This is truly terrible stuff. These characters sound as if they was hired from a sitcom.

All the Americans I know either watch BBC America or download the episodes on Finalgear.

They love the British version.

Somehow, I doubt that. America is Ferrari and Lamborghini's biggest market.

I thought that trailer looked quite entertaining, definitely not embarrassing drivel.

[webbyst]

Didn't seem too bad until they started all that high five malarky

[rsv gone!]

I've watched the first episode of Australian Top Gear. Very weird. They'd got together a 'Jeremy', a 'Hammond' and a 'May' and the show format was the same.

Very weird. Like watching a parody or listening to your favourite song ruined by some modern 'artiste'.

[Tiggsy]

Yeah...what it needs is a perm'd tt stuck in 1986, someone who looks like he should be doing steam engine shows and a middle aged boy band wannabe......then surround them with single men in WRX jackets.

I'm sure plenty of people find the "appeal" of our show a little hard to work out.

[Halb]

Not so bad, the moonshine ride looks fun. At least they will be able to drive like that without worrying their hips will splinter

[Oakey]

Why were two of the presenters wearing almost matching shirts? Oh.. and... "A HUNDRED AND SIXTY SEVEN MILES PER HOUR IN A FOUR DOOR!!!!!11111""

It's 2010... not 1910, what's the surprise?

[Dan_1981]

I'd watch it.

[judas]

Sorry, but that looks like fun I'd watch it.

Me too, looked like good fun.

[james_tigerwoods]

Looks utterly ridiculous - I'd watch that

[G0ldfysh]

Having seen what the 'merkins did with life on mars. This actually looks ok

[hornetrider]

Nothing wrong with that - I laughed.

[Fastra]

Sorry, no drivel at all there - a complete drivel free area no less!

Something else for me to download then!

Looks bloody excellent - can't wait.

[tank slapper]

Those guys are very annoying. I doubt I could put up with that for an hour.

There's two Hammonds and a man with a beard?

They're Top Gear's American inbred cousins.

Billy-Jim May
Billy-Rick Hammond
and Billy-Bob Jeremy Clarkson.
