Top Gear

I inquired in another thread about Top Gear. Some dude responded telling me that I should just 'check it out' and that he didnt even like cars but loves the show. I bought in, watched one episode and now I'm getting all of the eps I can. Curses to you all. Curses.

 
then you get hyped over the cars with time and then you will find fifth gear, same as top gear, just not as funny, a little bit more about the cars, but basicly more of the same

Meh.

Fifth Gear's driving usually involves seeing who can hold a power slide around a corner the longest. Yeah, great, that really tests all aspects of the car, well done guys.

I'm sorry, but it really is the poor-man's Top Gear. It's for people who don't like, or disagree with, Jeremy Clarkson. The Top Gear presenters are every bit as good drivers as the Fifth Gear guys, and they don't have hugely annoying personality traits. i.e. Tiff's awful way of talking (listen to the pitch of his voice throughout a sentance), Vicky's "giggly-girly" presenting style :roll:...

The only guy I like on that is the third presenter. I forget his name, but he's an ex-BTCC driver, and he's very likeable, as well as being an excellent driver.

Plus, Fifth Gear don't have the same features that Top Gear manage to come up with. The best thing they've done so far was to see how a car reacts when hitting a specially-designed lamp-post. Whoo. Yay.

Oh, and the white-haired John guy that occasionally shoves his ugly mug in front of the camera from time-to-time is an arse. "Computer" is not pronounced "comm......pyoooooter", retard.
 
I just wish that I knew more of their cultural references... I think the only celeb name that I recognized on their lap board was Christian Slater.

Nah, they're just making references to peoples names that I've never heard... or even the celeb in 6x1 I had no clue who he was.

Heh, James Nesbitt is an Irish comedian/actor, who's done some very funny programs for TV, including Cold Feet. 🙂

When he gets going, he's hilarious; deadpan humour suits him well.

Fifth gear blows, I downloaded 2 episodes of it and I had to delete it.

Doesn't have the same appeal.
