It was hard to go into this without prejudice....really hard. I've been watching Top Gear since the beginning. How do you replace Clarkson? Every thing that comes out of his mouth is recockulous. How do you recreate the nuanced banter between the trio without introducing a scripted feel to it all? Clarkson, May, and Hammond are like fraternal triplets.... they know exactly how to push each others buttons. How do you come up with insane stunts that often require breaking both written laws and physical laws? The answer is that you don't. Don't copy the original. Top Gear is something special that is impossible to recreate. Come up with something new. I hope that Top Gear America will do just that...quit trying to copy. It's obviously lame. I have hope that the producer are smart enough to create something new out of this. Hate to see this fail.
