The Grand Tour started out slow but turned out awesome. At least 2 more seasons left.

The TopGear season 24 trailer looks good. Now that Evans got the boot it should be decent.

I think we're in for 2 sweet car shows for a few years.

I absolutely loved Top Gear but I really believe that show died the second that they fired Jeremy Clarkson. Clarkson, Hammond and May were Top Gear and anything else is just am imitation. The first season of Grand Tour was pretty good.. maybe a little rough around the edges but will only improve with time.

TG will be good this season without Evans.

BLKROKT

Agree. Harris is more than capable of carrying a show, and has better technical and driving chops than any of the old crew.

CarHopper

Grand Tour can lose celebrity brain crash and the American. Those bits suck. Better variety of cars also but it has only been one season.

Jasonoff

+1

Lots of people have been b¡tching on prime so I'm sure they'll dump it.

Although, the Ricciardo bit was "almost" funny...

I generally like The Grand Tour, here is what I don't like

1. Celebrity Brain Crash - was funny ONCE!
2. The Fat American - was funny NEVER!
3. GT test track is rubbish and if it is raining don't test a car, it is pointless and nothing can be compared.
4. When you go to somewhere (like Dubai this week), maybe film the show there, instead of having one 90 second segment and everything else is somewhere else.

TG got rid of the main issue, don't really like LeBlanc either, but we will see how it goes this year, Chris Harris is the man, they need to put him front and center.

The American was OK just because he could drive well. I know there's lots of people who can but he did the job fine IMO.

Celeb brain crash yea got old quick.

I expected them to film AT their locations when they were first talking about it. Kind of a let down that they don't but footage was great.

The trio honestly is what made top gear. I was watching the first few seasons of Top Gear and even then they were comfortable together. The new Top Gear seemed awkward.

Might be a lone wolf here but I hate Chris Harris.

Jasonoff

You should re-watch the first few seasons of TG. It was awkward...

Adi-Benz

Just watched them dude; referring to 2002+

Yeah the music was weird LOL but no they were fine together. Leblanc and Evans were soooooooooooooooooooooooooo awkward you could see it and hear it in Leblancs voice when he was asking Evans how "the car" was.

When TG came out, I tried watching it with that ginger douche and I just couldn't stand his face/voice, made me want to punch something. I even tried watching with the sound muted...helped some but the show was still pretty boring. The only parts I liked were Chris and Rory, good to see Chris move on to other parts/shows as well.

TGT I agree could lose some bits and add some others but the visual aspect/cinematography of it is amazing, movie quality. I have only been able to watch a couple of episodes but so far it's great to have the trio back.

Seriously how does Chris Evans (Ginger Douche) have any type of a career in media - doesn't he have some giant radio show - hearing that guy come out of my radio would make me want to kill someone - what is wrong with the Brit's that have made that guy millions by listening to him on the radio!

INS1GNIA

I was really surprised to hear about him having a radio show. I read reviews of his show and they say it is tolerable/good. I just can't imagine that lol.

I have enjoyed TGT.
To be honest, I have only watched one episode of TG since the original crew left. Just couldn't get into it.

Jasonoff

It got a little better and you could tell there was chemistry between the others when Evans was excluded.

My guess is a drastic improvement for in S24.

Meeyatch1

I follow Clarkson wherever he goes for a car show. Loved Top Gear when he, May, and Hammond were there. Clarkson's Top Gear review is quite literally what caused me to buy my Black Series. Did not bother watching Top Gear after he left. Grand Tour is good, but not as good as when they did Top Gear.

Jasonoff

So TG S24E01 was decent. Quite the improvement over S23 with Evans gone.

Adi-Benz

Will check it out. When does TGT S2 come out?

Jasonoff

So, I'm really enjoying S24 of TG. I actually like it better than the first season of TGT.

Shots fired... lol

SuperFastYo

I enjoyed TGT... but seriously... get rid of that dumb celebrity brain crash bit. It was funny the very first time, amusing the second, annoying the third & cant tell you about the rest because I just skipped ahead on the video for em.

It will never happen those 3 are a package deal and if one goes they all go. They understand the meaning of loyalty.
