is it weird that the most interesting thing about this iteration of the famous British car show is the American actor?

Honestly, we know Matt's actually a car guy, and he seems like he wants to have fun with something like Top Gear, but he seems like the ONLY one who would actually work in the lineup.

Jesus Christ! That was an awful show.

I swear Chris Evans was paid for each word he spoke.
The 'Star in the car' track was a clusterfuck. Rallycross!?!? Who thought that would be a good idea?

Can't wait for the Amazon one to start.

Jesus wept, in the interview with that Ramsey comedian fellow. You could almost pin point the moment when he realises he's made the biggest mistake of his working career.

He's the only genuine petrolhead on the show ffs
>>
>>15162147
Is this really the case? I was hoping he was co-hosting the after show whilst doing on-and-off features on the main show with the other hosts while the 2 "main guys" do most of it.

Such a fan of Chris Harris and so disappointed.

Chris Evans is over-enthuiastic fake. Matt LeBlanc seems half asleep. Their energy levels need to meet somewhere in the middle.

I haven't seen it yet but someone who collects ferraris of all things is probably a cunt. Not even an arab prince either.

The original top gear crew seemed truly passionate about what they did. It didn't seem fake because they brought the show up from nothing to being massive. Im not going to watch this cringe fest

It was ok, but the magic is gone and a lot of it felt really fake. I know they scripted a lot of old top gear but they had an easier time hiding it. The top gun thing was really cheesy.

>>15165554
are you kidding me? leblanc did okay but you can tell he was given no opportunity to come up with his own lines, and he clearly had a boundary he wasn't allowed to cross with evans.

the writers took old episodes of top gear, and ran with the same sentence structures, styles, and filmography. The filmography was excellent, and that's a good thing, it should have been the same. but with a whole new cast you can't reuse the same lines. I mean, the bit with the ariel nomad:
>Cut to beauty roll of car's dash
>LeBlanc [off-camera]: And there's more cleverness
>LeBlanc [on-site]: This bodywork... if you can call it that, is made of the same material as traffic cones... so it bends instead of breaks, in case you hit, say, a small mountain.

This exact style, even with the word "cleverness" has been used before. It's just identical. They wanted the same damn show with different people with no chemistry whatsoever. They needed to just do Series 1 top gear and cool down and just review cars and develop relationships before going all stupid.

>>15165725
there's a big difference between reworking what you have and adapting it to new people and just trying to redo exactly what you had before changing your cast.

they tried so hard for it to be different in the wrong ways, like changing the Cee'd to a 'rally' Mini.
>>
desu it wasn't THAT bad, only reallly terrible part is Evans. My only problem is that they try too hard to beat the old Trio at the old trio's game. They could have rebooted with fresh ideas, instead they did the exact same thing with a different crew but it just lacks the chemistry 'Clarkson and co' had

Welp, about to go watch this, hopes are not high

What I am expecting is US Top Gear only worse, the cast will have no chemistry, but the writers/staff will try and force it anyway, and Evans will be a shit stick try hard attempting to be the same kind of personality that JC was, but failing at it

The only hope this show had was to go its own way, branch out in new directions, not FORCE anything, I expect they failed completely

I can already see the ratings for this.
1st episode: high because of interest/curiosity
2nd episode: still relatively high
3rd episode: moderate decline
4th episode: sharper decline
5th episode: everyone that was curious and didn't like it has given up by now, besides autistics that will probably last until the 2nd season
6th episde: this is a safe benchmark for ratings

Which is why you hire friends. (insert Joey joke).
But seriously, you need to hire people who have an established rapport, if I was in charge, I'd pick a comedy duo or a known quantity.

It's been the mistake of every single top gear to not check the chemistry of the people before airing - TG USA sucks because of this, TG AUS sucks because of this, same story every time.

DESU if I was in charge of say the Australian show, I'd hire the guys from MCM.

>i think matt leblanc was absolutely excellent.
LeBlanc was okay. He might get better, especially if he develops some sort of unique personality to present the show with, but he definitely isn't excellent now.

But Chris Evans was terrible. Just absolutely terrible. And the show revolves around him. He was in most films, he presents the show, he interviews the guests. And he was unbearable during all of those.

LeBlanc can't clean up after Evans' mess.
>>
>>15166754
It felt like Evans couldn't decide whether he was doing a Clarkson or a Hammond impression.
>>
Holy shit, how was Extra Gear so much better than the actual episode? Can they just... make that the new Top Gear instead?
>>
Yep, my initial hunch was correct: Harris should be the lead presenter, with LeBlanc as his sidekick and Reid and Sabine as backup. Evans should be fired.
>>
>>15166805
Everyone knew this is how it should be long, long before this mess had its first episode.

>I actually liked the rallycross, at least they tried something different.
Looking back on it, yeah that was a new bit.

How the entire Star In A Rallycross Car section was presented though was fucking atrocious.
>>
I honestly prefer the new cast. There's no reason that there shouldn't be more "minorities" (not actually the minority anymore) represented in a show so popular. It makes the show a lot more interesting, having opinions of people who, you know, differ a little bit. If you disagree, you care more about cars than you do about humanity, and that's disgusting.
>>
>>15166931
I think star in a reasonably priced car is not actually BBC property so they had to change it somehow.

>>15166998
They're bad but honestly Evans is probably worse.
>>
The cast aside from Evans(Who needs to be taken out and shot) looked like they had some good points if they have some bonding time, Le Blanc especially has promise. Extra gear needs to be merged into the show, Harris is top tier.

They could have really done with not fucking the set up, like changing the interview format and making it a stage instead of just some seats in the crowd, and having all of those pink shirts.
Without Evans it has some good promise.
>>
It really needed more input from Sabine. It's redundant to have both Stig and her since they both seem to have filled literally the exact same purpose.

Of course, they'll keep the Stig, muh merchandising/recognizable 'face'

I liked Matt, but he's way too bland, but he seems like he'll improve with time.

The show wasn't about cars, there wasn't any news, or really an actual review (Corvette and Snekk doesn't count, the Z06 didn't even get around the track, and it was obviously scripted either way, I doubt Sabine is so shitty that their 'chase' would work like that. Whole thing was cringeworthy though)

Speaking of which, it looks like they retooled the normal track a little, or it could just be me being biased against Fiat-Chrysler.

Extra Gear is, amazingly, not terrible. But it doesn't need to exist and will likely die before new new Top Gear does, it's a pity Harris and that alright black dude aren't on the main show. This really needs three presenters.

And fucking hell, the interview was awful. I hated the rallycross idea at first, but it grew on me. The interview itself was worse than the most boring Clarkson ones, it didn't even pretend to be about cars and was essentially 10 minutes of shilling from that autistic kid, at least Ramsey has a The Ferrari.

You should watch 5th gear then.

Where TG excelled in their cast was not just that were friends, it was that they represented a lot of people.
Jeremy Clarkson was easy to relate to for people who just want shit to work, who likes outlandish humour and a good time. He has the personality of a dad from a sitcom, which most of us or our dads are like in one or two ways.
Richard Hammond was always interested in new things, he's always appealed to the part of us that enjoys seeking.
James May appeals the the boffins among us, he's very technical and fastidious, but we are all in our own ways.

This sort of dynamic is sometimes called the "Night Before Christmas" dynamic and it allows us to feel empathy or a bond with people we've never met.

New Top Gear doesn't have this; you have a loud annoying used condom and a guy who likes driving cars, but can't plug a coolant leak - both of which are traits no one sees in themselves, even if they are apt.

As shitty as it may seem to the english speaking world, I'm fairly sure this incarnation is going to work regardless.

Now they'll just shove some basic, easily translatable international humour everywhere and it will probably be even more succesful around the world than before.

I'd say in general TG's peak was seasons 8-10.
>>
>>15168815
yep
>>
>>15165725
its not really the "same" though

Top gear is now a show with car-reviews, scripted car-centered sketches and celebrity interviews while it used to be a show about three blokes who do a TV-show with car-reviews, scripted car-centered sketches and celebrity interviews.

There used to be a certain meta-ness to this show and it seems totally gone now.

I'd say the korean top gear is better than this trash and I don't even speak korean. Watching it in another language without subs was better than this.

Chris HARRIS can drive, he's the short brown guy. He's brilliant. Of course, Evans was likely threatened by him so it really seems that he was likely given the boot by being shoved off to ExtraGear.

The autistic ginger is Chris EVANS, who is a complete shit.

chris evans doesn't even like cars, hes just a slimy cuck who collects ferraris

Kinda meh, clumsily trying to find its nieche.

Getting a feel of it, a bit rough but fun.

Top of their game, best bantz, best challenges, best adventures.
>13-18
Slowing down, still fun but not as good.
>19-21
Really poor, overly scripted and all the fun of spontaneous fuck-ups replaced by queued up slapstick right off the pages of screenwriter.
>22
Seemed like they were getting back on track and then everything crashed.

>>15168765
The Junk is here to stay because the Beeb signed a three year multi-million pound contract with Chris Evans.
>>
>>15168888
The moment audience numbers don't make in revenue for the episode production the show will be scrapped and Evans will just be delegated to some other production.
>>
>>15168909
The BBC gets most of its funding through the Television License and it just beat down the government's plans to cut its funding by raising a huge whine about how it's so much better than commercial television.

It's here to stay, especially as they'll be trying to show how much better it is to have a nicer, less offensive show than the old version.

just like Two And Half Men without Charlie Sheen

>We don't talk about catering on this show anymore.

What did he mean?
>>
>>15169615
Jeremy punched the lazy Irishman over catering.
>>
>>15169615
He means he doesn't want to talk about getting served once GT comes out.
>>
Jesus, every single fucking segment was a travesty start to finish.
>Viper review
Shitty completely scripted "chase" followed by a poor delivery of a joke written for someone who actually understands comedic timing
>Reliant drive
Terrible imitation of old Top gear, neither of the two supposed petrolhead presenters could perform maintenance beyond pouring oil in. Leblanc genuinely looked he wanted to stop and leave.
>Star in original concept donut steel
they picked two people who probably aren't even aware of each others existence. And while I do find the general idea of adding dirt track interesting, they could at least keep it interesting by using a car that's not actually supposed to be doing it, like the whole point of SIRPC always was.
>Nomad review
Leblanc awkwardly delivering lines written by a screenwriter so British he have tea brakes. I could practically see Hammond doing it as the text was suited for him perfectly.
>Blackpool challenges
Again trying to imitate old Top Gear without any charm, "drag" race could produce some good jokes, but BBC's new clean direction probably didn't allow any of it.

Also no news section? That was always the best part, even when the rest of the episode would be boring you could always bet on the news.
I can't imagine them getting even 3mil viewers on the second episode, now that people know how shit it is.
>>
>>15169683
>Also no news section?
The presenters can't talk about car news in an interesting fashion.

Harris could, but not Evans and Leblanc.

The show was weird. It had a similar feel to the old Top Gear but it really does feel like its lost its soul.


Was kind of pathetic how cast members were trying really hard to emulate the old cast.

The main host (Evans) is the least likeable person on the show and I actually liked LeBlanc better.
>>
>>15169683
>Also no news section? That was always the best part, even when the rest of the episode would be boring you could always bet on the news.
That was pushed to Extra Gear.

Having watched that Extra Gear earlier, it's so much better than the main product.

The celebrity interview wasn't even shilling,
>>
>>15169683
>>15169710
"news" were in extra gear
>>
Things are going to be so weird.

The familiar show now has a different soul and the different show will now have a familiar soul.

I think even the three amigos new show is also going to feel out of place but Im sure it wont suck as bad as the new TG.
>>
>>15169719
I did like LeBlanc too, but I have a suspicion it's purely because of association with Friends, as he was really unenthusiastic about his lines and at times felt like he couldn't decide whether he wants to do deadpan humor or enthusiastic one and was stuck in-between.
>>
I just can't imagine any of the new hosts being able to just record something like this.

idk what is up with the female symbol on the chick's shirt. Its like, yea ik you got a grill now, cool. Why do they need to assure you that shes a female? idk mane
>>
>>15169768
I also feel like the cast members are not going to dick around with each other the way the old cast members did.

Watching that episode was like a bad dream. You just cant believe its actually happening.
>>
>>15169768
>>15169801
It felt like i was watching one of those alternative Top Gears like the US or Australian Top Gear.

>>15169811
Man, I watched Russian Top Gear, and even that pile of shit was better than Evans'.

I didn't think it was that bad.

I enjoyed Snek vs. Z06. The 3 wheel bit was awful though.

>>15169725
What the fuck?
News is an integral part of the show.
>>
>>15169615
WHY IS HIS HEAD SO BIG
>>
Wow, that was mediocre at best and downright cringeworthy at worst.

Matt LeBlanc was the only funny thing in this and even he only had one funny line, the rest of it were just literally copypasting the previous series, like the Nomad segment and the Viper.

But oh, they were original, the star in reasonably priced car is two stars in a rally car, and no "bombshells" at the end, because that needed to be pointed out, also that catering thing was fucking retarded.

They should just ditch the national pride and have Matt as the main host, also ditch that smarmy Chris Evans.
>>
>>15170366
Matt LeBlanc and the german chick were pretty good - they at least didn't make me cringe.

So basically the people that should have been the worst (the amerifat and the token broad) were the best.
>>
>>15170510
to clarify before the amerifats get all butthurt, i meant an amerifat on a traditionally british show.
>>
>>15170510
Yeah, except the whole segment with Sabine Schmitz was painfully obviously skewed in Evans' favor.

I mean, couldn't they have done a better job at making it look as if they were going at it seriously?

>Viper Spins and the Corvette hides in a hangar really far away from where they were driving.
>Corvette, with an actual racing driver can't do a turn as tight as the viper driven by a british moron radiohost, and then the viper just teleports behind the corvette.

It was abysmal.

The old top gear was scripted as fuck, but atleast there was suspension of disbelief.
>>
>>15170621
I agree there, but, all they do is test the cars and get an opinion of them and then write a story that tells their opinion in a creative way. So that's nothing new, as you said.

Could they have done it better? Absolutely.

I also felt it was lacking commentary on the cars. Like they needed to drive them around more and be more specific on what they liked and didn't like, as the previous three would do so well.
>>
>>15170658
They are afraid shitless, the old Top Gear crew had balls, because what would Ferrari do if Clarkson refused to do the PR stunt about it, not allow Top Gear to review Ferraris? BBC needed the trio more than the trio needed them.

Evens and LeBlanc can't have their opinions yet, because they're untested, it's like BBC turned Top Gear into safe place, with no fighting allowed.

It's like bright bouncy castle compared to old top gears bloody cagematch.
>>
>>15170719
I see what you're saying, but they ultimately said that the Viper was superior to the Corvette.

Chris Harris (who wasn't in this episode) was banned from reviewing Ferraris and Lambos at one point for various reasons. Ferrari I think he argued that they bully you into giving them a good review or else they won't give you cars (duh).
>>
>>15165988
>NEW AND IMPROVED AUDIENCE.
>>
>>15170755
didn't he scream at them?
>>
>>15170749
>I see what you're saying, but they ultimately said that the Viper was superior to the Corvette.

Yeah, in a obviously scripted shitfest, which had the viper just appear behind the corvette for convenience's sake.

Wanna bet that the new Top Gear hosts are never going to lose another Car vs. X race?
>>
>>15170770
>Wanna bet that the new Top Gear hosts are never going to lose another Car vs. X race?
I don't get it? You saying they'll never compare two cars like that again and have one lose? I'm lost.
>>
>>15170840
No, car vs. something else.

like Car vs. mountain bike or something like that.

Old Top Gear played off the underdog fact by failing constantly and spectacularily, now that the new cast are literally underdogs, they shout as if they're the best thing around.
>>
>>15170855
Oh, yeah, no, I don't take the bet. You are right.

The Range Rover versus the autonomous land tank giant thing (forget what it was) was one of my favorites of those.
>>
>>15170366
>They should just ditch the national pride and have Matt as the main host, also ditch that smarmy Chris Evans.

They can keep the national pride because there's tons of presenters that would do a good job at fronting TG. They just happened to pick the worst fuckhead the UK has spawned in the last 100 years.
>>
>>15165649
A guy on /r/topgear was at the studio recording, he said they actually did make sure there was diversive crowd on camera. He said they would move them around for different shots so they could always be seen.
>>
>>15171044
Fucking Common Purpose twats.
