Chris Eveans is out: Chris Evans Is Out At Top Gear

and he is under investigation for a old sexual assault: Chris Evans Stepped Down From Top Gear After Police Confirmed Sex Assault Investigation

i was just saying on saturday to some friends that Chis Evans is making me seriously hate top gear.

i am so excite!

I can only imagine how great Clarkson Hammond & May are feeling as they see what has become a BBC train wreck.

Watching the finale Extra Gear now, nice segment with them chatting and shooting the shit, obviously not scripted like the 'friendly banter' during the news of the old Top Gear.

Once the get more rapport with each other and better writers, it may have promise.

Yeah, I gotta say I'm glad Evans is out. Something really disingenuous about that guy. And lo and behold, he's being investigated for sexual assault and thinks it's funny to whip his penis out.

But they apparently aren't replacing him. Matt LeBlanc has grown on me, but I still think he's super low energy, like a James May vibe, but the show still needs the Clarkson or Hammond energy to match the quintessential TG car footage.
Maybe let Chris Harris step up?

Edit: Viewership numbers....brutal.

Epi 5 was pretty good. Other than the parts with them talking about the look of the dawn in studio it wasn't awkward.

Interviews are still an instant skip. More so than the old TG.

Ex-BBC Boss Admits Firing Jeremy Clarkson Was A Dumb Mistake

Reeyal 08-23-2016 05:39 AM

I don't understand...
How is physical violence an answer to anything in a corporate environment.
When you "punch" someone, there is no way you'll continue to work for the same company.

MarkyMark 08-23-2016 07:26 AM

It wasn't a dumb mistake it was necessary. It was just unfortunate for the BBC because you can't exactly replace someone like and continue on with the same success.

Ronin 08-23-2016 10:51 AM

There wasn't really anything they could do about it...they had to let him go. They didn't really have a choice even though they knew Clarkson could just make another show and more money.

You'll have some nice content to watch around the holidays.

The wait will be worth it... :awwyeah:

bcuzracecarz 10-01-2016 04:48 PM

Lol so good


Ronin 10-02-2016 08:14 AM

Lol it's basically the same show. Love it.

extracrunchie 10-02-2016 02:04 PM

Kinda hard to hear their commentary, I assume when hammond was talking about the corvette that was intentional.

But its hard to hear over the engine noise like in the intro.

‘The Grand Tour’ Cast Set To Battle For Podium On ‘The Late Late Show’

How can you take a cast of three funny Brits and make them even funnier? By adding another Brit, apparently.

Jeremy Clarkson, James May and Richard Hammond are set to star in Monday’s episode of “The Late Late Show” with James Corden, Corden announced in a tweet. The trio is still in the U.S. following filming of the first episode of “The Grand Tour.”

Just like they did in “Top Gear,” Clarkson, Hammond and May are squaring off to win something, we’re just not quite sure of what it is yet.

The episode is set to air Monday night stateside, and Wednesday night in the U.K.

This could very well be a preview of what we’ll see when “The Grand Tour” debuts on Amazon Prime later this fall. Personally, we wouldn’t mind seeing Corden on a few episodes of the new motoring show. Considering how funny it was when Corden took on “Top Gear” host Matt LeBlanc in a battle of toy bikes, and considering how funny that was, we hope these pairings happen more often.
