Thoughts? IMO the best episodes are better than the good top

Felt too scripted and aimed at low brow American viewers.

The beach buggy episodes were kino, the rest was average.

agreed, those were the worst bits. the parts that felt natural were great but some of the more scripted things were terrible

>IMO the best episodes are better than the good top gear and the worst are about the same as average tg
pretty accurate but some parts of the eps are just cringe worthy and worse than the worst parts of topgear. at least its easy to skip ahead and the majority is passable.

Eh its the first season, I imagine amazon had a bit too much control seeing as they spent a metric fucking ton of money on them and the show

It will only get better once the producers and stuff learn the ropes and possibly give more control to the three

Enjoyable
But dumbed down and over scripted.
Ford vs Ferrari at LeMans was an awesome mini doc. James should narrate more motorsport films.

The beach buggy episode was boring as shit.
You could tell the "racing the tide" bit was faked, they just intentionally drove through the water and made whinging noises, there was literally at least a car width of dry beach they could've driven on.

i don't see the appeal, but i also don't jerk off to cars or middle-aged men.

*tips

the american influence is very noticeable and not in a good way. the color grading is a mess at times. the jokes are forced.

Literally all they have to do is drive cheap beaters & compare them, why is this so hard & expensive? The segment will naturally have humor because, cheap beaters. I should be both accountant & writer for the flick.

Not as good as 2007-2014 Top Gear but still entertaining. And those scripted fights with the audience are really lame.

it's just alright...i feel like they picked up where they left off with some exceptions not every episode can be a series 10 episode
