American Top Gear

I didn't see it, but I love 'Top Gear' (the real one) so much that I don't think I could stand it.

Have to agree with Perks here, I love the original Top Gear too much to watch another version. It wouldn't seem right. Like I was cheating on it. Can't do it. Sorry.

There's a German Top Gear too, which lead to this...

I've seen the episodes that guest star the German Top Gear team. They were pretty good. Although I couldn't watch German Top Gear. Probably because I don't speak German

In total agreement with Perks and jvc.

Why on earth would that show appear on the History Channel anyway?

Emmmm ... don't chop me off at the knees for this.... but does American TV do sarcastic absurdity? I can understand why the American viewers get the original TG but it is a very British humour so ..... Could the TV companies do it?

I'm only asking because we get a lot of American TV here but nothing like TG.

I've been meaning to check the American version out.

Can't see me been a fan though, part of what I enjoy about TG is that May, Clarkson and Hammond are pretty good mates so you've got all the funnt banter and piss-taking in challenges and stuff.

It's something I can't see there been in the American TG is they've got hosts who aren't mates or at least familiar with each other.
