HAS Top Gear run out of gas?

Post by NeRo »

I've sort of lost interest in Top Gear - I thought it was only funny in parts. It now looks like I'm not the only one ...

I do still enjoy Top Gear but it is a little predictable these days. I think the show in its current format will run its natural course over the next couple of years & probably morph into something different. :santa

Both Carrie and I watched the last one on Sunday and it was ......... not right! far to "out there"

they need to get back to the good old formula and stop these long and long winded trials at being soap producers!

They lost it years ago - the 'mole' says the south american special is as good as it was but this series is crap - but why is the scripting so bad. Richard Porter from EVO used to come up with goods and his articles in Evo are bril.

It is a little canned at times but still makes a Sunday evening fun before the return to Monday mornings :)

Agree entirely. It's become very tired.
