Some of the features have been okay, but watch it on iplayer in 35 minutes, don't waste an hour of your Sunday on it.
They need to kill it. Shelve it for five years, then completely reinvent it with all new format, and quality drivers (Ex F1/Rally etc) who have character, and Pre existing friendships.
Its nothing but a pastiche of the Clarkson era. It's failing badly.
Sorry not a clue how to inbed YT videos.
The gimmicky "top gear" bits are the least successful- the Bond bit made me fast forward. As do the stupid power washer/muck spreading bits.
The studio guest bit varies from dull- awkward- excruciating (Greig was terrible. Tennant was good though). It needs to go... As do most of the studio bits to be honest- the scripted banter is flat.
It works best when they're driving & chatting- (the supercar in US bit was good as was the bangers to the rocket launcher) rather than trying to emulate Top Gear, perhaps aim for fifth gear & work from there.
Does anyone else find the strobing of the headlights during the super slow motion shots vaguely distracting?
Assume with these bits removed, you'd be left with the opening and closing credits?
FWIW I think this season is a vast improvement on the last, but they still need to find their groove. I'm optimistic they'll get there.
I think it's going to appeal to youth a lot more than the grand tour too, all three of them are far cooler than Clarkson and co.
Everybody forgets that they had years and years together before it was even at its best, the new guys aren't going to be like that off the bat.
As for the guest bit, it's much better without Chris Evans talking all over the guest
Having said that, I'm quite enjoying this series so far - much more than the last couple of Clarkson series. It's not at the level that it was 10 years ago, but neither were the last couple of series with Clarkson.
obvious

an autocue.
And why didn't he just take the jet all the way?
Or just the motorbike?
Don't get me wrong, I think he's a bellend. But still, if the deal was riches and people that don't know you talking about what a twat you were... I think most would take that.
