so what makes it crap? How many episodes or series have you watched to determine its crap? The challenges/production is on par with TGUK. So it is just the presenters?

I have watched quite a few episodes - is crap and on par with the Aussie version.

It is just plain awful.

I think for me its the presenters.The yanks get hold of a show and put their own spin on it to suit other yanks,however its just not to my taste.Top gear aust.was't bad,you could see they were trying,but no where near as good as the original.The chemistry between Clarkson,Hammond and May just can't be equaled.Of course thats just my opinion,:p

How many episodes, how long ago and what makes it crap? I ask purely because Im interested as I think it is a good show. Hosts are like able, they drive great cars, interesting challenges etc. Leaves AustTG and Fifth gear for dead. So what exactly is crap about it. Or is it crap cause it doesn't have a cuppla English chappies on it ;)

I think TG USA is soooooooooooo much better than Aus version.
Very culturally US but right for their market.
TG Aus did not get that TG is not a car show. ;)

I watched about 10 minutes last week as it is currently running on TV - how many episodes - dunno - I don't count them - they usually get turned off once I have had enough of those awful presenters.

You like it - great - go watch crap.

At the moment you are out voted 2 to 1 so crap has the mandate.:)

For me, in order of preference:

TG (the real one)
Daylight
TG USA
Getting my fingernails pulled out.
TG Australia.

Exactly the same for me. :Rolling::BigThumb:
