Anyone else noticed they look like (from right to left) a cheap Tom Cruise lookalike, a Brad Pitt/Ray Liotta hybrid and the bastard child of Rod Hull (and Emu probably)

Wankers!

that Ray Liotta double had some carpenter show on TV

Great, from woodwork to plastic motors, i’m sure he’ll be great fun. Maybe he’s good at making go-carts or something.

Let’s be honest, the americans couldn’t do Python humour if they tried. I’m sure the only reason they laughed at the original is because there was a laughter track telling them when to do so.

After watching one of their shows with me, my mum wanted to take me to the school psychologist.

Right, because Americans are neither funny nor smart. the guy on the left I believe is Adam Carolla and if you ever watched the original Man Show, that shit was funnier than hell.  we just don’t understand a lot of your humor because you guys make up weird ass words to use to describe things.

These other versions of ‘Top Gear’...they are gonna have be clever with who they choose as presenters or it just won’t work…

I think they should just get the originals to do all the shows…fly them over…

The other presenters are just gonna ‘act’ like Clarkson, Hammond and James May…and people will see that and just turn off…

LOS ANGELES (Hollywood Reporter) - NBC announced Monday morning what listeners to Adam Carolla’s radio show have known for a while: The comedian will host the broadcaster’s adaptation of the BBC’s “Top Gear.”

Carolla will join drift racer Tanner Foust and TV construction guru Eric Stromer as the show’s presenters. “Gear” targets auto enthusiasts and mixes racing, stunts, challenges and celebrity guests.

NBC announced the show as a pilot in the winter, but the project has not yet been added to the network’s year-round schedule, which was unveiled in May.

The original “Gear” premiered in 1977 and is BBC 2’s most-watched program in the U.K. The show is broadcast in more than 100 countries and has been airing on BBC America since 2007.

Be interesting to watch this version of “Gear” - not quite sure what a ‘TV construction guru’ will bring to the table though…

Cheers,
SD

It’s not the we make up weird ‘ass’ (arse to all us English folk) words, we just don’t need to simplify everything so people can understand it, and don’t get me started on Americans and irony…......
