Last night, the US version of Top Gear premiered (finally).
To know me is to know my deep and unabashed love of Top Gear. Since I first discovered it several years ago, I have watched every episode BBC America has made available, I have read up on it, and I have made sure the DVDs are in my collection. I have also followed with great enthusiasm (and sometimes consternation) the progress of the American version, which finally premiered last night on the History Channel.…

As a brit watching it for the first time here in Saudi Arabia, come on guys don't copy it! Do it your own way and make it work! No one can be may, hamster or clarkson, so don't be them! I love the cars and the humour, so another top gear that works would be great! Just a copy of the uk show!

I don't like it. my friend just discovered top gear for the first time and he's only seen the US one so he thinks its the best thing since sliced bread. He was telling me about a few episodes the US one did like the semi truck one and I'm just thinking wait the UK top gear already did that! You can't beat the original!

Everyone with a horrible review is obviously a huge fan of the english version. I had never seen a single episode of top gear before. I very much enjoyed the american season. This is probably because I never saw the english version. But I found there chemistry to be good. If you guys don't enjoy it don't watch it. I'm always amazed at people who waste time complaining about how bad something is. Stop watching then. Problem solved.

Since there are very few cars manufactured any more that are British, that must leave them with an awful lot to say...
