No Top Gear until 2013

"It looks like we’ll have quite a long wait until the return of Top Gear. In a recent interview with a South African radio show, Clarkson mentioned that Top Gear won’t be returning this year, presumably due to the Olympics."

NOOOOO! They better have a long season in 2013! This is the intersect between my boyfriend's love of cars and my love of British humor... I need a few Eps of Top Gear on the PVR to be the neutral zone for after a fight!

Jalopnik reported it's not because of the Olympics, but due to Simon Cowell's new show or some shit which just happens to be airing the same time TG was supposed to.

Quote:
Jeremy Clarkson just confirmed our report about there being no more Top Gear until 2013 is true, although the reason is not the Olympics. It's Simon Cowell.
Yesterday, we reported that the Jezza let slip on a South African radio show that they weren't going to be showing any Top Gear in the fall, meaning we'd have to wait until January to get our fix.

People threatened to jump off things. Others tried to find some way to deny it. Denial was strong with fans of the British motoring show, but in typical Clarkson fashion he took to his very real Twitter account to say "it's true."


The "fat people singing" is probably a cruel reference to Susan Boyle and Cowell's show Britain's Got Talent. Or one of the like 60 other shows Cowell produces.

Oh Jezza, never change.
You can see Clarkson's tweets in the article,

can't believe they'll skip TG for a season because of a Simon cowell show..i mean for crying out loud it's one of the most viewed tv series..cowell must have paid BBC big bucks for it.

gonna watch some of the earlier seasons then...i start TG at season 12 and I just finished S1 few weeks ago.

is pre2002 old top gear any good? I would give it a try but i probably can't stand the horrible video quality...

the original Top Gear is more like a normal car review show. Think "Fifth Gear". you can see Tiff Needel hooning/drifting around, which is always fun.
