I agree.
All in all, not bad for a first episode. I think we're all going to be somewhat biased by our affection for the UK hosts though, especially considering Clarkson's performance is usually spot-on. TGUK has had plenty of time to develop its style too, with plenty of vignetting, high contrast and low saturation, and some extremely well done editing.
I'll continue to watch all the episodes and support the series. I'd like to see it build up to be something big. The hosts really need to build up their own attitude though. I like Tanner for his skills and know-how, but he's too formal with his presentation. The other two actually pissed me off with their complete lack of knowledge in terms of driving. Short shifted the hell out of those Lambos.
I hope everybody continues to give the series a chance.
