Studio filming for Top Gear US is underway…

Honestly, it didn’t look all that bad. As far as the three having “chemistry”, I think you’ll have to give them some time to develop that.

The thing about reviewing European cars, they’re reviewing CARS. The original Top Gear reviewed their share of US cars, as well as European AND Japanese cars. I imagine they’ll evaluate any car you can purchase in the United States, despite it’s country of origin.

I think, that this might become a duplicate of fifth gear, which is not a good thing. Although I cannot really judge from watching just one clip, I really hope that Top Gear US will be able to match up to Top Gear (UK). Also, did they import the Stig? Because I remember American Stig to be quite of a fat arse actually.

I love Top Gear and they already show it in the US on BBC America and it should stay there with Jeremy, James, and Richard. There is no need for an American version which will be nowhere near as entertaining as Top Gear. The reason why Top Gear is so enjoyable and loved by so many is because, as others have said, of the chemistry of the guys. This is not seen with the new group, they seem awkward and try to hard to be like Jeremy,Richard, and James. The one with the beard and the glasses is has the most annoying voice in the world and is trying way to hard to be Jeremy. In all they are ruining Top Gear. Worse yet, it is possible that the real Top gear could not be shown on BBC America in an attempt to prevent Top Gear fans from being drawn away from the other show and watching the real Top Gear. Hopefully they stop this and keep the real Top Gear playing on BBC America.

Oh man, they’re so boring they’re even putting themselves to sleep.

I had read the reason the real TG crew didn’t shoot the US version was because Jezzer didn’t wanna be away from his family that long but I suspect it may also have something to do with his not liking America very much!

Tgfan,

Sure, that could be, but they couldn’t find anything better than these guys? Really? Did they even look or did they let some intern hire the first three guys that hit on her?

at one time, Jay Leno was asked about bring Top Gear to America, his thought were that American car makers couldnt stand the criticism of the crap they produce

I hope this isnt going to be as bad as the top gear australia version. I mean that one nearly turned me off to watching the british version.

what does ShimiC post about singing cars have anything to do about this subject at all? is he retarded? is he trying to get his post count up? someone should tell him there is no post count! good lord, what a moron!

I guess I am just a little bias, but I like the UK TG best because of the guys. However i think this could be a great wake up for american car makers if they let the US TG cast rip them a new one like GRUFF DAN said below.

Top gear was about the hosts and I guess the producers just don’t get that…. I will NOT be watching anymore. I guess I’ll be trying to figure ways to get the bbc version from the torrents or however I have to do it.

I’m watching Top Gear US as we speak. One thing, it’s not as exciting as Top Gear UK, but atleast I can understand the comedy and little jokes they have hear and there. I can say this, NOTHING will ever compare to Jezza, Capt. Slow and Hampster…

Bad imitation of a great show. Save a wasted hour of your life and watch the real thing on BBC. The US version is boring with dull banter and the only cast member worth watching is the pathetic version of the Stig. Pathetic.

Well you can barely watch the show here because every minute there is a commercial

Our celebrity guest was Buzz Aldrin and our car is a Suzuki Aero…please!!! I’d rather see a Geo out there…(american inside joke). the track is 1.6 miles long but its okay i guess…we had 3 super cars all were Lambo’s…The SV, Balboni and i forgot the other one…but it was yellow. my mind is fried from the garbage i just watched O.o Why do they try to copy something thats already a LEGEND???

oh yeah the yellow lambo was the superleggera btw…wasnt a bad 1st episode…there’s just NO ENERGY init but towards the end it was really good…

wow…..
i watched the first US top gear episode and i must say….they are painful to watch… US emphasis on cars? fine…but they are not even talking about problems of the car, much of the specs…
alright so not gigantic loss….the challenges are very similar to the British version so thats a plus….
When i comes down to it, a US version can be done, but the presenters / hosts need to actually sound like they have passion, not be so matter of fact or sound like they read from a script. The highlight of the cars were like just reading the cliff notes version of the spec sheet…They started to joke a bit with each other but it definitely did not have any sort of chemistry with each other…It felt too planned to forced together…..
they do like cars, that is undisputed but…they NEED TO BE NEUTRAL!!! They were more critical of their lambos then they were of a viper that has had fuel pump wiring issues and was somehow faster on a track that compared to 15 seasons of British top gear track looked like a handicap version…..
Jeremy Clarkson, James May and Richard Hammond must be laughing hard at “the colony”

I have watched TG for many years.The three guys are all known to the English viewers. They are well known. The USTG are tring to pull the show off with total unknowns.I don’t think it will work with these three. It may work with a cast of well known people. The first show was bad.

Have you seen Top.Gear.US what a cheap copy ok a great UK show ep1 the gun ship lock on test this has been done and taking the “P” out of the public sorry us UK do it better

This show IS BORING the uk top gear is more fun to watch stop the us version and just do the uk top gear! I have watched the first episode and the second all I can say what the hell if it got any more boring …………. This is the most boring as dull I might as well watch paint dry that how boring it is. The uk top gear is fun to watch.

Give it time, it will take maybe a season or so for the chemestry to develop. If that happens, the possibilities are endless, as long as they dont go into Alabama. I dont expect them to match UKs intensity and energy, the original will always be the best.

My husband, who is the nicest person I have ever met:) is a huge Top Gear fan….both UK and US….also a 2nd time Mini Cooper owner:) I own a VW:) Anyway….he has been recently diagnosed with severe stages of Glaucoma and also had an Ischemic stroke recently……..so I really want to buy him tickets to Top Gear (US or UK) before he loses his vision or other parts:) How do I find the tickets for the show? I can take care of the other accomodations! Thank You, MAG

In my opinion you are not right. Let’s discuss. Write to me in PM, we will communicate.

It seems to me, you are mistaken

!. very nice settup. I like the background and music.
2. The ‘emo’ stuff comes off with a slight poser tone. Work on making it less obvious that you’re not what most people call emo.
