I'd still like to see some original ideas. The average person may not have seen every Top Gear but the huge portion of their initial audience likely has. Every American TG fan likely tuned in only to see the same things being done.

Either way, we'll see how this show pans out over the long run. I still doubt we'll ever get an honest opinion about cars as long as they have car manufacturers as advertisers.

Btw, I just noticed BBC America cuts 10-15 minutes out of TG UK so they can squeeze in commercials. Kind of lame.
