last few seasons.
I sincerely hope the new Top Gear fails. I loved the old show: yes it was scripted and corny but it was a laugh and a bit of escapism. The BBC disgusted me with their whining about PCness and as far as firing Clarkson, that producer had a face that made you want to punch it (a la John Terry). I cannot bear Chris Evans: he gives me the creeps for some reason. And that Sabine bitch: what a cakling phony.
Rant over.

Oh the old "she was wearing a short skirt" debate
Clarkson assaulted someone for feck sake, and it was right of the BBC to get rid of the tit.Agree with you on Chris Evans, though. That guy should've stayed in 1999. I'd probably enjoy the new Top Gear if not for him and that boring tosser from the F1 world.
I'll watch it and probably no enjoy it but I still will say I do to annoy Jim Davidson fans.
Not punching people is PC nonsense now?
Boobra's right about that PC nonsense.
In what way?
I was being facetious. Lame attempt at a shit joke. Boobra rather than Barbara not being very PC etc

Sorry to hear that
Merman?!Sorry to hear that
Only in tvland could Chris Evans be the routine go-to answer when a programme is deemed to need a boost.
Crazy isn't it? You probably couldn't even daub racially offensive slurs on his garage wall in your own shit without the Liberal Democrats having a go. This country's gone to hell in a handcart, I tell ya.
Personally I think the BBC should deliberately go out of their way to alienate and annoy the weird section of the public that are obsessively bitter about a heavily indulged millionaire TV presenter being sacked for punching a work colleague like a normal person would be (ironically the exact same section of the public who flame the BBC for letting their presenters get away with anything in the past) and determined to hate a TV show that hasn't even aired yet just to prove some kind of childish, Richard Littlejohn-esque point about...I dunno, chocolate mosques?
Personally I hope it's absolutely brilliant and widely beloved by an entirely different audience, just so the hoards of shed-dwelling little Englanders up and down the country will implode in silent, impotent rage into their Daily Expresses* as they prepare for the
C̶O̶L̶D̶E̶S̶T̶ ̶W̶I̶N̶T̶E̶R̶ HOTTEST SUMMER ON RECORD!!!

I gave up a few years ago, used to be my favourite programme on TV.
Trailer for the new series:
New series starts on Sunday at 8pm. Actually looks quite good, from the previews on the TV. I doubt it can be any worse than how the other one ended up.
I hope it's amazing. Best, funniest television ever created amazing.
I hope it's average, PC, and splits opinions on the internet.
The more trailers there are, the more I think Matt LeBlanc was an absolutely brilliant choice as a presenter.
Really, he has an extremely boring monotonous voice. I'm still not feeling this new top gear at all, I'll try it but I'm not expecting anything like the old guys version. I can't see where the humour is coming from.
New Top Gear on BBC2 tonight, will watch it see what it is like, can you spot the mistake.
Matt LeBlanc is taller than he looks there?
Evans has dyed his hair and Sabine has gone grey?
The crudely shopped explosion behind them.
The Stig isn't that big in real life.
Bootcut jeans in 2016.
Why the hell is Stig standing on Bugatti?
That Bugatti seems to be balancing on two wheels?
The stig no longer has legs?
Jeremy's wind problem was the real reason for his sacking. Looks to me like it was just one curry too far.
its going to be terrible, but I'll wait it every week until the new Clarkson show comes out, and I'll probably continue to watch it after that
There's a lizard driving the car?
Thanks to the thoughtful mod who altered the thread title. I'd have missed this otherwise.
Hakuna matata.

FFS already hate the ginger haired tosser's annoying voice.
That intro was so bad, and what an annoying voice.
Already shit.
