Top Gear!
« on: June 27, 2013, 04:21:20 PM »
Just a heads up to all you fanatical fans: New season starts 07/08 @ 2030 Hrs.
Personally, I do not understand how a bunch of people demanding a bigger govt can call themselves anarchist.

We are talking about the BBC version, right?

The US version was just painful to watch....  [barf]

Impressed yet befogged, they grasped at his vivid leading phrases, seeing only their surface meaning, and missing the deeper current of his thought.

Yes, on the BBC! Whenever I think of Top Gear, the US [barf] version doesn't even come to mind.

Ready for it.

Truly one of the best shows on TV of any stripe.

I tried watching the US version once. I made it 10 minutes before I started weeping in rage and turned the channel.

My only hope is that the British series hosts the US series (much as they did with the Germans and Aussies in seasons past)...

And kill them.

You can catch previous episodes on Netflix.

If you want it even sooner, the first episode actually airs in the UK this Sunday. Torrents are usually available around 8pm est.
I prefer the UK direct show because it has the original music. They have to change it all for the version they air here. Can make a big difference in the show, especially when one of the hosts makes a reference to a song that's not playing on the version you're watching.

Watched all the available episodes on da 'Flix over the last few weeks. Love that show. And I love how they get into "trouble" with various professional whiners.

The one segment I want to see, I can't seem to find.  It's the one where Jeremy is testing a Mercedes that comes with a warning letter.  He reads it, in the way only he can, then deadpans a "Sounds dangerous" and immediately breaks out in a huge, cheesy grin.

Mercedes CLK63 AMG Black series.  I loved that review.
