The chemistry between the presenters took a long time to form - the original format of the show was a direct clone of the UK Clarkson Top Gear of the time (as was the Aussie version) and felt pretty woeful and forced .. a bit like the current UK Evans Top Gear in fact.

However, once they ditched the studio-based format and just went to a each show being a full challenge (with the occasional car review that linked to the theme of the challenge) it got a lot better, and over time the three US presenters have really seemed to gel and find their own presenting styles.

It was more consistently good when compared to the final few UK Clarkson Top Gear series, though when Clarkson and mates were on top form (an infrequent occurrence in those final series) they were untouchable.
agreed love the US TG
