I DO NOT THINK A US VERSION OF TOP GEAR WILL WORK, PARTICULARLY IF IT IS GOING TO BE ON A BIG TIME NETWORK. PART OF THE BRILLIANCE OF TOP GEAR IS THAT THEY CALL IT AS THEY SEE IT AND AREN’T AFRAID TO BE CRITICAL IF THEY DON’T LIKE A PARTICULAR CAR (ANYONE REMEMBER THE GT500 EPISODE…ouch) THE US IS MUCH TO P.C. AND SENSITIVE FOR THAT KIND OF CRITIQUE, AND FOR IT WE WILL HAVE A WATERED DOWN VERSION OF TOP GEAR.
Nah, Americans want the honest truth, that’s why it get’s people mad when a show like this shows obvious bias towards certain cars.
