    Another Top Gear Australia Embarrassment

    What a joke I am honestly embarrassed to be Australian nothing good can be said about this show.

    Firstly I blame the writers for trying to copy what is one of the best shows on TV and adapt it to suit 3 no talent no hopers and expect them in some way to entertain.

    Secondly I blame the same 3 for thinking they can.

    Production standards have improved with this second series that is all.

    very very very poor effort

    Steve

    Agreed
    If you don't like trucks, stop buying stuff.

    Thumbs up

    Well I think it is quite good for their budget and time they have been at it.
    Look at some earlier English ones?

    James Morrison is great.

    Cheers

    You know, I firmly believe that Holden sponsors this show in a significant way. Their cars get on there way to often to be coincidence, the guys really don't criticise them, its more a case of offerring a guarded 'this isn't great, but if you change this, or change that model its all good". Finally, Morrison just happens to fly to USA to laud the Holden as a pontiac. You gotta wonder who payed for the trip.

    Unfortunately as for the rest of the show, it has regressed from the early promise it showed this season.
    Script : crap.
    The guys still look like they're in a bad pantomime.
    Really idiotic challenges.

    God the humour when Pizzaboy took the window out of the LAwnmower Hilux. I could barely contain myself.

    Lasted 15mins tonight!

    I'm annoyed that the UK one is off air, and that we are way behind what has ben shown in the UK.

    Sorry guys, but it seems to me to be a "wannabe" show.
    Just doesn't cut it.

    let's face it we don't have the population to fund SBS being able to drive real supercars etc. the way they do on the UK show, and the market here is not worth real supercar manufacturers risking one of their cars.
    I have found it embarassing to watch as an Australian.

    just my opinion

    I thought it might have been starting to shape up reasonably well until they decided to have HG Nelson as their guest in a reasonably priced car.

    Must be scraping the bottom of the barrel for guests already.
