I enjoyed last season well enough, even though I thought the finale was pretty lame. I'll give them a watch. :shrug:

Correct, wonder if it will just be more like the American Top Gear was. Just narrations.

Correct.

... the trio are hitting the road as they focus on big-budget specials to be shown over the next two years.

Jeremy Clarkson has pulled the plug on studio car shows — and said: “There are only so many times you can watch a BMW go round the track.” ...

That's one hell of a bombshell to end on

Just watched the first episode of season 3 yesterday. Reminded me of old top gear a lot more. No over the top shenanigans and they seem to be finding their rhythm again. Still not to old top gear levels, but better than I remember GT being in a bit. Waiting to see how the rest of the season goes however.

Only part that really felt a bit off still is the obviously overly scripted conversation street thing they do.

I did enjoy the first episode of the season, a lot more than the previous episodes. It was also cool to see them in Detroit, and going to places I've been before.

I watched the first episode today as well, I really do like them when they are in their groove.

2nd episode is back to the formula of forced buffoonery. Not pleased.

Was also filmed awhile ago. While they were still doing all that. Was supposed to be released last year I think. Overall I thought it was ok. Not too over the top as was towards the end of their top gear years. At least didn't seem so to me

So I saw the episode they blew up his house and they keep talking about it. Surely it was gonna be distroyed anyways? Or they paid him for it? Anyone know the backstory?

I thought episodes 2 & 3 were OK. Columbia is a beautiful country though.

So far, besides the obvious over the top stuff from the Columbia special, I think this is the best season yet. Still not great, but hell of a lot better than previous.
