oh well... atleast he had a pair and has an opinion.
too many politically correct/sensitive/pansies/hipsters these days. i may not have agreed with all his tastes (ie aston martin's) but atleast him and the rest of the topgear group gave a relatively decent car review. famous people in beaters is always great too. |

The show is nothing without him. Hope they can come to an agreement. The US Top Gear sucks

This will last about a week until they realize they have to bring him back. There is already a petition going around with 400,000+ signatures to have him reinstated. I don't think the BBC has the balls to replace him.

The show will go on.
If it tanks, I'm happy to say I got to see Top Gear UK filmed live with the whole cast

He used to own the rights to the show. He sold the rights to BBC a few years ago for big $$$$ From what I read. They still own him alot. Yes, he can be a bit of an a$$. Also he is like sandpaper. Depends on what side you are on when he starts to rub. LOL IMO, he makes the show. He also decked Piers Morgan during an interview years ago. 'bout knocked him out. LMAO
The US version plane sucks donkey balls.

Yeesh. Frankly, I think James May is the best overall entertainer/presenter of the lot (definitely check out Man Lab and the hilarious and informative Oz and James series of shows), and Hammond is -- off script -- probably the funniest and cleverest, but Jeremy pretty much IS Top Gear.
Without Jeremy it will be something different, but it will take a lot of work to make it as good or better -- there's a great chemistry between the three of them, but Jeremy can pretty much carry the show on his own charisma (or maybe, "miasma"?), whereas I don't think the other lads can make it work without him. Their few "specials" that have been without Jeremy have not been all that great.... it will be interesting to see how this all plays out. As James said "...he's a nob... but I quite like him".
