Looks like Jackass Top Gear Edition.

Ha ha. That's exactly what I thought!

Doesn't that scare the shit out of you?

The contest to see who can stick his dick in an exhaust pipe the longest would no doubt rate its socks off.

Hell, they start things off by having a Cobra attackhelicopter chase a Dodge Viper through a small town.

Bad move.

Biggest problem with Top Gear is that they did so much crazy shit you just don't care anymore. The show is oversaturated with ridiculous stunts, when they should be just a bonus to reviews, something extra to do once per season.

If Top Gear US starts with the same foot right off the bat, it will get old very fast, and instantenously for those who follow the original.

So has anyone else seen the US version yet?(http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Goa7PDR1rqc&feature=related) Trailer

It's undoubtedly not as good as the UK version, but some of the events have been fairly clever (I was a big fan of them teaching a blind man to drift.)

Also, as snowboarding is a major pastime of mine, they had me sold when they raced a Mitsubishi Lancer Evo against skiers on the mountain. There has been no advertisement in the world that has made me want to buy a car more than seeing that Evo coasting through a foot of snow.

Ho hum, not convinced about the three amigos they've found but we shall see.

Man. You find something to complain about with everything don't you?

"I don't like Top Gear, it's too entertaining!"

I think fuckface is under the impression that it's just a review show or something. Why do you even pay attention to him?

If I want to watch privileged retards with nauseating hair wave their penis substitutes about while you pretend they're not doing coke, I just go out in Dalston. Don't get the appeal. Mythbusters is clearly the thinking mans version.
