Top Gear: Patagonia Special
Discussion
Ok so it's formulaic.
Shall we start a list of other programmes that are formulaic?
Ramsay's kitchen nightmares for starters.
Any makeover programme with faux dilemmas and artificial time constraints.
Car SOS is one of the better ones but still grates. But one could list many.
Hotel inspector.
The Mary Portas shambles.
Where another celeb goes into sort a failing business that they know duck all of the detail.
The TV industry finds something that works and wrings the last drops out of it.
Strictly come whatever on Ice X factor.
Bake off. Masterchef. Great British menu.
List goes on forever.
If you don't like to watch something there's a ducking off button. t

All of the above does not stop people wanting Top Gear to be better than it is. Shall we start a list of other programmes that are formulaic?

There would be an audience for the old style Chris Goffey programme. See above.
Whilst agreeing that too many of these programmes do seem to be produced by kids out of school, why don't the naysayers produce a programme and get it on Community channel as a starter. Along with caravan finder and Motorhome tv and uk boating. If it's good it will get picked up.
As a minimum they should get some cars to test even if not exotica.
Call it a challenge for 2015. Best wishes for success.

Fresh ideas would be a start. One suggestion would be to replace the writers every three series.
Need new presenters for that to work, no one takes the current crop seriously anymore.I love the programme for what it is and that's pure entertainment and long may it continue.
I'd love to see a new motoring series like TG used to be but with new presenters.

aaaaand we're back to 5th Gear which gets whinged about ad-nauseam while not producing anything like the audience of TGI love the programme for what it is and that's pure entertainment and long may it continue.

And you still feel the need to come on here and tell a load of people that couldn't give a fk what you think.
Stop frothing at the mouth, you gimp. Simply agreeing with the oft repeated mantra that if you think TG is a pile of steaming horsesk what you think.t presented by retards, then don't watch it. Thanks for tuning in.
That's awesome. In fact I'd go so far as to say it's a game changer.
ETA just remember you can only use it once, so unless you've got something else in your collection of cute photos, you'll need something else on hand for the other internet tough guys you encounter. And there's a lot of us, so jump to it.
